# Azure OpenAI

> Using Azure OpenAI Service with Upsonic

## Overview

Azure OpenAI Service provides access to OpenAI models through Microsoft Azure with enterprise features, compliance, and regional deployment.

**Model Class:** `OpenAIChatModel` (uses Azure provider)

## Authentication

```bash theme={null}
export AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT="https://your-resource.openai.azure.com/"
export AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY="..."
export OPENAI_API_VERSION="2024-02-15-preview"
```

## Examples

```python theme={null}
from upsonic import Agent, Task
from upsonic.models.azure import AzureModel

model = AzureModel(model_name="gpt-4o")
agent = Agent(model=model)

task = Task("Hello, how are you?")
result = agent.do(task)
print(result)
```

## Model Settings

You can set model parameters in two ways: on the model or on the Agent.

**On the model:**

```python theme={null}
from upsonic import Agent, Task
from upsonic.models.azure import AzureModel, AzureModelSettings

model = AzureModel(
    model_name="gpt-4o",
    settings=AzureModelSettings(max_tokens=1024, temperature=0.7)
)
agent = Agent(model=model)
```

**On the Agent:**

```python theme={null}
from upsonic import Agent, Task
from upsonic.models.azure import AzureModelSettings

agent = Agent(
    model="azure/gpt-4o",
    settings=AzureModelSettings(max_tokens=1024, temperature=0.7)
)
```

| `top_p` | `float` | Nucleus sampling | 1.0 | Base |
| `seed` | `int` | Random seed | None | Base |
| `stop_sequences` | `list[str]` | Stop sequences | None | Base |
| `presence_penalty` | `float` | Token presence penalty | 0.0 | Base |
| `frequency_penalty` | `float` | Token frequency penalty | 0.0 | Base |
| `logit_bias` | `dict[str, int]` | Token likelihood modifier | None | Base |
| `parallel_tool_calls` | `bool` | Allow parallel tools | True | Base |
| `timeout` | `float` | Request timeout (seconds) | 600 | Base |
