1---2name: azure-resource-graph3description: Expert knowledge for Azure Resource Graph development including troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, limits & quotas, configuration, and integrations & coding patterns. Use when querying via CLI/PowerShell/REST, using GET/LIST vs Query APIs, shared queries, alerts, or Power BI, and other Azure Resource Graph related development tasks. Not for Azure Monitor (use azure-monitor), Azure Policy (use azure-policy), Azure Resource Manager (use azure-resource-manager), Azure Portal (use azure-portal).4---5# Azure Resource Graph Skill67This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Resource Graph. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, limits & quotas, 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| Troubleshooting | L30-L36 | Diagnosing and fixing Azure Resource Graph issues with alerts, query syntax/runtime errors, and Power BI connector connectivity, auth, and data refresh problems. |22| Best Practices | L37-L41 | Guidance on designing Azure Resource Graph queries to avoid throttling, including efficient patterns, batching, pagination, and performance-friendly query structures. |23| Decision Making | L42-L46 | Guidance on when to use Azure Resource Graph GET/LIST REST APIs vs the Query service, comparing capabilities, scenarios, and integration patterns. |24| Limits & Quotas | L47-L54 | Understanding ARG request limits, pagination behavior, handling large result sets, and implementing efficient paging (including with PowerShell) to avoid quota issues. |25| Configuration | L55-L62 | Configuring Resource Graph usage: keyboard shortcuts, supported resource types, and defining/deploying shared queries via Bicep and ARM templates. |26| Integrations & Coding Patterns | L63-L74 | Running Resource Graph queries via CLI, PowerShell, REST, Logic Apps, Power BI;
