Release highlights
AI Agent Server - Core 1.0.0-beta.27 Changelog
Features Added
- Added a durable key-value state store client under
Azure.AI.AgentServer.Core.Storage.FoundryStateStore.GetOrCreateAsyncbinds (creating if needed) a named, Foundry-backed store; instances expose asyncGetAsync/UpdateAsync/DeleteAsyncfor the store andCreateItemAsync/SetItemAsync/GetItemAsync/DeleteItemAsync/ListKeysAsyncfor its items, with optimistic concurrency (If-Match/ETag), optional per-user isolation, and store-level item TTL. The .NET analogue of the Python SDK’sFoundryStateStore. - Added support for Microsoft Entra authentication when exporting telemetry to Azure Monitor. When
APPLICATIONINSIGHTS_AUTH_MODEis set toEntra, the Azure Monitor exporter attempts to use a system-assigned managed identity credential (falling back to connection-string authentication if the credential cannot be created).
App Configuration 1.11.0 Changelog
Features Added
- Improved authentication in sovereign clouds (such as Bleu) when using a
TokenCredential. Previously, if you did not setConfigurationClientOptions.Audience, the client fell back to the Azure Public Cloud audience and authentication could fail. The client now infers the correct Microsoft Entra audience from your App Configuration endpoint, so no additional configuration is required. Public, Azure China, and Azure US Government endpoints continue to work as before, and you can still setAudienceexplicitly to override the inferred value.
OpenTelemetry AspNetCore 1.6.0 Changelog
Bugs Fixed
- Hardened Azure Monitor ingestion and Live Metrics redirect handling to prevent credentials and telemetry from being forwarded to untrusted destinations. (#61244)
OpenTelemetry Exporter 1.8.3 Changelog
Bugs Fixed
- Hardened ingestion and Live Metrics redirect handling to reject untrusted destinations before replaying telemetry or caching the redirect. Redirect targets must now use HTTPS and match an approved Azure Monitor trust boundary, preventing credentials and telemetry from being forwarded to attacker-controlled endpoints. (#61244)
Personalizer 2.0.0-beta.3 Changelog
Bugs Fixed
Breaking Changes
Features Added
Provisioning - Compute 1.0.0-beta.2 Changelog
Provisioning - Domainregistration 1.0.0-beta.1 Changelog
Resource Management - App Configuration 1.5.0-beta.2 Changelog
Resource Management - Authorization 1.2.0-beta.1 Changelog
Resource Management - Compute Fleet 1.1.0-beta.3 Changelog
Resource Management - Computelimit 1.4.0 Changelog
Resource Management - Container Service 1.6.0 Changelog
Resource Management - Cosmos DB 1.5.0 Changelog
Resource Management - Datadog 1.1.0-beta.2 Changelog
Resource Management - Enclave 1.0.0-beta.1 Changelog
Resource Management - Event Hubs 1.3.0 Changelog
Resource Management - NetApp Files 1.18.0 Changelog
Storage - Blobs 12.30.0-beta.1 Changelog
Features Added
- Added support for service version 2026-10-06.
- Added
AccessTier,AccessTierInferred,AccessTierChangedOn, andSmartAccessTiertoBlobDownloadDetails. - Added support for PUT blob operations returning both the existing MD5 content hash and the new CRC64 checksum.
- Added support for Apache Arrow response format for
GetBlobsandGetBlobsByHierarchy. - Added support for the
EndBeforeproperty inGetBlobsandGetBlobsByHierarchy. Note thatEndBeforeis currently only available for Apache Arrow response format and is not returned for XML response format.
Breaking Changes
- Block IDs generated during partitioned uploads are now randomly generated instead of based on sequential integers. This ensures uniqueness across concurrent uploads to the same blob but means block IDs are no longer predictable or ordered.

Features Added
- Added support for service version 2026-10-06.
Storage - Blobs ChangeFeed 12.0.0-preview.64 Changelog

Features Added
- This release contains bug fixes to improve quality.
Storage - Files Data Lake 12.28.0-beta.1 Changelog
Features Added
- Added support for service version 2026-10-06.
