Discover Azure AI Foundry, a complete platform to build, test, deploy, and manage generative AI applications using diverse models (OpenAI, Microsoft PHI, open-source), with enterprise workflows.
Create your first Azure AI Foundry project within your hub by configuring identity, resource settings, and a basic testing project, then explore models, deployments, playgrounds, and monitoring in the studio.
Explore the Azure AI Foundry development lifecycle from model catalog to deployment, including selecting models, testing in playgrounds, prompt flow design, evaluation, and agents for complex workflows.
Explore Azure AI Foundry features and architecture, showing how agents combine reasoning with external tools, while governance and my assets manage models, endpoints, data, and risk.
Deploy your first AI model in Azure AI Foundry by selecting a GPT model from the catalog, configuring a managed deployment, and exposing an endpoint for use.
Use the chat playground to test your Azure AI Foundry deployments without code, explore prompts, and manage conversation history for context-aware responses.
Explore a practical mini lab in the Azure AI Foundry portal to summarize information, generate professional emails, explain technical concepts, and rewrite content in different tones, showcasing flexible AI workflows.
Connect applications to a deployed Azure AI Foundry model using an endpoint and API key, and secure authentication with key rotation and RBAC.
Build a Python app that connects to your deployed Azure AI Foundry model, authenticates via an API key and endpoint, sends a prompt, and displays the model's response.
Delete the resource group to clean up Azure AI Foundry resources and avoid ongoing costs after the course. Then review the lifecycle of discovering, deploying, testing, and connecting AI models.
Azure AI Foundry is Microsoft's powerful platform for building, deploying, and managing AI applications with ease. If you're looking to start your journey in Azure AI, this beginner-friendly course will help you build a strong foundation through practical, hands-on learning.
You'll learn how to create and configure Azure AI resources, understand the Azure AI Foundry architecture, explore Hubs, Projects, Models, and Deployments, and confidently navigate the Azure AI Foundry portal. You'll also deploy your first GPT model, experiment with prompts in the AI Playground, and discover how settings like Temperature, Top P, and Max Tokens influence AI responses.
To reinforce your learning, you'll complete real-world exercises such as text summarization, email generation, and content rewriting. Finally, you'll connect to your deployed model using Python and build your first AI application with the Azure SDK.
Designed for beginners, this course requires no prior Azure AI experience. Every concept is explained step by step with live demonstrations, making it easy to follow and implement. By the end of the course, you'll have the skills and confidence to start building AI-powered applications and continue your learning with advanced topics like Azure OpenAI, AI Agents, RAG, Prompt Flow, and Fine-Tuning.
