HttpRequest

✓ from azure.core.pipeline.transport import HttpRequest

✗ from azure.core.pipeline import HttpRequest

Basic usage of HttpRequest from azure-core

from azure.core.pipeline import HttpRequest # Create an HttpRequest object request = HttpRequest('GET', 'https://example.com') # Send the request (assuming a transport is set up) response = await transport.send(request) print(response.status_code)

Debug

Known issues

breakingThe 'azure' meta-package is deprecated as of version 5.0.0 and can no longer be installed. Install individual packages as needed.

fix

Install specific Azure SDK packages like 'azure-core' directly.

affects: >=5.0.0

gotchaAttempting to 'await' an asynchronous operation (e.g., from an Azure SDK transport client) outside of an 'async def' function will result in a 'SyntaxError: 'await' outside function'. This typically happens when using async client methods without defining the caller function as asynchronous.

fix

Ensure that any function containing 'await' expressions is declared with 'async def'. For top-level script execution, wrap the async call in an async function and use `asyncio.run()`.

affects: *

breakingUsing 'await' outside of an 'async def' function context will raise a SyntaxError. Top-level 'await' is not directly supported in standard Python scripts prior to Python 3.11 for modules, or Python 3.7 for REPL.

fix

Ensure all 'await' expressions are placed inside a function defined with 'async def'. If using 'await' at the top level, ensure your Python version and execution environment supports it (e.g., Python 3.11+ module, IPython/Jupyter, or a custom event loop runner).

affects: >=3.5
