1---2name: azure-queue-storage3description: Expert knowledge for Azure Queue Storage development including best practices, limits & quotas, security, configuration, and integrations & coding patterns. Use when using queue client SDKs, Entra ID auth, client-side encryption, monitoring metrics/logs, or scaling queues, and other Azure Queue Storage related development tasks. Not for Azure Blob Storage (use azure-blob-storage), Azure Table Storage (use azure-table-storage), Azure Service Bus (use azure-service-bus), Azure Event Hubs (use azure-event-hubs).4---5# Azure Queue Storage Skill67This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Queue Storage. Covers best practices, limits & quotas, security, configuration, and integrations & coding patterns. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.89## How to Use This Skill1011> **IMPORTANT for Agent**: Use the **Category Index** below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g., `L35-L120`), use `read_file` with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g., `[security.md](security.md)`), use `read_file` on the linked reference file1213This skill requires **network access** to fetch documentation content:14- **Preferred**: Use `mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch`. Returns Markdown.15- **Fallback**: Use `WebFetch`. Returns Markdown.1617## Category Index1819| Category | Lines | Description |20|----------|-------|-------------|21| Best Practices | L29-L35 | Monitoring, securing, and tuning Azure Queue Storage: metrics/logging, alerts, encryption, access control, and performance/scalability patterns and checklists. |22| Limits & Quotas | L36-L41 | Scalability and size limits for Azure Queue Storage, including max queues/messages, throughput, message size, and total storage constraints. |23| Security | L42-L55 | Using Entra ID/RBAC/ABAC for queue data access, configuring auth in CLI/Portal/PowerShell, client-side encryption, and migrating Queue apps to passwordless authentication |24| Configuration | L56-L61 | Configuring and interpreting monitoring for Azure Queue Storage, including metrics, logs, diagnostic settings, and detailed reference for all queue monitoring data fields. |25| Integrations & Coding Patterns | L62-L70 | Client library how-tos for using Azure Queue Storage with .NET, Java, JavaScript, Python, and PowerShell, including setup, auth, CRUD operations, and common coding patterns. |2627### Best Practices28| Topic | URL |29|-------|-----|30| Best practices for monitoring Queue Storage | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/queues-storage-monitoring-scenarios |31| Apply security best practices to Queue Storage | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/security-recommendations |32| Performance and scalability checklist for queues | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/storage-performance-checklist |3334### Limits & Quotas35| Topic | URL |36|-------|-----|37| Understand Azure Queue Storage scalability limits | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/scalability-targets |38| Understand Azure Queue Storage size limits | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/storage-queues-introduction |3940### Security41| Topic | URL |42|-------|-----|43| Assign Azure RBAC roles for queue data access | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/assign-azure-role-data-access |44| Authorize Azure Queue Storage with Entra ID and RBAC | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/authorize-access-azure-active-directory |45| Authorize queue data operations with Azure CLI | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/authorize-data-operations-cli |46| Authorize queue data access in Azure portal | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/authorize-data-operations-portal |47| Use Entra credentials with PowerShell for queues | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/authorize-data-operations-powershell |48| Configure client-side encryption for Queue Storage | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/client-side-encryption |49| Migrate Queue Storage apps to passwordless auth | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/passwordless-migrate-queues |50| Use ABAC role assignment conditions for queues | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/queues-auth-abac |51| Actions and attributes for Queue Storage ABAC | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/queues-auth-abac-attributes |52| Example ABAC role conditions for Queue Storage | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/queues-auth-abac-examples |5354### Configuration55| Topic | URL |56|-------|-----|57| Configure monitoring for Azure Queue Storage | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/monitor-queue-storage |58| Reference for Queue Storage monitoring data | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/monitor-queue-storage-reference |5960### Integrations & Coding Patterns61| Topic | URL |62|-------|-----|63| Manage Azure Queue Storage with PowerShell | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/storage-powershell-how-to-use-queues |64| Use Azure Queue Storage .NET client library | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/storage-quickstart-queues-dotnet |65| Use Azure Queue Storage Java client library | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/storage-quickstart-queues-java |66| Use Azure Queue Storage JavaScript client library | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/storage-quickstart-queues-nodejs |67| Use Azure Queue Storage Python client library | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/storage-quickstart-queues-python |68| Work with Azure Queue Storage in .NET | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/queues/storage-tutorial-queues |
