Azure AI Agents Persistent SDK for Java

Low-level SDK for creating and managing persistent AI agents with threads, messages, runs, and tools.

Installation

xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.azure</groupId>
    <artifactId>azure-ai-agents-persistent</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0-beta.1</version>
</dependency>

Environment Variables

bash
PROJECT_ENDPOINT=https://<resource>.services.ai.azure.com/api/projects/<project>
MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME=gpt-4o-mini

Authentication

java
import com.azure.ai.agents.persistent.PersistentAgentsClient;
import com.azure.ai.agents.persistent.PersistentAgentsClientBuilder;
import com.azure.identity.DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder;

String endpoint = System.getenv("PROJECT_ENDPOINT");
PersistentAgentsClient client = new PersistentAgentsClientBuilder()
    .endpoint(endpoint)
    .credential(new DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder().build())
    .buildClient();

Key Concepts

The Azure AI Agents Persistent SDK provides a low-level API for managing persistent agents that can be reused across sessions.

Client Hierarchy

Client Purpose
PersistentAgentsClient Sync client for agent operations
PersistentAgentsAsyncClient Async client for agent operations

Core Workflow

1. Create Agent

java
// Create agent with tools
PersistentAgent agent = client.createAgent(
    modelDeploymentName,
    "Math Tutor",
    "You are a personal math tutor."
);

2. Create Thread

java
PersistentAgentThread thread = client.createThread();

3. Add Message

java
client.createMessage(
    thread.getId(),
    MessageRole.USER,
    "I need help with equations."
);

4. Run Agent

java
ThreadRun run = client.createRun(thread.getId(), agent.getId());

// Poll for completion
while (run.getStatus() == RunStatus.QUEUED || run.getStatus() == RunStatus.IN_PROGRESS) {
    Thread.sleep(500);
    run = client.getRun(thread.getId(), run.getId());
}

5. Get Response

java
PagedIterable<PersistentThreadMessage> messages = client.listMessages(thread.getId());
for (PersistentThreadMessage message : messages) {
    System.out.println(message.getRole() + ": " + message.getContent());
}

6. Cleanup

java
client.deleteThread(thread.getId());
client.deleteAgent(agent.getId());

Best Practices

  1. Use DefaultAzureCredential for production authentication
  2. Poll with appropriate delays — 500ms recommended between status checks
  3. Clean up resources — Delete threads and agents when done
  4. Handle all run statuses — Check for RequiresAction, Failed, Cancelled
  5. Use async client for better throughput in high-concurrency scenarios

Error Handling

java
import com.azure.core.exception.HttpResponseException;

try {
    PersistentAgent agent = client.createAgent(modelName, name, instructions);
} catch (HttpResponseException e) {
    System.err.println("Error: " + e.getResponse().getStatusCode() + " - " + e.getMessage());
}
