Pricing

Cloud Shell is a free service. You only pay for the underlying Azure resources that are consumed.

Compute cost

Azure Cloud Shell runs on a machine provided for free by Azure, but requires an Azure file share to use.

Storage cost

Cloud Shell requires a new or existing Azure Files share to be mounted to persist files across sessions. Storage incurs regular costs. For pricing information, see Azure Files Pricing.

Network costs

For standard Cloud Shell sessions, there are no network costs.

If you have deployed Azure Cloud Shell in a private virtual network, you pay for network resources. For pricing information, see Virtual Network Pricing.
