Use .result() to wait:

Synchronous wait

capacity

client . fabric_capacities . begin_create_or_update ( . . . ) . result ( )

Or poll manually

poller

client . fabric_capacities . begin_create_or_update ( . . . ) while not poller . done ( ) : print ( f"Status: { poller . status ( ) } " ) time . sleep ( 5 ) capacity = poller . result ( ) Best Practices Use DefaultAzureCredential for authentication Suspend unused capacities to reduce costs Start with smaller SKUs and scale up as needed Use tags for cost tracking and organization Check name availability before creating capacities Handle LRO properly — don't assume immediate completion Set up capacity admins — specify users who can manage workspaces Monitor capacity usage via Azure Monitor metrics When to Use This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.
