Azure AI Generative Package client library for Python
The Azure AI Generative package is part of the Azure AI SDK for Python and contains functionality for building, evaluating and deploying Generative AI applications that leverage Azure AI services. The default installation of the package contains capabilities for cloud-connected scenarios, and by installing extras you can also run operations locally (such as building indexes and calculating metrics).

This package has been tested with Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12.
For a more complete set of Azure libraries, see https://aka.ms/azsdk/python/all.
Getting started
Prerequisites
Python 3.7 or later is required to use this package.
You must have an Azure subscription.
An Azure Machine Learning Workspace.
An Azure AI Studio project.
Install the package
Install the Azure AI generative package for Python with pip:
pip install azure-ai-generative[index,evaluate,promptflow]
pip install azure-identity
Key concepts
The [index,evaluate,promptflow] syntax specifies extra packages that you can optionally remove if you don't need the functionality:
[index] adds the ability to build indexes on your local development environment
[evaluate] adds the ability to run evaluation and calculate metrics in your local development environment
[promptflow] adds the ability to develop with prompt flow connected to your Azure AI project
Usage
Connecting to Projects
The generative package includes the azure-ai-resources package and uses the AIClient for connecting to your project.
First, create an AI Client:
from azure.ai.resources.client import AIClient
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
ai_client = AIClient(
credential=DefaultAzureCredential(),
subscription_id='subscription_id',
resource_group_name='resource_group',
project_name='project_name'
)
Using the generative package
Azure AI Generative Python SDK offers the following key capabilities.
To build an index locally, import the build_index function:
from azure.ai.generative.index import build_index
To run a local evaluation, import the evaluate function:
from azure.ai.generative.evaluate import evaluate
To deploy chat functions and prompt flows, import the deploy function:
from azure.ai.resources.entities.deployment import Deployment
For sample usage of these, refer to this sample
Examples
See our samples repository for examples of how to use the Azure AI Generative Python SDK.
Troubleshooting
General
Azure AI clients raise exceptions defined in Azure Core.
from azure.core.exceptions import HttpResponseError
try:
ai_client.compute.get("cpu-cluster")
except HttpResponseError as error:
print("Request failed: {}".format(error.message))
Logging
This library uses the standard logging library for logging. Basic information about HTTP sessions (URLs, headers, etc.) is logged at INFO level.
Detailed DEBUG level logging, including request/response bodies and unredacted headers, can be enabled on a client with the logging_enable argument.
See full SDK logging documentation with examples here.
Telemetry
The Azure AI Generative Python SDK includes a telemetry feature that collects usage and failure data about the SDK and sends it to Microsoft when you use the SDK in a Jupyter Notebook only. Telemetry will not be collected for any use of the Python SDK outside of a Jupyter Notebook.
Telemetry data helps the SDK team understand how the SDK is used so it can be improved and the information about failures helps the team resolve problems and fix bugs. The SDK telemetry feature is enabled by default for Jupyter Notebook usage and cannot be enabled for non-Jupyter scenarios. To opt out of the telemetry feature in a Jupyter scenario, set the environment variable "AZURE_AI_GENERATIVE_ENABLE_LOGGING" to "False".
