About azure-notification-hubs

azure-notification-hubs is an Agent skill for developers and operators working with Azure Notification Hubs. It combines local reference content with fetched documentation covering push design, troubleshooting, configuration, security, integrations, and deployment.

Key features

01Push notification troubleshooting
02Registration, tags, and templates
03Architecture, limits, and quotas
04Security and service configuration
05SDK, REST, and deployment guidance

Use cases

01Tracing dropped push notifications
02Designing targeted, multi-tenant push
03Configuring platform push credentials
04Planning regional migration

MCP support

The skill can fetch documentation through mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch; it also documents a webpage-fetch fallback.

Install

Copy the command and run it in a terminal.

$npx skills add https://github.com/microsoftdocs/agent-skills --skill azure-notification-hubs

Azure Notification Hubs Skill

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Notification Hubs. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.

How to Use This Skill

IMPORTANT for Agent: Use the Category Index below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g., L35-L120), use read_file with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g., [security.md](security.md)), use read_file on the linked reference file

IMPORTANT for Agent: If metadata.generated_at is more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. If mcp_microsoftdocs tools are not available, suggest the user install it: Installation Guide

This skill requires network access to fetch documentation content:

Preferred: Use mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch with query string from=learn-agent-skill. Returns Markdown.
Fallback: Use fetch_webpage with query string from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown. Returns Markdown.
