Get Started with Microsoft Agent Framework A2A

Please install this package via pip:

pip install agent-framework-a2a --pre

A2A Agent Integration

The A2A agent integration enables communication with remote A2A-compliant agents using the standardized A2A protocol. This allows your Agent Framework applications to connect to agents running on different platforms, languages, or services.

Basic Usage Example

See the A2A agent examples which demonstrate:

  • Connecting to remote A2A agents
  • Sending messages and receiving responses
  • Handling different content types (text, files, data)
  • Streaming responses and real-time interaction
