Microsoft Code Reference

Tools

| Need | Tool | Example | |------|------|---------| | API method/class lookup | microsoft_docs_search | "BlobClient UploadAsync Azure.Storage.Blobs" | | Working code sample | microsoft_code_sample_search | query: "upload blob managed identity", language: "python" | | Full API reference | microsoft_docs_fetch | Fetch URL from microsoft_docs_search (for overloads, full signatures) |

Finding Code Samples

Use microsoft_code_sample_search to get official, working examples:

microsoft_code_sample_search(query: "upload file to blob storage", language: "csharp")
microsoft_code_sample_search(query: "authenticate with managed identity", language: "python")
microsoft_code_sample_search(query: "send message service bus", language: "javascript")

When to use:

  • Before writing code—find a working pattern to follow
  • After errors—compare your code against a known-good sample
  • Unsure of initialization/setup—samples show complete context

API Lookups

# Verify method exists (include namespace for precision)
"BlobClient UploadAsync Azure.Storage.Blobs"
"GraphServiceClient Users Microsoft.Graph"

# Find class/interface
"DefaultAzureCredential class Azure.Identity"

# Find correct package
"Azure Blob Storage NuGet package"
"azure-storage-blob pip package"

Fetch full page when method has multiple overloads or you need complete parameter details.

Error Troubleshooting

Use microsoft_code_sample_search to find working code samples and compare with your implementation. For specific errors, use microsoft_docs_search and microsoft_docs_fetch:

| Error Type | Query | |------------|-------| | Method not found | "[ClassName] methods [Namespace]" | | Type not found | "[TypeName] NuGet package namespace" | | Wrong signature | "[ClassName] [MethodName] overloads" → fetch full page | | Deprecated warning | "[OldType] migration v12" | | Auth failure | "DefaultAzureCredential troubleshooting" | | 403 Forbidden | "[ServiceName] RBAC permissions" |

When to Verify

Always verify when:

  • Method name seems "too convenient" (UploadFile vs actual Upload)
  • Mixing SDK versions (v11 CloudBlobClient vs v12 BlobServiceClient)
  • Package name doesn't follow conventions (Azure.* for .NET, azure-* for Python)
  • Using an API for the first time

Validation Workflow

Before generating code using Microsoft SDKs, verify it's correct:

  1. Confirm method or package existsmicrosoft_docs_search(query: "[ClassName] [MethodName] [Namespace]")
  2. Fetch full details (for overloads/complex params) — microsoft_docs_fetch(url: "...")
  3. Find working samplemicrosoft_code_sample_search(query: "[task]", language: "[lang]")

For simple lookups, step 1 alone may suffice. For complex API usage, complete all three steps.
