Last stable versions of packages that have been provided for usage with Azure and are production-ready. These libraries provide you with similar functionalities to the Preview ones as they allow you to use and consume existing resources and interact with them, for example: upload a blob. They might not implement the [guidelines](https://azure.github.io/azure-sdk/python_introduction.html) or have the same feature set as the Novemeber releases. They do however offer wider coverage of services.

hmm, strange, I thought I updated these, thanks for spotting :)

A new set of management libraries that follow the [Azure SDK Design Guidelines for Python](https://azure.github.io/azure-sdk/python/guidelines/) are now in Public Preview. These new libraries provide a number of core capabilities that are shared amongst all Azure SDKs, including the intuitive Azure Identity library, an HTTP Pipeline with custom policies, error-handling, distributed tracing, and much more.
You can find the list of new packages [on this page](https://azure.github.io/azure-sdk/releases/latest/python.html). Documentation and code samples for these new libraries can be found [here](https://azure.github.io/azure-sdk-for-python)

> NOTE: If you need to ensure your code is ready for production use one of the stable, non-preview libraries.

### Management: Previous Versions
For a complete list of management libraries which enable you to provision and manage Azure resources, please check [here](https://azure.github.io/azure-sdk/releases/latest/all/python.html). They might not have the same feature set as the new releases but they do offer wider coverage of services.
Management libraries can be identified by namespaces that start with `azure-mgmt-`, e.g. `azure-mgmt-compute`

Shall we also have something about "Preview Versions" (I mean our bx versions)? And perhaps in general "preview versions"

Yep!


Libraries which enable you to provision specific resources. They are responsible for directly mirroring and consuming Azure service's REST endpoints. The management libraries use the `azure-mgmt-<service name>` convention for their package names.

Quickstart Tutorial - Resource Management (Preview Libraries)
===============================================================

We are excited to announce that a new set of management libraries are now in Public Preview.
Those packages share a number of new features such as Azure Identity support,
HTTP pipeline, error-handling.,etc, and they also follow the new Azure SDK guidelines which
create easy-to-use APIs that are idiomatic, compatible, and dependable.

You can find the details of those new libraries `here <https://azure.github.io/azure-sdk/releases/latest/#python>`__

In this basic quickstart guide, we will walk you through how to
authenticate to Azure using the preview libraries and start interacting with
Azure resources. There are several possible approaches to
authentication. This document illustrates the most common scenario

Prerequisites
-------------

| You will need the following values to authenticate to Azure

- **Subscription ID**
- **Client ID**
- **Client Secret**
- **Tenant ID**

I was also thinking that we could add alternative of using Azure CLI as well. Maybe simpler for some users. Just "az login" and the same examples should work considering we use default credentials?

These values can be obtained from the portal, here's the instructions:

Get Subscription ID
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

1. Login into your Azure account
2. Select Subscriptions in the left sidebar
3. Select whichever subscription is needed
4. Click on Overview
5. Copy the Subscription ID

Get Client ID / Client Secret / Tenant ID
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

For information on how to get Client ID, Client Secret, and Tenant ID, please refer to `this document <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/howto-create-service-principal-portal>`__

Setting Environment Variables
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

After you obtained the values, you need to set the following values as
your environment variables

- ``AZURE_CLIENT_ID``
- ``AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET``
- ``AZURE_TENANT_ID``
- ``AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID``

To set the following environment variables on your development system:

Windows (Note: Administrator access is required)

1. Open the Control Panel

this can be also done in command line:
set AZURE_CLIENT_ID=

however maybe via control panel is better as it will be persistent.

2. Click System Security, then System
3. Click Advanced system settings on the left
4. Inside the System Properties window, click the Environment Variables… button.
5. Click on the property you would like to change, then click the Edit… button. If the property name is not listed, then click the New… button.

the instructions are different depending on OS, right?

Yes, good point, instructions added for Windows


export AZURE_CLIENT_ID="__CLIENT_ID__"
export AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET="__CLIENT_SECRET__"
export AZURE_TENANT_ID="__TENANT_ID__"
export AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID="__SUBSCRIPTION_ID__"

Authentication and Creating Resource Management Client
------------------------------------------------------

Now that the environment is setup, all you need to do is to create an
authenticated client. Our default option is to use
**DefaultAzureCredential** and in this guide we have picked
**Resources** as our target service, but you can set it up similarly for any other service that you are using.

To authenticate to Azure and create
a management client, simply do the following:

::

import azure.mgmt.resource
import azure.mgmt.network

for simplicity of example, we probably don't need network and compute here

shoudl use the singular form for clarity

resource_client = azure.mgmt.resource.ResourceManagementClient(credential=credentials, subscription_id=subscription_id)

More information and different authentication approaches using Azure Identity can be found in
`this document <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/python/api/overview/azure/identity-readme?view=azure-python>`__

Recommendation is to always remove the "en-us" part of the URL, so the url can be localized depending of customer country automatically

good point


Managing Resources
------------------

Now that we are authenticated, we can use our management client to make API
calls. Let's create a resource group and demonstrate management client's usage

**Create a resource group**

::

location = "mylocation"

i would change "mylocation" to some real location for instance "westus2"
if somebody is novice, they might try to put for instance "Warsaw" ;-)

yep, good point

group_name = "my_resource_group_name"
group = resource_client.resource_groups.create_or_update(
group_name,
{'location': location}
)

**Update a resource group**

::

group_name = "my_resource_group_name"
group.tags = {
"environment":"test",
"department":"tech"
}
updated_group = resource_client.resource_groups.create_or_update(group_name, group)
