version: "1.0.1" name: azure-documentdb description: Expert knowledge for Azure DocumentDB development including troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. Use when using DocumentDB search (BM25/vector), Data API, MongoDB compatibility, change streams, or cross-region replication, and other Azure DocumentDB related development tasks. Not for Azure Cosmos DB (use azure-cosmos-db), Azure Table Storage (use azure-table-storage), Azure SQL Database (use azure-sql-database), Azure SQL Managed Instance (use azure-sql-managed-instance). compatibility: Requires network access. Uses mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch or fetch_webpage to retrieve documentation. metadata: generated_at: "2026-08-31" generator: "docs2skills/1.0.0"

Azure DocumentDB Skill

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure DocumentDB. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.

How to Use This Skill

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 file

IMPORTANT for Agent: If metadata.generated_at is more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. If mcp_microsoftdocs tools are not available, suggest the user install it: Installation Guide

This skill requires network access to fetch documentation content:

Preferred: Use mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch with query string from=learn-agent-skill. Returns Markdown.
Fallback: Use fetch_webpage with query string from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown. Returns Markdown.
