Compatibility

IMPORTANT: If you have an earlier version of the azure package (version < 1.0), you should uninstall it before installing this package.

You can check the version using pip:

pip freeze

If you see azure==0.11.0 (or any version below 1.0), uninstall it first then install it again:

pip uninstall azure
pip install azure

If you are upgrading from a version older than 0.30.0, see the upgrade doc, the usage samples in the samples directory, and the ChangeLog and BreakingChanges.

If you are encountering problems installing azure storage on Azure Web Apps, upgrading pip might help.

IMPORTANT: If you have an earlier version of the azure-storage package (version <= 0.36.0), you should uninstall it before installing the new split packages.

You can check the version using pip:

pip freeze

If you see azure-storage==0.36.0 (or any version below 0.36.0), uninstall it first:

pip uninstall azure-storage
