## Environment Variables
Make sure to set the following environment variables before running the examples:
Before running the examples, you need to set up your environment variables. You can do this in one of two ways:
- `AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT`: Your Azure AI project endpoint
- `AZURE_AI_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME`: The name of your model deployment
### Option 1: Using a .env file (Recommended)
1. Copy the `.env.example` file from the `python` directory to create a `.env` file:
```bash
cp ../../.env.example ../../.env
```
2. Edit the `.env` file and add your values:
```
AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT="your-project-endpoint"
AZURE_AI_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME="your-model-deployment-name"
```
3. For samples using Bing Grounding search (like `azure_ai_with_bing_grounding.py` and `azure_ai_with_multiple_tools.py`), you'll also need:
```
BING_CONNECTION_ID="/subscriptions/{subscription-id}/resourceGroups/{resource-group}/providers/Microsoft.CognitiveServices/accounts/{ai-service-name}/projects/{project-name}/connections/{connection-name}"
```
To get your Bing connection ID:
- Go to [Azure AI Foundry portal](https://ai.azure.com)
- Navigate to your project's "Connected resources" section
- Add a new connection for "Grounding with Bing Search"
- Copy the connection ID
### Option 2: Using environment variables directly
Set the environment variables in your shell:
```bash
export AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT="your-project-endpoint"
export AZURE_AI_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME="your-model-deployment-name"
export BING_CONNECTION_ID="your-bing-connection-id" # Optional, only needed for web search samples
```
### Required Variables
- `AZURE_AI_PROJECT_ENDPOINT`: Your Azure AI project endpoint (required for all examples)
- `AZURE_AI_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME`: The name of your model deployment (required for all examples)
### Optional Variables
- `BING_CONNECTION_ID`: Your Bing connection ID (required for `azure_ai_with_bing_grounding.py` and `azure_ai_with_multiple_tools.py`)
