Azure Fabric Management SDK for Python
Manage Microsoft Fabric capacities and resources programmatically.
Installation
pip install azure-mgmt-fabric
pip install azure-identity
Environment Variables
AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=<your-subscription-id>
AZURE_RESOURCE_GROUP=<your-resource-group>
Authentication
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.mgmt.fabric import FabricMgmtClient
import os
credential = DefaultAzureCredential()
client = FabricMgmtClient(
credential=credential,
subscription_id=os.environ["AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID"]
)
Create Fabric Capacity
from azure.mgmt.fabric import FabricMgmtClient
from azure.mgmt.fabric.models import FabricCapacity, FabricCapacityProperties, CapacitySku
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
import os
credential = DefaultAzureCredential()
client = FabricMgmtClient(
credential=credential,
subscription_id=os.environ["AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID"]
)
resource_group = os.environ["AZURE_RESOURCE_GROUP"]
capacity_name = "myfabriccapacity"
capacity = client.fabric_capacities.begin_create_or_update(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
capacity_name=capacity_name,
resource=FabricCapacity(
location="eastus",
sku=CapacitySku(
name="F2", # Fabric SKU
tier="Fabric"
),
properties=FabricCapacityProperties(
administration=FabricCapacityAdministration(
members=["user@contoso.com"]
)
)
)
).result()
print(f"Capacity created: {capacity.name}")
Get Capacity Details
capacity = client.fabric_capacities.get(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
capacity_name=capacity_name
)
print(f"Capacity: {capacity.name}")
print(f"SKU: {capacity.sku.name}")
print(f"State: {capacity.properties.state}")
print(f"Location: {capacity.location}")
List Capacities in Resource Group
capacities = client.fabric_capacities.list_by_resource_group(
resource_group_name=resource_group
)
for capacity in capacities:
print(f"Capacity: {capacity.name} - SKU: {capacity.sku.name}")
List All Capacities in Subscription
all_capacities = client.fabric_capacities.list_by_subscription()
for capacity in all_capacities:
print(f"Capacity: {capacity.name} in {capacity.location}")
Update Capacity
from azure.mgmt.fabric.models import FabricCapacityUpdate, CapacitySku
updated = client.fabric_capacities.begin_update(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
capacity_name=capacity_name,
properties=FabricCapacityUpdate(
sku=CapacitySku(
name="F4", # Scale up
tier="Fabric"
),
tags={"environment": "production"}
)
).result()
print(f"Updated SKU: {updated.sku.name}")
Suspend Capacity
Pause capacity to stop billing:
client.fabric_capacities.begin_suspend(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
capacity_name=capacity_name
).result()
print("Capacity suspended")
Resume Capacity
Resume a paused capacity:
client.fabric_capacities.begin_resume(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
capacity_name=capacity_name
).result()
print("Capacity resumed")
Delete Capacity
client.fabric_capacities.begin_delete(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
capacity_name=capacity_name
).result()
print("Capacity deleted")
Check Name Availability
from azure.mgmt.fabric.models import CheckNameAvailabilityRequest
result = client.fabric_capacities.check_name_availability(
location="eastus",
body=CheckNameAvailabilityRequest(
name="my-new-capacity",
type="Microsoft.Fabric/capacities"
)
)
if result.name_available:
print("Name is available")
else:
print(f"Name not available: {result.reason}")
List Available SKUs
skus = client.fabric_capacities.list_skus(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
capacity_name=capacity_name
)
for sku in skus:
print(f"SKU: {sku.name} - Tier: {sku.tier}")

Long-Running Operations
All mutating operations are long-running (LRO). Use .result() to wait:
# Synchronous wait
capacity = client.fabric_capacities.begin_create_or_update(...).result()
# Or poll manually
poller = client.fabric_capacities.begin_create_or_update(...)
while not poller.done():
print(f"Status: {poller.status()}")
time.sleep(5)
capacity = poller.result()
Best Practices
- Use DefaultAzureCredential for authentication
- Suspend unused capacities to reduce costs
- Start with smaller SKUs and scale up as needed
- Use tags for cost tracking and organization
- Check name availability before creating capacities
- Handle LRO properly — don't assume immediate completion
- Set up capacity admins — specify users who can manage workspaces
- Monitor capacity usage via Azure Monitor metrics
