Quickstart: Azure Cosmos DB for Table library for Python

  • Grein

APPLIES TO: Table

This quickstart shows how to get started with the Azure Cosmos DB for Table from a Python application. The Azure Cosmos DB for Table is a schemaless data store allowing applications to store structured table data in the cloud. You learn how to create tables, rows, and perform basic tasks within your Azure Cosmos DB resource using the Azure SDK for Python.

Prerequisites

Initialize the project

Use the Azure Developer CLI (azd) to create an Azure Cosmos DB for Table account and deploy a containerized sample application. The sample application uses the client library to manage, create, read, and query sample data.

  1. Open a terminal in an empty directory.

  2. If you're not already authenticated, authenticate to the Azure Developer CLI using azd auth login. Follow the steps specified by the tool to authenticate to the CLI using your preferred Azure credentials.

  3. Use azd init to initialize the project.

    azd init --template cosmos-db-table-python-quickstart

  4. During initialization, configure a unique environment name.

  5. Deploy the Azure Cosmos DB account using azd up. The Bicep templates also deploy a sample web application.

  6. During the provisioning process, select your subscription, desired location, and target resource group. Wait for the provisioning process to complete. The process can take approximately five minutes.

  7. Once the provisioning of your Azure resources is done, a URL to the running web application is included in the output.

  (✓) Done: Deploying service web
- Endpoint: <https://[container-app-sub-domain].azurecontainerapps.io>

SUCCESS: Your application was provisioned and deployed to Azure in 5 minutes 0 seconds.

  8. Use the URL in the console to navigate to your web application in the browser. Observe the output of the running app.

Clean up resources

When you no longer need the sample application or resources, remove the corresponding deployment and all resources.
