Using Locally with cURL

Using Locally with cURL

cURL supports Automatic Configuration, meaning that you can run it against Locally by prefixing any commands with locally run. When you do, if an Authorization header is not specified as a part of the cURL request then Locally will automatically add one for you.

For example, to list the Subscriptions available within the Control Plane, you can run:

The same works against the Microsoft Graph endpoints - for example, to list the users in the Directory (Entra ID) emulator:

You can toggle this behaviour in the Settings section of the Locally Dashboard to match the Azure API - see the Control Plane API documentation for more details.

The Directory Emulator page covers what you can do with the Graph endpoint above, and the Azure CLI guide uses the same locally run prefix for az commands.
