agents-v2-py
Build container-based Foundry Agents with Azure AI Projects SDK (ImageBasedHostedAgentDefinition). Use when creating hosted agents with custom container images in Azure AI Foundry.
Compatibility and maintenance
Compatibility alias of hosted-agents-v2-py; use that ID for new references when no existing contract requires this one. The full instructions and support files remain local so existing installations continue to work offline. This is one shared procedure, not an additional capability. Preserve the callable ID when an existing manifest or client configuration uses it. Modified in AAS on 2026-09-05; original metadata and license notices are retained.
Azure AI Hosted Agents (Python)
Build container-based hosted agents using ImageBasedHostedAgentDefinition from the Azure AI Projects SDK.
Installation
pip install 'azure-ai-projects>=2.0.0b3,<3' azure-identity
These are preview-era SDK v2 sketches. Check the exact installed version and current Azure hosted-agent documentation before provisioning; a broad version range is not an integration test.
