Manage Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL resources with Azure Resource Manager templates

APPLIES TO: NoSQL

In this article, you learn how to use Azure Resource Manager templates to help deploy and manage your Azure Cosmos DB accounts, databases, and containers.

This article only shows Azure Resource Manager template examples for API for NoSQL accounts. You can also find template examples for Cassandra, Gremlin, MongoDB, and Table APIs.

Important

  • Account names are limited to 44 characters, all lowercase.
  • To change the throughput values, redeploy the template with updated RU/s.
  • When you add or remove locations to an Azure Cosmos DB account, you can't simultaneously modify other properties. These operations must be done separately.
  • To provision throughput at the database level and share across all containers, apply the throughput values to the database options property.

To create any of the Azure Cosmos DB resources below, copy the following example template into a new json file. You can optionally create a parameters json file to use when deploying multiple instances of the same resource with different names and values. There are many ways to deploy Azure Resource Manager templates including, Azure portal, Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell and GitHub.

Azure Cosmos DB account with autoscale throughput

This template creates an Azure Cosmos DB account in two regions with options for consistency and failover, with database and container configured for autoscale throughput that has most policy options enabled. This template is also available for one-click deploy from Azure Quickstart Templates Gallery.

Note

You can use Azure Resource Manager templates update the autoscale max RU/s setting on an database and container resources already configured with autoscale. Migrating between manual and autoscale throughput is a POST operation and not supported with Azure Resource Manager templates. To migrate throughput use Azure CLI or PowerShell.
