Quickstart

Basic Agent - .NET

using Azure.AI.OpenAI;
using Azure.Identity;
using Microsoft.Agents.AI;
using OpenAI.Responses;

var endpoint = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT")!;
var deploymentName = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT_NAME")!;

var agent = new AzureOpenAIClient(new Uri(endpoint), new AzureCliCredential())
    .GetResponsesClient(deploymentName)
    .AsAIAgent(name: "HaikuBot", instructions: "You are an upbeat assistant that writes beautifully.");

Console.WriteLine(await agent.RunAsync("Write a haiku about Microsoft Agent Framework."));
