Connect Azure MCP Server

Recommended setup

Local

This server runs on your machine. The publisher's guide has the exact command and settings for your client.

Before you connect

Operations run with your Azure RBAC permissions, and the README warns that autonomous or misconfigured clients may perform destructive actions. Use least-privilege roles and add safeguards before connecting an assistant.

Overview

The Azure MCP Server puts many Azure services behind a single server, so an assistant can list, inspect and change resources, query logs and generate Azure CLI commands from plain-language requests. It runs on your machine, distributed as npm, NuGet, PyPI and Docker packages and as MCPB bundles, and it relies on your existing Azure credentials, for example from az login. A remote deployment on Azure Container Apps is described for clients that need HTTP. The registry lists 3.0.0-beta.48 pre-release packages, while the README says Azure MCP Server 2.0 is generally available. Telemetry to Microsoft is on by default and can be switched off with an environment variable. Calls carry your Azure role permissions, so scope them before connecting an assistant.

What it can do

  • Covers many Azure services in one server, with example prompts for virtual machines, Event Hubs, Azure Monitor and Log Analytics.
  • Generates Azure CLI commands from a description and returns install instructions for the Azure CLI, Azure Developer CLI and Azure Functions Core Tools.
  • Authenticates against the Azure public cloud by default and can be pointed at sovereign clouds.
  • Can be hosted as a remote endpoint, for example on Azure Container Apps, for clients that require HTTP.

What you need

Sign-in and credentials

Authenticate to Azure before starting the server, for example with az login. Credentials are handled through the Azure Identity SDK, and the README links an authentication guide.

Runs as

NuGet package, npm package, Python package (PyPI), MCP bundle
