 ### Runbook
 
- To obtain a runbook, [import Python 2 packages from pypi into Azure Automation account](https://github.com/azureautomation/import-python-2-packages-from-pypi-into-azure-automation-account) from the Azure Automation GitHub organization into your Automation account. Make sure the Run Settings are set to **Azure** and start the runbook with the parameters. The runbook requires a Run As account for the Automation account to work. For each parameter make sure you start it with the switch as seen in the following list and image:

 ## Use a package in a runbook
 
-With a package imported, you can use it in a runbook. The following example uses the [Azure Automation utility package](https://github.com/azureautomation/azure_automation_utility). This package makes it easier to use Python with Azure Automation. To use the package, follow the instructions in the GitHub repository and add it to the runbook. For example, you can use `from azure_automation_utility import get_automation_runas_credential` to import the function for retrieving the Run As account.
+With a package imported, you can use it in a runbook. Add the following code to list all the resource groups in an Azure subscription:
 
 ```python
-import azure.mgmt.resource
-import automationassets
-from azure_automation_utility import get_automation_runas_credential
-
-# Authenticate to Azure using the Azure Automation RunAs service principal
-runas_connection = automationassets.get_automation_connection("AzureRunAsConnection")
-azure_credential = get_automation_runas_credential()
-
-# Intialize the resource management client with the RunAs credential and subscription
-resource_client = azure.mgmt.resource.ResourceManagementClient(
-    azure_credential,
-    str(runas_connection["SubscriptionId"]))
-
-# Get list of resource groups and print them out
-groups = resource_client.resource_groups.list()
-for group in groups:
-    print group.name
+#!/usr/bin/env python 
+import os 
+import requests 
+# printing environment variables 
+endPoint = os.getenv('IDENTITY_ENDPOINT') + "?resource=https://management.azure.com/" 
+identityHeader = os.getenv('IDENTITY_HEADER') 
+payload = {} 
+headers = { 
+    'X-IDENTITY-HEADER': identityHeader, 
+    'Metadata': 'True' 
+} 
+response = requests.request("GET", endPoint, headers=headers, data=payload) 
+print response.text 
 ```
 
-> [!NOTE]
-> The Python `automationassets` package is not available on pypi.org, so it's not available for import onto a Windows machine.

 ## Develop and test runbooks offline
 
 To develop and test your Python 2 runbooks offline, you can use the [Azure Automation Python emulated assets](https://github.com/azureautomation/python_emulated_assets) module on GitHub. This module allows you to reference your shared resources such as credentials, variables, connections, and certificates.
