# Notification Hubs Management

For general information on resource management, see Resource Management.

## Create the management client

The following code creates an instance of the management client.

You will need to provide your `subscription_id` which can be retrieved from your subscription list.

See Resource Management Authentication for details on handling Azure Active Directory authentication with the Python SDK, and creating a `Credentials` instance.

    from azure.mgmt.notificationhubs import NotificationHubsManagementClient
        from azure.common.credentials import UserPassCredentials

    # Replace this with your subscription id
    subscription_id = '33333333-3333-3333-3333-333333333333'

    # See above for details on creating different types of AAD credentials
    credentials = UserPassCredentials(
                'user@domain.com',      # Your user
                'my_password',          # Your password
        )

    redis_client = NotificationHubsManagementClient(
        credentials,
        subscription_id
    )

## Check namespace availability

The following code check namespace availability of a notification hub.

    from azure.mgmt.notificationhubs.models import CheckAvailabilityParameters

    account_name = 'mynotificationhub'
    output = notificationhubs_client.namespaces.check_availability(
        azure.mgmt.notificationhubs.models.CheckAvailabilityParameters(
            name = account_name
        )
    )
    # output is a CheckAvailibilityResource instance
    print(output.is_availiable) # Yes, it's 'availiable', it's a typo in the REST API
