Prepare for the AI-901 exam (Microsoft Azure AI Fundamentals). In this lesson: what makes an agent in Microsoft Foundry Agent Service (model, instructions, tools, knowledge), built-in tools (web search, code interpreter, file search) vs function tools, grounding in private documents with file search or Foundry IQ, building an agent in the portal (Save as agent), versions and publishing, and a Python client with conversations, responses.create and an agent reference, plus how to spot the legacy threads-and-runs API. Includes three original practice questions.
Preview the topics
- A hospital help-desk agent must answer from a private visitor policy document, and show its sources. What should you configure?
- A production app pins version 3 of a support agent. A developer edits the instructions and saves, but users still see the old behavior. Why?
- A console app must behave exactly like the agent tested in the playground. What should the client send with each question?
