Azure AuthorizationManagement client library for JavaScript

This package contains an isomorphic SDK (runs both in Node.js and in browsers) for Azure AuthorizationManagement client.

Attribute namespaces provide a way to organize attributes associated with Federated Managed Identities. These attributes can also be used in attribute-based access control conditions in Azure role assignments. These operations enable users to manage attribute namespaces at the provider level to guarantee tenant-level uniqueness.

Getting started

Currently supported environments

See our support policy for more details.

Prerequisites

Install the @azure/arm-authorization package

Install the Azure AuthorizationManagement client library for JavaScript with npm:

npm install @azure/arm-authorization

Create and authenticate a AuthorizationManagementClient

To create a client object to access the Azure AuthorizationManagement API, you will need the endpoint of your Azure AuthorizationManagement resource and a credential. The Azure AuthorizationManagement client can use Azure Active Directory credentials to authenticate. You can find the endpoint for your Azure AuthorizationManagement resource in the Azure Portal.

You can authenticate with Azure Active Directory using a credential from the @azure/identity library or an existing AAD Token.

To use the DefaultAzureCredential provider shown below, or other credential providers provided with the Azure SDK, please install the @azure/identity package:

npm install @azure/identity

You will also need to register a new AAD application and grant access to Azure AuthorizationManagement by assigning the suitable role to your service principal (note: roles such as "Owner" will not grant the necessary permissions).

For more information about how to create an Azure AD Application check out this guide.

Using Node.js and Node-like environments, you can use the DefaultAzureCredential class to authenticate the client.

import { AuthorizationManagementClient } from "@azure/arm-authorization";
import { DefaultAzureCredential } from "@azure/identity";

const subscriptionId = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000";
const client = new AuthorizationManagementClient(new DefaultAzureCredential(), subscriptionId);

For browser environments, use the InteractiveBrowserCredential from the @azure/identity package to authenticate.

import { InteractiveBrowserCredential } from "@azure/identity";
import { AuthorizationManagementClient } from "@azure/arm-authorization";

const credential = new InteractiveBrowserCredential({
  tenantId: "<YOUR_TENANT_ID>",
  clientId: "<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>",
});
const subscriptionId = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000";
const client = new AuthorizationManagementClient(credential, subscriptionId);

JavaScript Bundle

To use this client library in the browser, first you need to use a bundler. For details on how to do this, please refer to our bundling documentation.

Key concepts

AuthorizationManagementClient

AuthorizationManagementClient is the primary interface for developers using the Azure AuthorizationManagement client library. Explore the methods on this client object to understand the different features of the Azure AuthorizationManagement service that you can access.

Use with AI tools

AI coding tools such as VS Code and GitHub Copilot can help you write and debug code that uses this library. See Using the Azure SDK for JavaScript with AI tools for available integrations.

Troubleshooting

Logging

Enabling logging may help uncover useful information about failures. In order to see a log of HTTP requests and responses, set the AZURE_LOG_LEVEL environment variable to info. Alternatively, logging can be enabled at runtime by calling setLogLevel in the @azure/logger:

import { setLogLevel } from "@azure/logger";

setLogLevel("info");

For more detailed instructions on how to enable logs, you can look at the @azure/logger package docs.

Next steps

Please take a look at the samples directory for detailed examples on how to use this library.
