Description

Foundry Agent Service now supports bring‑your‑own‑model scenarios, allowing agents to use AI models deployed and managed outside of Foundry, including models hosted behind enterprise AI gateways such as Azure API Management. This enables organizations to integrate custom, fine‑tuned, open‑source, or third‑party models into Foundry agents while retaining control over model endpoints, security policies, and governance.
