Azure AI Foundry is an enterprise AI operations platform that lets you build, train, and deploy generative AI models and AI agents. When you integrate Azure AI Foundry, you integrate the metadata of your AI models and AI agents from Azure AI Foundry to the Collibra Platform. The resulting assets are listed below:
- AI Base Model refers to base models used in your Azure AI Foundry workspace.
- AI Model Deployment refers to a deployment of an AI model in Azure AI Foundry
- Azure AI Foundry Model Version refers to a specific implementation of the model logic and parameters that serves as the audited model version before it is activated in Azure AI Foundry
- Azure AI Foundry Agent refers to an Agent created in the Azure AI Foundry Agent Builder.
- AI Agents are only available in the following regions:
- australiaeast
- eastus
- eastus2
- francecentral
- japaneast
- norwayeast
- southindia
- swedencentral
- uksouth
- westus
- westus3
- AI Agent Version refers to the version of an Azure AI Foundry agent. Azure AI Foundry agents always have a single version.
- AI Agent Tool refers to a tool type that an agent version can invoke.
- Azure AI Foundry Project refers to an Azure AI Foundry resource that manages the development, deployment, and management of AI models and agents.
- AI Monitor refers to the automated tracking parameters and alerting thresholds used to observe a deployment’s real-world performance and detect deviations from expected behavior.
- AI Endpoint refers to the access point for external systems.

Supported data sources
The Azure AI Foundry integration has two independent tabs in the integration settings. You don't need to configure both:
- Azure AI Foundry: AI models, deployments, projects, and related assets from Azure ML workspaces. For AI agents ingested from Azure AI Foundry, the integration also collects operational trust metrics from Azure's continuous evaluation feature (pass/fail) and Azure Monitor (token counts).
- Microsoft Copilot Studio: Copilot Studio agents, including GitHub Copilot-powered agents, from one or more Dataverse environments. These agents are ingested as the base AI Agent asset type, not the Azure AI Foundry Agent subtype used for Foundry agents. Only Dataverse environments in the Microsoft public (commercial) cloud are supported. Sovereign clouds such as US government (GCC High and DoD) and China aren't supported.
-
You can configure Edge connections and capabilities without an active AI Governance license. However, AI Governance must be enabled to harvest AI model and agent metadata, ingest corresponding AI assets in Data Catalog, and access the dashboards and features necessary to visualize and govern your AI landscape.
- You can integrate Azure AI Foundry only via Edge.
- To integrate Microsoft Copilot Studio assets, you need Collibra version 2026.09 or newer.
