Developing a .NET console app using Azure Cosmos DB

This sample shows you how to use the Azure Cosmos DB service to store and access data from a .NET console application.

For a complete end-to-end walkthrough of creating this application, please refer to the full tutorial on the Azure Cosmos DB documentation page.

Running this sample

  1. Before you can run this sample, you must have the following prerequisites:

    • An active Azure Cosmos DB account - If you don't have an account, refer to the Create a database account article.
    • Visual Studio 2015 (or higher).

  2. Clone this repository using Git for Windows (http://www.git-scm.com/), or download the zip file.

  3. From Visual Studio, open the GetStarted.sln file from the root directory.

  4. In Visual Studio Build menu, select Build Solution (or Press F6).

  5. Retrieve the URI and PRIMARY KEY (or SECONDARY KEY) values from the Keys blade of your Azure Cosmos DB account in the Azure portal. For more information on obtaining endpoint & keys for your Azure Cosmos DB account refer to View, copy, and regenerate access keys and passwords

If you don't have an account, see Create a database account to set one up.

  1. In the App.config file, located in the src directory, find EndPointUri and PrimaryKey and replace the placeholder values with the values obtained for your account.

  2. You can now run and debug the application locally by pressing F5 in Visual Studio.
