azure-kusto-data Package provides the capability to query Kusto clusters with Python.

azure-kusto-ingest Package allows sending data to Kusto service - i.e. ingest data.

To install via the Python Package Index (PyPI), type:

• pip install azure-kusto-data
• pip install azure-kusto-ingest

To get the source code of the SDK via git just type:

git clone git://github.com/Azure/azure-kusto-python.git
cd ./azure-kusto-python/azure-kusto-data
python setup.py install
cd ../azure-kusto-ingest
python setup.py install

Download a zip of the code via GitHub or PyPi. Then follow the same instructions in option 2.

• Pandas - Package provides extra functionality for use with pandas. Since these are optional dependencies, install with pandas:
  • pip install azure-kusto-data[pandas]
  • pip install azure-kusto-ingest[pandas]

• Python 3.5 and above
• See setup.py for dependencies

• AAD Username/password - Provide your AAD username and password to Kusto client (check the notice below).
• AAD application - Provide app ID and app secret to Kusto client.
• AAD code - Provide only your AAD username, and authenticate yourself using a code, generated by ADAL.
• AZ CLI - For those already using azure-cli, provide access token for the logged in user`.

<!> IMPORTANT NOTICE <!>: User authentication (using username and password) has a major caveat: Sometimes users are required to use Multi-Factor Authentication. In such a case, this flow won't work for them. It is a limitation of the AAD library we are using under the hood. There are several bugs reported.

There is also a feature request for the adal team to work on implementing IWA (Intergrated Windows Auth) so that signed in users won't have to authenticate. Feel free to upvote if it is relevant in your case.
