Microsoft Azure Managementgroups Management Client Library for Python
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes. This is the official, actively maintained Microsoft SDK for Azure Management Groups in Python. It has low install friction, no known vulnerabilities, permissive licensing, and is suitable for any Python project that needs to programmatically manage Azure subscriptions and organizational hierarchy. Version 2.0.0 introduces breaking changes, so verify migration requirements if upgrading from earlier versions.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.10+.
- Azure authentication credentials must be configured via environment variables (AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET).
- Low install friction with three lightweight runtime dependencies.

What it is and what it does
This is the official Microsoft Azure SDK client library for managing Azure Management Groups in Python. It provides programmatic access to organize subscriptions and resources within a tenant through a Python interface. The library handles authentication through Microsoft Entra and abstracts REST API calls into Python objects and methods.
Version 2.0.0 is a major release with breaking changes, including renamed client classes and restructured data models to use hybrid dictionary/object patterns. It requires Python 3.10 or later and depends on azure-mgmt-core for common Azure SDK functionality, isodate for date handling, and typing-extensions for type hints. The package is part of the broader Azure SDK for Python ecosystem and is actively maintained.
Use it for
- Organize and manage Azure subscriptions programmatically by creating and updating management group hierarchies.
- Automate Azure governance tasks across multiple subscriptions at once.
- Query the structure of management groups and subscriptions to audit tenant organization.
- Integrate Azure resource management into Python automation or infrastructure-as-code workflows.
