What it is and what it does
azure-synapse-accesscontrol is the official Python client library for managing access control in Azure Synapse Analytics workspaces. It wraps the Azure Synapse AccessControl REST API, allowing you to programmatically assign roles, manage permissions, and query access policies for workspace resources.
The library depends on msrest, azure-common, azure-core, and azure-synapse-nspkg to provide a consistent Azure SDK experience. It targets Python 2.7, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, and 3.9 and is distributed as a pure-Python wheel. The package is part of the broader Azure SDK for Python ecosystem and is intended for developers building automation, governance, or access management tools around Synapse workspaces.
Use it for
- Automate role assignment and permission management across multiple Synapse workspaces in a CI/CD pipeline.
- Build an access governance dashboard that queries and reports on who has what permissions in Synapse.
- Programmatically grant or revoke workspace access based on organizational policy or user lifecycle events.
- Integrate Synapse access control into a centralized identity and access management system.
- Audit and enforce least-privilege access policies across Synapse resources.
