  1. In a new browser window, sign in to the Azure portal.

  3. On the New page, select Databases > Azure Cosmos DB.

  4. On the Create Azure Cosmos DB Account page, enter the settings for the new Azure Cosmos DB account.

    Setting Value Description
    Subscription Your subscription Select the Azure subscription that you want to use for this Azure Cosmos DB account.
    Resource Group Create new, then Account Name Select Create new. Then enter a new resource group name for your account. For simplicity, use the same name as your Azure Cosmos DB account name.
    Account Name A unique name Enter a unique name to identify your Azure Cosmos DB account.

    The account name can use only lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens (-), and must be between 3 and 31 characters long.
    API Table The API determines the type of account to create. Azure Cosmos DB provides five APIs: Core (SQL) for document databases, Gremlin for graph databases, MongoDB for document databases, Azure Table, and Cassandra. You must create a separate account for each API.

    Select Azure Table, because in this quickstart you are creating a table that works with the Table API.

    Learn more about the Table API.
    Location The region closest to your users Select a geographic location to host your Azure Cosmos DB account. Use the location that's closest to your users to give them the fastest access to the data.
    Capacity mode Provisioned throughput or Serverless Select Provisioned throughput to create an account in provisioned throughput mode. Select Serverless to create an account in serverless mode.

    You can leave the Geo-Redundancy and Multi-region Writes options at Disable to avoid additional charges, and skip the Network and Tags sections.

  5. Select Review+Create. After the validation is complete, select Create to create the account.
