How to Use
Authentication
This library support management certificate authentication. To authenticate the library for the REST API calls, you need to
- Have a management certificate set up in your Microsoft Azure subscription. You can do this by

azure account cert export
to get the .pem file.
Create the ComputeManagementClient
var fs = computeManagement = ; var computeManagementClient = computeManagement;
