Agent Landing Zone What's new

Major updates by month. See the release notes for all changes and fixes.

November 2026

Release Highlights
v7.3.0 Inline visuals in chat: optional per-agent cards, tables and charts with source-backed follow-ups and restored conversation history. Off by default, with no new Azure resources.
v7.2.0 Optional Entra-only PostgreSQL for fresh custom-application deployments in Bicep and Terraform. Basic uses restricted public access through dedicated NAT; isolation uses Private Link. SQL grants are manual, with independent data-protection locks and guarded recovery/removal.
v7.1.0 Optional service-identity authentication with OBO still the default. Foundry IQ uses the managed knowledge Toolbox. Sources enforce their own authorization, with explicit missing-OBO and tool errors rather than source allowlists or identity fallback.
v7.0.0 Agent App MCP Server with explicit, empty-by-default toolsets. NL2SQL runs through two authenticated MCP tools instead of direct orchestrator SQL. Applications declare their own tools and dependencies above the reusable foundation.
v6.0.0 Native conversations and human-reviewed workflows with state and resume on Foundry Hosted or durable Container Apps. Two public native selection axes: ORCHESTRATION_HOST and APPLICATION_MODE. Authenticated native UI with independently optional history, feedback and private files.

October 2026

Release Highlights
v5.6.0 Clear provider-specific infrastructure layout and shared automation. Embeddings now default to Global Standard in Bicep and Terraform, with explicit regional overrides retained.
v5.5.3 Lower-cost Basic firewall by default for isolated standalone deployments, with matching Bicep/Terraform management networking and topology-aware subnet reservations.
v5.5.0 Integrated per-user knowledge security: native Search document permissions, protected citation downloads and interactive Conditional Access recovery.
v5.4.0 Integrated Terraform with the native azd lifecycle for infrastructure-only and full-stack deployment, using Azure Storage remote state. Bicep remains the default.
v5.3.0 Added 12 default subnets for isolated deployments, including Power Platform and AI Gateway.
v5.2.0 Simplified hosted deployment: azd up now prepares the agent image automatically, with no separate preparation step.
v5.1.0 Added reviewable outbound firewall rules based on each application's declared network requirements.
v5.0.0 Separated Foundry, application and networking resources into three resource groups by default for new deployments.
v4.3.0 Made native Foundry IQ ingestion the default, with standalone ingestion as an option.
v4.0.0 Separate infrastructure and application deployment workflows.

September 2026

Release Highlights
v3.8.0 Made Foundry-hosted agents the default for new deployments, with the administrative panel optional.
