Published Feb 16, 2026

Azure Synapse is a limitless analytics service that brings together enterprise data warehousing and Big Data analytics. It gives you the freedom to query data on your terms, using either serverless on-demand or provisioned resourcesat scale. Azure Synapse brings these two worlds together with a unified experience to ingest, prepare, manage, and serve data for immediate BI and machine learning needs.

This directory contains the open source subset of the .NET SDK. For documentation of the complete Azure SDK, please see the Microsoft Azure .NET Developer Center.

Use the client library for Synapse to:

  • Submit Spark Batch job and Spark Session Job
  • Support management the ACL of Workspace

Getting started

The complete Microsoft Azure SDK can be downloaded from the Microsoft Azure Downloads Page and ships with support for building deployment packages, integrating with tooling, rich command line tooling, and more.

For the best development experience, developers should use the official Microsoft NuGet packages for libraries. NuGet packages are regularly updated with new functionality and hotfixes.

Prerequisites

  • Microsoft Azure Subscription: To call Microsoft Azure services, including Azure Synapse, you need to first create an account. If you do not have an existing Azure account, you may sign up for a free trial or use your MSDN subscriber benefits.

  • The Azure Synapse client library shares the same Prerequisites as the Microsoft Azure SDK for .NET.

Examples

The Microsoft.Azure.Synapse supports the CRUD of spark batch job.

Spark Batch Job examples

List spark batch job

List the spark batch job under the specific spark pool of a specific synapse workspace

ExtendedLivyListBatchResponse listBatchResponse = synapseClient.SparkBatch.List(workspaceName, sparkPoolName);
Console.WriteLine(listBatchResponse.Total);

Create spark batch job

Create spark batch job under specific workspace and spark pool.

 ExtendedLivyBatchRequest batchRequest = new ExtendedLivyBatchRequest() { Name = "WordCount_Java", ClassName = "WordCount", // The abfss path of the file File = "abfss://yourfilesystem@{your adlsgen2 account name}. path}/wordcount.jar", Args= new List<string> { "abfss://yourfilesystem@{your adlsgen2 account name}. path}/input.txt", "abfss://yourfilesystem@{your adlsgen2 account name}. path}/result" }, DriverCores = 2, DriverMemory = "4G", ExecutorCores = 2, NumExecutors = 2, ExecutorMemory = "4G", }; var batchJob = synapseClient.SparkBatch.Create(workspaceName, sparkPoolName, batchRequest); Console.WriteLine(ExtractSparkBatchJobInfomation(batchJob));
}

Delete spark batch job

Delete a spark batch job with spark batch id under specific workspace and spark pool.

synapseClient.SparkBatch.Delete(workspaceName, sparkPoolName, sparkBatchId);
