Azure Functions is the event-driven application platform, and Hosted Skills adds AI reasoning to your app. Dynamic Workflows give the app a durable way to carry out AI-led, multi-step work after the triggering invocation is finished. The model writes a plan (a DAG) one time, and Durable Functions runs it. In our benchmark, token use decreased by 56...

Add bounded AI reasoning to Python function apps with Azure Functions Agent bindings, while keeping deterministic application code in control.

Learn how Azure Functions managed connectors provide access to 1,700 services, with triggers and typed clients available for supported service connectors, and walk through a sample that automates RFP intake across SharePoint, Azure Content Understanding, and Teams.

Learn how to build long-running MCP tools on Azure Functions using Durable Functions. This post explains why synchronous tool calls break down for long-running work, introduces the MCP Tasks extension, and walks through a sample pattern that works with existing request/response clients today.

A roundup of what shipped in the Azure Functions MCP extension since preview: resource and prompt triggers, MCP Apps, built-in MCP authentication, structured and rich content, fluent .NET configuration APIs, and what is coming next.

azure-functions-skills gives GitHub Copilot CLI, Claude Code, Codex CLI, and VS Code the skills, MCP configuration, hooks, and instructions needed to create, diagnose, deploy, and validate Azure Functions projects end-to-end.

Use exponential backoff and circuit breaker patterns in Azure Functions with Service Bus SDK bindings. Control retry storms, protect dependencies, and degrade gracefully under transient failures.

Azure Functions lets you settle each Service Bus message on its own within a batch. Complete, abandon, dead-letter, or defer messages one by one to avoid duplicate processing and handle errors with precision.

Learn how to connect your MCP server hosted on Azure Functions to Microsoft Foundry agents. This post covers authentication options and setup steps to give your AI agent access to custom MCP tools.

Build MCP tools with rich UI experiences using the new Fluent API for MCP Apps in the .NET isolated worker. Configure views, permissions, and security policies with just a few lines of code.
