Using Images with AI Agents

This sample demonstrates how to use image multi-modality with an AI agent. It shows how to create a vision-enabled agent that can analyze and describe images using Azure OpenAI.

What this sample demonstrates

  • Creating a persistent AI agent with vision capabilities
  • Sending both text and image content to an agent in a single message
  • Using UriContent to Uri referenced images
  • Processing multimodal input (text + image) with an AI agent

Key features

  • Vision Agent: Creates an agent specifically instructed to analyze images
  • Multimodal Input: Combines text questions with image uri in a single message
  • Azure OpenAI Integration: Uses AzureOpenAI LLM agents

Prerequisites

Before running this sample, ensure you have:

  1. An Azure OpenAI project set up
  2. A compatible model deployment (e.g., gpt-4o)
  3. Azure CLI installed and authenticated

Environment Variables

Set the following environment variables:

$env:AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT="https://your-resource.openai.azure.com/" # Replace with your Azure OpenAI endpoint
$env:AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT_NAME="gpt-4o" # Replace with your model deployment name (optional, defaults to gpt-4o)

Run the sample

Navigate to the sample directory and run:

cd Agent_Step08_UsingImages
dotnet run

Expected behavior

The sample will:

  1. Create a vision-enabled agent named "VisionAgent"
  2. Send a message containing both text ("What do you see in this image?") and a Uri image of a green walk
  3. The agent will analyze the image and provide a description
  4. Clean up resources by deleting the thread and agent
