+# {{ clientDescriptiveName }} library for JavaScript

+
+## Getting started
+
+### Currently supported environments
+
+- [LTS versions of Node.js](https://nodejs.org/about/releases/)
+- Latest versions of Safari, Chrome, Edge and Firefox.
+
+See our [support policy](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/blob/main/SUPPORT.md) for more details.
+
+{{#if azure}}
+### Prerequisites
+
+- An [Azure subscription][azure_sub].
+{{/if}}
+
+{{#if isReleasablePackage}}
+### Install the `{{ clientPackageName }}` package
+
+Install the {{ clientDescriptiveName }} library for JavaScript with `npm`:
+
+```bash
+npm install {{ clientPackageName }}
+```
+{{/if}}
+
+{{#if azure}}
+{{#if addCredentials}}
+### Create and authenticate a `{{ clientClassName}}`
+
+To create a client object to access the {{ serviceName }} API, you will need the `endpoint` of your {{ serviceName }} resource and a `credential`. The {{ clientDescriptiveName }} can use Azure Active Directory credentials to authenticate.
+You can find the endpoint for your {{ serviceName }} resource in the [Azure Portal][azure_portal].
+
+You can authenticate with Azure Active Directory using a credential from the [@azure/identity][azure_identity] library or [an existing AAD Token](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/blob/master/sdk/identity/identity/samples/AzureIdentityExamples.md#authenticating-with-a-pre-fetched-access-token).
+
+To use the [DefaultAzureCredential][defaultazurecredential] provider shown below, or other credential providers provided with the Azure SDK, please install the `@azure/identity` package:
+
+```bash
+npm install @azure/identity
+```
+
+You will also need to **register a new AAD application and grant access to {{ serviceName}}** by assigning the suitable role to your service principal (note: roles such as `"Owner"` will not grant the necessary permissions).
+Set the values of the client ID, tenant ID, and client secret of the AAD application as environment variables: `AZURE_CLIENT_ID`, `AZURE_TENANT_ID`, `AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET`.
+
+For more information about how to create an Azure AD Application check out [this guide](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/develop/howto-create-service-principal-portal).
+
+{{#if azureArm}}
+```javascript
+const { {{ clientClassName }} } = require("{{ clientPackageName }}");
+const { DefaultAzureCredential } = require("@azure/identity");
+// For client-side applications running in the browser, use InteractiveBrowserCredential instead of DefaultAzureCredential. See https://aka.ms/azsdk/js/identity/examples for more details.
+
+const subscriptionId = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000";
+const client = new {{ clientClassName }}(new DefaultAzureCredential(), subscriptionId);
+
+// For client-side applications running in the browser, use this code instead:
+// const credential = new InteractiveBrowserCredential({
+//   tenantId: "<YOUR_TENANT_ID>",
+//   clientId: "<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>"
+// });
+// const client = new {{ clientClassName }}(credential, subscriptionId);
+```
+{{else}}
+```javascript
+const { {{ clientClassName }} } = require("{{ clientPackageName }}");
+const { DefaultAzureCredential } = require("@azure/identity");
+// For client-side applications running in the browser, use InteractiveBrowserCredential instead of DefaultAzureCredential. See https://aka.ms/azsdk/js/identity/examples for more details.
+
+const client = new {{ clientClassName }}("<endpoint>", new DefaultAzureCredential());
+// For client-side applications running in the browser, use this code instead:
+// const credential = new InteractiveBrowserCredential({
+//   tenantId: "<YOUR_TENANT_ID>",
+//   clientId: "<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>"
+// });
+// const client = new {{ clientClassName }}("<endpoint>", credential);
+```
+{{/if}}
+{{/if}}{{/if}}
+
+### JavaScript Bundle
+To use this client library in the browser, first you need to use a bundler. For details on how to do this, please refer to our [bundling documentation](https://aka.ms/AzureSDKBundling).
+
+## Key concepts
+
+### {{ clientClassName }}
+
+`{{ clientClassName }}` is the primary interface for developers using the {{ clientDescriptiveName }} library. Explore the methods on this client object to understand the different features of the {{ serviceName }} service that you can access.
+
+{{#if azure}}
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Logging
+
+Enabling logging may help uncover useful information about failures. In order to see a log of HTTP requests and responses, set the `AZURE_LOG_LEVEL` environment variable to `info`. Alternatively, logging can be enabled at runtime by calling `setLogLevel` in the `@azure/logger`:
+
+```javascript
+const { setLogLevel } = require("@azure/logger");
+setLogLevel("info");
+```
+
+For more detailed instructions on how to enable logs, you can look at the [@azure/logger package docs]({{ repoURL }}/tree/main/sdk/core/logger).

+## Getting started
+
+### Currently supported environments
+
+- Node.js version 14.x.x or higher
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- You must have an [Azure subscription](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/authentication?tabs=powershell#authenticate-with-an-authentication-token){{#if dependencyLink}} and follow [these]({{ dependencyLink }}) instructions{{/if}} to use this package.
+
+### Install the `{{ clientPackageName }}` package
+
+Install the {{ clientDescriptiveName }} REST client library for JavaScript with `npm`:
+
+```bash
+npm install {{ clientPackageName }}
+```
+
+### Create and authenticate a `{{ clientClassName }}`
+
+To use an [Azure Active Directory (AAD) token credential](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/authentication?tabs=powershell#authenticate-with-an-authentication-token),
+provide an instance of the desired credential type obtained from the
+[@azure/identity](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/tree/main/sdk/identity/identity#credentials) library.
+
+To authenticate with AAD, you must first `npm` install [`@azure/identity`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@azure/identity) {{#if dependencyLink}} and
+[{{dependencyDescription }}]({{ dependencyLink }}){{/if}}
+
+After setup, you can choose which type of [credential](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/tree/main/sdk/identity/identity#credentials) from `@azure/identity` to use.
+As an example, [DefaultAzureCredential](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/tree/main/sdk/identity/identity#defaultazurecredential)
+can be used to authenticate the client:
+
+Set the values of the client ID, tenant ID, and client secret of the AAD application as environment variables:
+AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET
