Update consistency level for an Azure Cosmos DB account with PowerShell
APPLIES TO: NoSQL MongoDB Cassandra Gremlin Table
Note
We recommend that you use the Azure Az PowerShell module to interact with Azure. To get started, see Install Azure PowerShell. To learn how to migrate to the Az PowerShell module, see Migrate Azure PowerShell from AzureRM to Az.
This sample requires Azure PowerShell Az 5.4.0 or later. Run Get-Module -ListAvailable Az
to see which versions are installed.
If you need to install, see Install Azure PowerShell module.
Run Connect-AzAccount to sign in to Azure.
Sample script
Note
You cannot modify regions and change other Azure Cosmos DB account properties in the same operation. These must be done as two separate operations.
Note
This sample demonstrates using a API for NoSQL account. To use this sample for other APIs, copy the related properties and apply to your API-specific script.
