It is not meant to be installed directly by end users but rather as a transitive dependency when installing the Azure CLI itself. The package provides APIs for gathering telemetry events and handles the upload process, with version 1.1.0 switching to immediate upload rather than caching records.\n\nThe package has no runtime dependencies and is lightweight, designed to integrate seamlessly into the Azure CLI's operation. It supports Python 3.8, 3.9, and 3.10, and is actively maintained by the Azure team. Since its initial release in 2018, it has evolved to optimize telemetry delivery\u2014most recently removing the caching layer in favor of immediate transmission.","worth_installing":"Yes, but only as a transitive dependency of Azure CLI\u2014do not install directly. The package is production-stable, actively maintained, has no external dependencies, and carries no security vulnerabilities. Its MIT license poses no restrictions. Install it only if you are installing Azure CLI itself; attempting to use it standalone will not work as intended."},"id":"azure-cli-telemetry","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/azure-cli-telemetry","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/azure-cli-telemetry.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/azure-cli-telemetry/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-08-01","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"azure-cli-telemetry","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Microsoft Azure CLI Telemetry Package"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":5419853,"position":2104,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.0"}
