Examples

The example below creates a new Database with an Id property of 'MyDatabase'.

using (DocumentClient client = new DocumentClient(new Uri("service endpoint"), "auth key"))
{
    Database db = await client.CreateDatabaseAsync(new Database { Id = "MyDatabase" });
}

The example below creates a collection within this database with OfferThroughput set to 10000.

DocumentCollection coll = await client.CreateDocumentCollectionAsync(db.SelfLink,
    new DocumentCollection { Id = "MyCollection" }, 
    10000);

The example below queries for a Database by Id to retrieve the SelfLink.

using Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Linq;
Database database = client.CreateDatabaseQuery().Where(d => d.Id == "MyDatabase").AsEnumerable().FirstOrDefault();
string databaseLink = database.SelfLink;

The example below deletes the database using its SelfLink property.

await client.DeleteDatabaseAsync(db.SelfLink);
