Before you install
- Requires Python 3.9+, Azure subscription, and environment variables AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET, AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID for authentication.
- Low install friction; pure Python wheel with minimal runtime dependencies (isodate, azure-mgmt-core, typing-extensions).
- Actively maintained as of 2026-08-14 with recent release 2026-03-19.

What it is and what it does
This is the official Microsoft Azure SDK client library for managing Azure Container Registry resources via Python. It provides a ContainerRegistryManagementClient that wraps the Azure management API, allowing you to programmatically create, configure, and delete container registries, manage webhooks, tokens, scope maps, and other registry objects. The package depends on isodate, azure-mgmt-core (the common Azure SDK infrastructure), and typing-extensions for runtime support.
Version 15.0.0 is a major release with significant breaking changes: it restructures model properties into nested `properties` objects, moves some APIs to a separate package, and introduces hybrid models that behave as both dictionaries and objects. Authentication typically relies on Azure Active Directory via environment variables (AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET, AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID).
Use it for
- Automate container registry provisioning and configuration in CI/CD pipelines or infrastructure-as-code workflows
- Programmatically manage registry access via tokens, scope maps, and role assignments
- Set up webhooks to trigger external systems when images are pushed or deleted from a registry
- Bulk update registry policies, network rules, or encryption settings across multiple registries
- Query and monitor registry metadata, connected registries, and credential sets in a Python application
