Usage Examples

azd-app

Run your entire app locally with one command — auto-dependencies, real-time dashboard, and AI-powered debugging:

# Start all services defined in azure.yaml
azd app run

# Check prerequisites are installed
azd app reqs

# Install dependencies for all services
azd app deps

# View logs (with optional follow)
azd app logs --follow

# Monitor service health
azd app health --stream

# Run tests with coverage
azd app test --coverage

# Show project info
azd app info

# Start the MCP server for AI debugging with GitHub Copilot
azd app mcp serve

azd-copilot

AI-powered Azure development assistant with agents, skills, and MCP server:

# Start the MCP server for GitHub Copilot integration
azd copilot mcp serve

# Use Azure agents for architecture, development, deployment, and more
azd copilot agent list

azd-rest

Make authenticated REST API calls to any Azure service — automatic OAuth scope detection, token management, and MCP server for AI integration:

# GET request to Azure Resource Manager
azd rest get "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions?api-version=2022-12-01"

# POST with a JSON body
azd rest post "https://management.azure.com/..." --body '{"key": "value"}'

# Use any HTTP method
azd rest put "https://..." --body @payload.json
azd rest patch "https://..." --body '{"update": true}'
azd rest delete "https://..."
azd rest head "https://..."

# Start the MCP server for AI-powered Azure API exploration
azd rest mcp serve
