This PR adds support for the 2026-05-01-preview Durable Task management API to the durabletask CLI extension. It introduces three new experimental scheduler capabilities — restart, managed identity management, and transparent data encryption (TDE) — and adds task hub capabilities support. The extension version is bumped from 1.0.0b7 to 1.0.0b8.

az durabletask scheduler restart (preview)

Restart a scheduler via the POST /restart operation on the scheduler resource.

az durabletask scheduler restart -g myResourceGroup -n myScheduler

az durabletask scheduler identity (preview)

Manage system-assigned and user-assigned managed identities on a scheduler. Subcommands: assign, remove, show, wait.

# System-assigned
az durabletask scheduler identity assign -g myResourceGroup -n myScheduler

# User-assigned
az durabletask scheduler identity assign -g myResourceGroup -n myScheduler \
    --user-assigned /subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/myRG/providers/Microsoft.ManagedIdentity/userAssignedIdentities/myIdentity

The assign and remove commands are wrapped by custom overloads (AssignIdentity, RemoveIdentity) that strip an inapplicable sku.capacity from the full-resource PUT payload, preventing invalid requests for non-Dedicated (e.g. Consumption) SKUs.

az durabletask scheduler transparent-data-encryption (preview)

Manage transparent data encryption with Microsoft-managed or customer-managed keys. Subcommands: create, update, delete, show, wait.

# Customer-managed key
az durabletask scheduler transparent-data-encryption create -g myResourceGroup \
    --scheduler-name myScheduler --key-source CustomerManaged \
    --key-vault-key-uri https://myvault.vault.azure.net/keys/myKey

# Microsoft-managed key
az durabletask scheduler transparent-data-encryption create -g myResourceGroup \
    --scheduler-name myScheduler --key-source MicrosoftManaged

Task hub capabilities (--capabilities)

az durabletask taskhub create now accepts a --capabilities argument, and the capabilities property is surfaced in taskhub create/list/show/wait output.

API version bump

Task hub commands (create, delete, list, show, wait) are updated from 2026-02-01 to 2026-05-01-preview.
