Azure.ResourceManager.CosmosDB (.NET)

Management plane SDK for provisioning and managing Azure Cosmos DB resources via Azure Resource Manager.

⚠️ Management vs Data Plane
- This SDK (Azure.ResourceManager.CosmosDB): Create accounts, databases, containers, configure throughput, manage RBAC
- Data Plane SDK (Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos): CRUD operations on documents, queries, stored procedures execution

Installation

bash
dotnet add package Azure.ResourceManager.CosmosDB
dotnet add package Azure.Identity

Version scope: Imported examples are historical and are not a current-version declaration; pin and compile against the intended SDK. Required common imports include Azure, Azure.Core and Azure.ResourceManager.Resources.

Environment Variables

bash
AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=<your-subscription-id>
# For service principal auth (optional)
AZURE_TENANT_ID=<tenant-id>
AZURE_CLIENT_ID=<client-id>
AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET=<client-secret>

Authentication

csharp
using Azure.Identity;
using Azure.ResourceManager;
using Azure.ResourceManager.CosmosDB;
// Choose the intended tenant/identity explicitly; DefaultAzureCredential is convenient for local development.
var credential = new DefaultAzureCredential();
var armClient = new ArmClient(credential);
// Get subscription
var subscriptionId = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID");
var subscription = armClient.GetSubscriptionResource(
new ResourceIdentifier($"/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}"));

Resource Hierarchy

ArmClient
└── SubscriptionResource
└── ResourceGroupResource
└── CosmosDBAccountResource
├── CosmosDBSqlDatabaseResource
│ └── CosmosDBSqlContainerResource
│ ├── CosmosDBSqlStoredProcedureResource
│ ├── CosmosDBSqlTriggerResource
│ └── CosmosDBSqlUserDefinedFunctionResource
├── CassandraKeyspaceResource
├── GremlinDatabaseResource
├── MongoDBDatabaseResource
└── CosmosDBTableResource

Confirm subscription, tenant, region, exact resources, budget and network/retention policy before provisioning. Deletion/failover/rotation require explicit authorization; ARM RBAC and data-plane RBAC are separate.

Core Workflow

1. Create Cosmos DB Account
csharp
using Azure.ResourceManager.CosmosDB;
using Azure.ResourceManager.CosmosDB.Models;
// Get resource group
var resourceGroup = await subscription
.GetResourceGroupAsync("my-resource-group");
// Define account
var accountData = new CosmosDBAccountCreateOrUpdateContent(
location: AzureLocation.EastUS,
locations: new[]
{
new CosmosDBAccountLocation
{
LocationName = AzureLocation.EastUS,
FailoverPriority = 0,
IsZoneRedundant = false
}
})
{
Kind = CosmosDBAccountKind.GlobalDocumentDB,
ConsistencyPolicy = new ConsistencyPolicy(DefaultConsistencyLevel.Session),
EnableAutomaticFailover = true
};
// Create account (long-running operation)
var accountCollection = resourceGroup.Value.GetCosmosDBAccounts();
var operation = await accountCollection.CreateOrUpdateAsync(
WaitUntil.Completed,
"my-cosmos-account",
accountData);
CosmosDBAccountResource account = operation.Value;
2. Create SQL Database
csharp
var databaseData = new CosmosDBSqlDatabaseCreateOrUpdateContent(
new CosmosDBSqlDatabaseResourceInfo("my-database"));
var databaseCollection = account.GetCosmosDBSqlDatabases();
var dbOperation = await databaseCollection.CreateOrUpdateAsync(
WaitUntil.Completed,
"my-database",
databaseData);
CosmosDBSqlDatabaseResource database = dbOperation.Value;
3. Create SQL Container
csharp
var containerData = new CosmosDBSqlContainerCreateOrUpdateContent(
new CosmosDBSqlContainerResourceInfo("my-container")
{
PartitionKey = new CosmosDBContainerPartitionKey
{
Paths = { "/partitionKey" },
Kind = CosmosDBPartitionKind.Hash
},
IndexingPolicy = new CosmosDBIndexingPolicy
{
Automatic = true,
IndexingMode = CosmosDBIndexingMode.Consistent
},
DefaultTtl = 86400 // 24 hours
});
var containerCollection = database.GetCosmosDBSqlContainers();
var containerOperation = await containerCollection.CreateOrUpdateAsync(
WaitUntil.Completed,
"my-container",
containerData);
CosmosDBSqlContainerResource container = containerOperation.Value;
4. Configure Throughput
csharp
// Manual throughput
var throughputData = new ThroughputSettingsUpdateData(
new ThroughputSettingsResourceInfo
{
Throughput = 400
});
// Autoscale throughput
var autoscaleData = new ThroughputSettingsUpdateData(
new ThroughputSettingsResourceInfo
{
AutoscaleSettings = new AutoscaleSettingsResourceInfo
{
MaxThroughput = 4000
}
});
// Apply to database
await database.CreateOrUpdateCosmosDBSqlDatabaseThroughputAsync(
WaitUntil.Completed,
throughputData);
5. Get Connection Information
csharp
// Get keys
var keys = await account.GetKeysAsync();
// Pass the key directly to an approved secret store; never print it.
// Get connection strings
var connectionStrings = await account.GetConnectionStringsAsync();
foreach (var cs in connectionStrings.Value.ConnectionStrings)
{
Console.WriteLine($"Connection available: {cs.Description} (value redacted)");
}

Best Practices

  1. Use `WaitUntil.Completed` for operations that must finish before proceeding
  2. Use `WaitUntil.Started` when you want to poll manually or run operations in parallel
  3. Use a deliberate credential chain — prefer managed identity in production; never hardcode keys
  4. Handle `RequestFailedException` for ARM API errors
  5. Review the full desired state before `CreateOrUpdateAsync` — repeated requests may converge but updates can change networking, retention and cost
  6. Navigate hierarchy via Get* methods (e.g., account.GetCosmosDBSqlDatabases())

Error Handling

csharp
using Azure;
try
{
var operation = await accountCollection.CreateOrUpdateAsync(
WaitUntil.Completed, accountName, accountData);
}
catch (RequestFailedException ex) when (ex.Status == 409)
{
Console.WriteLine("Conflict: inspect the error code and current resource; 409 does not prove the requested account already exists");
}
catch (RequestFailedException ex)
{
Console.WriteLine($"ARM Error: {ex.Status} - {ex.ErrorCode}");
}
