## What it does

The skill focuses on the `Azure.ResourceManager.Fabric` package. It covers creating and deleting Fabric capacities, reading their state, changing SKUs or administrators, and suspending or resuming a capacity. It also guides name-availability checks and SKU discovery through an Azure Resource Manager subscription.

Projects need the `Azure.ResourceManager.Fabric` and `Azure.Identity` packages, along with Azure credentials for authentication. The examples initialize `DefaultAzureCredential` and `ArmClient`, then access resources through a subscription and resource group. Scope matters: this SDK manages capacity resources; workspace and data-item operations call for the Microsoft Fabric REST API or data-plane SDKs.

Install the skill in Claude Code with `npx skills add microsoft/skills --skill azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet -a claude-code`, then place its file at `~/.claude/skills/azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet/SKILL.md`. In production, `DefaultAzureCredential` requires `AZURE_TOKEN_CREDENTIALS=prod`; Azure operations depend on valid credentials.

## Requirements
- Works with: Azure

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add microsoft/skills --skill azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet/

### Codex

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install microsoft/skills azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

**Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/microsoft/skills --path .github/plugins/azure-sdk-dotnet/skills/azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/microsoft/skills/tree/HEAD/.github/plugins/azure-sdk-dotnet/skills/azure-mgmt-fabric-dotnet/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- provision a Microsoft Fabric capacity through Azure Resource Manager
- change a capacity SKU and its administrators
- suspend or resume a Fabric capacity
- check whether a resource name is available
- list capacities and subscription SKUs

## Example prompts
- Write .NET code to create a Microsoft Fabric capacity in a resource group.
- Show how to change a Fabric capacity SKU and add an administrator.
- Add a name-availability check and suspend the capacity.

# Azure.ResourceManager.Fabric (.NET)

Management plane SDK for provisioning and managing Microsoft Fabric capacity resources via Azure Resource Manager.

> **Management Plane Only**
> This SDK manages Fabric *capacities* (compute resources). For working with Fabric workspaces, lakehouses, warehouses, and data items, use the Microsoft Fabric REST API or data plane SDKs.

## Installation

```bash
dotnet add package Azure.ResourceManager.Fabric
dotnet add package Azure.Identity
```

**Current Version**: 1.0.0 (GA - September 2025)  
**API Version**: 2023-11-01  
**Target Frameworks**: .NET 8.0, .NET Standard 2.0

## Environment Variables

```bash
AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=<your-subscription-id> # Required: Azure subscription ID
AZURE_TOKEN_CREDENTIALS=prod  # Required only if DefaultAzureCredential is used in production
AZURE_TENANT_ID=<tenant-id> # For service principal auth (optional)
AZURE_CLIENT_ID=<client-id> # For service principal auth (optional)
AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET=<client-secret> # For service principal auth (optional)
```

## Authentication

```csharp
using Azure.Identity;
using Azure.ResourceManager;
using Azure.ResourceManager.Fabric;

// Local dev: DefaultAzureCredential. Production: set AZURE_TOKEN_CREDENTIALS=prod or AZURE_TOKEN_CREDENTIALS=<specific_credential>
var credential = new DefaultAzureCredential(
    DefaultAzureCredential.DefaultEnvironmentVariableName
);
// Or use a specific credential directly in production:
// See https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/overview/azure/identity-readme?view=azure-dotnet#credential-classes
// var credential = new ManagedIdentityCredential();
var armClient = new ArmClient(credential);

// Get subscription
var subscription = await armClient.GetDefaultSubscriptionAsync();
```

## Resource Hierarchy

```
ArmClient
└── SubscriptionResource
    └── ResourceGroupResource
        └── FabricCapacityResource
```

## Core Workflows

### 1. Create Fabric Capacity

```csharp
using Azure.ResourceManager.Fabric;
using Azure.ResourceManager.Fabric.Models;
using Azure.Core;

// Get resource group
var resourceGroup = await subscription.GetResourceGroupAsync("my-resource-group");

// Define capacity configuration
var administration = new FabricCapacityAdministration(
    new[] { "admin@contoso.com" }  // Capacity administrators (UPNs or object IDs)
);

var properties = new FabricCapacityProperties(administration);
