Azure AI Credentials

Prerequisite

Obtain your Azure AI SDK Key before starting the account key setup procedure. The Azure AI SDK Key is a unique secret key provided by Microsoft Azure that allows applications or services to authenticate and securely access Azure AI services, such as Azure Cognitive Services or Azure OpenAI. This key is used by software development kits (SDKs) or APIs to verify that the client has permission to use Azure AI resources. 

All API requests should include your API authentication. For step-by-step instructions on using the authentication method, refer to the Azure AI Quickstart guide: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-foundry/openai/chatgpt-quickstart.

It is generated in the Azure Portal, typically under the specific Azure AI resource (such as Azure Cognitive Services, Language, Vision, or OpenAI).
