title: Azure CosmosDB anonymous read access
body: <p>What is the simplest way to provide anonymous read access to a CosmosDB instance? </p>
  
  <p>For example, in Firebase API I would only need to provide read access via the <code>rules</code> tab: </p>
  
  <pre><code>{
    "rules": {
      ".read": true, 
      ".write": "auth != null"
    }
  }
  </code></pre>
