After three months running Model Router in our private ChatGPT app, I figured it was time to share what actually works in production versus what the documentation says should work. Part 1 covered the architecture and decision framework. This post walks through the real implementation – deployment, code, monitoring, and the edge cases that aren’t obvious until you hit them.Fair warning: this gets technical. I’m showing you the .NET code we use, the telemetry patterns…
I’ve been working with Azure OpenAI for the past year at Advania, building a custom AI application for one of our enterprise clients. Users can create folders, organize their chats, ask anything from simple questions to complex analysis, and upload Word or Excel files for document analysis. We’ve wired it up to Azure AI Search, Azure AI Agents with code interpreter, Fabric for data access, and Bing grounding for web search.One pattern kept repeating: we’d…
In Part 1, we explored the fundamental shift from manual SharePoint indexing to Azure AI Foundry’s SharePoint grounding tool. In Part 2, we built a complete, production-ready SharePoint agent system with multiple agent types. Now it’s time to tackle the most critical aspect of enterprise SharePoint AI agents: proper identity passthrough and delegated permissions. This is where many implementations fall short in real-world scenarios, and where the true power of Microsoft 365 Copilot API’s identity…
In Part 1, we explored the fundamental shift from manual SharePoint indexing to Azure AI Foundry’s SharePoint grounding tool. We covered the challenges of traditional approaches, the power of Microsoft 365 Copilot API, and the economic considerations for enterprise adoption. Now it’s time to get our hands dirty with the actual implementation. In this part, we’ll build a complete, production-ready SharePoint agent system. Prerequisites and Setup Before diving into implementation, ensure you have the following…
You know that feeling when you’ve spent weeks building a custom indexing pipeline for SharePoint content, complete with incremental updates, change tracking, and governance controls—only to discover that Microsoft just released a tool that does all of this automatically? Many companies these days store thousands of policy documents, procedures, and knowledge base articles scattered across multiple SharePoint sites. The existing solution required manually extracting content, chunking it into a vector store like Azure AI Search,…
