# Azure Carbon Optimization Skill This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Carbon Optimization. Covers troubleshooting, security, and integrations & coding patterns. 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](https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/mcp/blob/main/README.md) 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. ## Category Index | Category | Lines | Description | |----------|-------|-------------| | Troubleshooting | L31-L35 | Diagnosing and resolving common Azure Carbon Optimization issues, including data collection gaps, configuration problems, inaccurate emissions estimates, and troubleshooting dashboards or reports. | | Security | L36-L40 | Setting up Azure RBAC roles and permissions so users and apps can securely access and manage Azure Carbon Optimization resources. | | Integrations & Coding Patterns | L41-L45 | Using the Carbon Service REST API and Python scripts to programmatically export Azure emissions data, authenticate, query, and integrate carbon metrics into external systems. | ### Troubleshooting | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Troubleshoot common Azure Carbon optimization issues | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/carbon-optimization/troubleshooting | ### Security | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Configure RBAC access for Azure Carbon optimization | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/carbon-optimization/permissions | ### Integrations & Coding Patterns | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Use Carbon Service REST API to export emissions data | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/carbon-optimization/api-export-data | | Export Azure carbon data via Python REST integration | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/carbon-optimization/tutorial-export-python |
