+
+To execute the sample scripts, you need a functional setup of [Azure PowerShell](/powershell/azure/).
+
+1. Open a PowerShell window with admin rights and run `Install-Module -Name Az` to install Azure PowerShell
+1. Run: `Install-Module -Name Az.AppConfiguration` to install the App Configuration module.
+
+## Sample script
+
+```powershell
+
+# Create resource group 
+New-AzResourceGroup -Name <rg-name> -Location <location>
+
+# Create App Configuration store
+New-AzAppConfigurationStore -Name <store-name> -ResourceGroupName <rg-name> -Location <location> -Sku <sku>
+
+# Get the AppConfig connection string 
+Get-AzAppConfigurationStoreKey -Name <store-name> -ResourceGroupName <rg-name>
+```
+
