Getting Started with SDKs
To start using an SDK, you typically need to:
- Install the SDK package using your language's package manager (e.g., NuGet for .NET, Maven for Java, npm for Node.js).
- Obtain your Cosmos DB endpoint and primary key from the Azure portal.
- Instantiate a Cosmos DB client using your credentials.
- Perform CRUD operations on your containers and documents.
