Microsoft Azure​

  • Create an account in Microsoft Azure.
  • Get access to Azure OpenAI Services.
  • Go to Azure AI Foundry (formerly Azure OpenAI Studio) and deploy a model. Note the deployment name you give it.
  • Open the deployment and select View code. It shows two things you need:
    • the API key
    • the endpoint. Either form works in CodeGPT:
      • the resource host only, for example https://my-resource.openai.azure.com
      • the full request URL from the code sample, for example https://my-resource.openai.azure.com/openai/deployments/my-deployment/chat/completions?api-version=2024-10-21. When you paste this form, CodeGPT uses the deployment and api-version from it.
  • In the CodeGPT extension, open Select your model → Manage Models → API Keys and pick Azure as the provider.
  • Paste the endpoint into Custom Link and the key into API Key, then click Connect.
  • Select a model. The model name must be your deployment name as shown in Azure, not the underlying model's name. If your deployment is not in the list, type it in.
  • Click outside the options and ask something in the chat.
api-version

If you paste only the resource host, CodeGPT calls the 2024-10-21 API version. To use a different version, paste the full request URL from View code and CodeGPT will use the api-version it contains.

API Errors​

  • 404 Resource not found: the model name in CodeGPT does not match a deployment name in your resource, or the endpoint points at a different resource.
  • 401 Access denied: wrong key, or the key belongs to another resource.
  • Other errors: check the Microsoft Azure Documentation.
