foundryR’s lifecycle stage is now stable instead of experimental.
After this release, breaking changes to exported functions will go
through a deprecation cycle. Functions marked experimental in their
documentation, and operations that use preview APIs, can still change
without one; see vignette("api-support").
These changes can alter the output of code written for 0.1.0. Most fix behavior that was wrong or that the service rejected.
foundry_transcribe() now uses standard Speech fast
transcription by default, with no enhanced mode and no model. The old
default, enhanced mode with mai-transcribe-1.5, is rejected
in many regions, including East US 2. Pass
model = "mai-transcribe-2" or the new
enhanced = TRUE to use MAI-Transcribe or LLM Speech where
they are available.foundry_translate_audio() no longer defaults to a
MAI-Transcribe model for Speech translation, because MAI-Transcribe does
not translate. Speech translation still needs LLM Speech enhanced
mode.foundry_transcribe() and
foundry_translate_audio() with
service = "openai", and foundry_speak()) now
require an explicit model deployment name instead of
falling back to AZURE_FOUNDRY_MODEL, which usually names a
chat deployment.foundry_file_upload() no longer sends a 30-day expiry
by default (expires_after_seconds = NULL). The service
rejects an expiry for purpose = "assistants", which is the
default purpose, so default uploads failed. Pass
expires_after_seconds to set an expiry on batch files.foundry_moderate() now labels severities on Microsoft’s
scale: 0-1 safe, 2-3 low, 4-5 medium, 6-7 high. The old labels were
wrong on the eight-level scale; severity 1, for example, was labeled
“low”.foundry_moderate() and foundry_shield()
keep the full input text instead of truncating it, and gain an
.input_idx column for joining results back to your data.
foundry_shield() names documents by their original
position, so skipping an empty document no longer renumbers the rest.
foundry_moderate() gains a blocklist_hit
column.foundry_moderate(), foundry_shield(), and
foundry_groundedness() return NA when the
service omits a safety field, instead of reporting the input as safe or
clean.foundry_extract() returns your columns first, then the
extracted fields, then the dot-prefixed metadata. Field types now follow
the schema: a JSON null becomes a typed NA,
and array and object fields are always list-columns. It stops before
sending any request when a schema field has the same name as one of your
columns.foundry_extract() and
foundry_embed_batch() show progress bars only in
interactive sessions. Set options(foundryR.progress = TRUE)
to see them in scripts.foundry_embed_batch() stores only each row’s own
metadata in raw_response. It used to copy the whole batch
response, every embedding included, into every row: 22 MB instead of 2.5
MB in memory for 200 texts.foundry_usage() no longer counts cached input tokens
twice. The input token count the service reports includes cached tokens,
so the cost is now
(input - cached) * input + cached * cached_input + output * output,
and cached tokens are billed at the input rate when no
cached_input rate is given.foundry_agreement() no longer switches to irr when it
is installed. It always uses its own two-coder Krippendorff’s alpha, so
results no longer depend on which packages are installed. Kappa and
alpha are NA, with a warning, when only one category
occurs. Macro precision, recall, and F1 use one label set and drop
classes whose value is undefined, with a warning, as yardstick does. It
also warns when the two label sets differ and reports how many
incomplete pairs it dropped.foundry_consistency() compares records after sorting
their keys, at full numeric precision. Key order no longer counts as a
disagreement, and values are no longer rounded to four decimals before
comparison.foundry_provenance() records a 64-character SHA-256
schema hash, the same one foundry_codebook() uses, and a
UTC timestamp. Hashes recorded by 0.1.0 will not match.step_foundry_embed() resolves the embedding model at
prep() and keeps it, so changing
AZURE_FOUNDRY_EMBED_MODEL later no longer changes the model
bake() uses. The disk cache key now includes the model and
the endpoint.foundry_evaluate() runs a Microsoft Foundry cloud
evaluation from a data frame. It creates the evaluation and run, waits
for the run, and returns one row per input row and grader with the input
columns kept. It grades existing columns, or has Foundry generate
responses with a model deployment or agent first (target),
and eval_id adds a run to an existing evaluation so runs
can be compared. Rows are matched to results through a reserved
foundryr_row_id field ("row-1",
"row-2", …) that the service echoes back, never by
position. This function and the two below are experimental.foundry_eval_run_wait() polls an evaluation run until
it finishes, and foundry_eval_run_results() joins a
completed run’s grader results to the evaluated data frame.foundry_eval_run_data() builds target runs for model
deployments and agents (target,
input_messages) and stored-response runs
(response_ids). foundry_eval_data_config()
gains type = "azure_ai_source" with a scenario
argument.project_endpoint argument.
They use the resource endpoint, as in 0.1.0, unless you pass
project_endpoint, call
foundry_set_route("project"), or the evaluation uses a
feature that exists only on a project endpoint: built-in evaluators, a
model or agent target, or stored responses. Those calls use the
configured project endpoint and print a message saying so. Target and
stored-response runs get a default name, which the service
requires.per_testing_criteria_results, target latency
(target_latency_p50_ms, target_latency_p95_ms,
target_latency_samples), and estimated target cost
(target_cost, target_cost_currency,
target_cost_completeness). Output-item tibbles include the
echoed datasource_item and the generated
sample_output_text and
sample_output_items.foundry_set_route() chooses the default endpoint for
the APIs that run on both a resource and a project endpoint: responses,
files, vector stores, and evaluations. The default remains the resource
endpoint.foundry_conversation_*()
functions use the project endpoint, the only place conversations exist;
in 0.1.0 they called the resource endpoint and always failed with HTTP
404. They gain token and project_endpoint
arguments.project_endpoint,
and vector store functions gain token, so the files and
stores that a server-side agent searches can be created where the agent
looks for them.foundry_response() and foundry_extract()
gain a token argument.foundry_extract_batch_results() collects a finished
extraction batch later, joins the results to the original rows through
their row-N IDs, and flattens the fields the way
foundry_extract() does. It warns about input rows that have
no result. foundry_extract_batch(wait = TRUE) now uses
it.foundry_moderate() gains a blocklist_hit
column, and foundry_transcribe() gains an
enhanced argument.foundry_check_setup() reports project-endpoint
authentication and the session route, and shows only the last four
characters of an API key.vignette("evaluations")) and the
analysis of evaluation results
(vignette("evaluation-analysis")). The comparison with
ellmer now lives in the README and
vignette("responses-api"). The ONET article is
rewritten as a worked example of matching free-text job descriptions to
ONET-SOC occupations, with its output recorded live.foundry_video_job_create(),
foundry_video_jobs(), foundry_video_job_get(),
foundry_video_job_delete(),
foundry_video_get(), and
foundry_video_download() are defunct and raise an error.
Azure OpenAI retires its last Sora model (sora-2, version
2025-12-08) on 2026-10-15 and has announced no replacement.type_boolean(), type_enum(),
type_number(), and type_string() are
deprecated in favor of schema_boolean(),
schema_enum(), schema_number(), and
schema_string(), because they mask ellmer’s functions of
the same names. To reuse ellmer types, pass them to
as_foundry_schema().foundry_groundedness() (reasoning,
correction, and llm_resource) and
foundry_llm_resource() are deprecated. They require an
Azure OpenAI GPT-4o deployment, and the core groundedness check does not
need them.error fields no
longer break error handling.foundry_blocklist_delete() and
foundry_blocklist_remove_items() no longer fail after a
successful call; the service answers 204 with no body.foundry_blocklist_create() without a description sends
{}, not [], which the service rejected.
Conversation and vector store updates with no fields send
{} as well.foundry_moderate() keeps blocklist matches when a
blocklist hit halts analysis and labels those rows “blocked”. It used to
drop them.foundry_groundedness(correction = TRUE) sends
correction, the field the service reads; Microsoft Learn
documents mitigating, which the live service ignores.
ungrounded_pct is always numeric.foundry_protected_code() checks the service’s length
requirement, more than 110 characters per snippet, before sending a
request.foundry_batch_results() leaves plain-text output as
text instead of reporting a JSON parse error, and reads downloaded
output as UTF-8. foundry_batch_requests() writes numbers at
full precision and missing values as null, and separates
lines with \n on every platform; on Windows it used to
write \r\n.foundry_embed() and foundry_embed_batch()
treat empty strings like missing input: the row gets an error and
nothing is sent.foundry_usage() accepts rates as a named list.foundry_transcribe() places
transcribe_style under
enhancedMode.modelOptions, as Microsoft Learn documents,
reports enhanced-mode region failures with guidance, and fills
duration_ms from Whisper verbose_json
responses.foundry_vector_search() returns the text of each
content part rather than the parts’ type labels.foundry_eval_delete() warns when the service does not
confirm the deletion. A project endpoint has been observed to answer
deleted = false and keep the evaluation.foundry_eval_run_results() reports each grader under
the name you gave it; the resource endpoint appends an ID to grader
names, which is now removed from .grader. For
label_model and score_model graders,
.label and .reason (and label and
reason in foundry_eval_run_output_items()) now
hold the judge’s chosen label and the conclusions of its reasoning,
which were empty.foundry_translate_audio() gives region guidance when
the Speech resource cannot translate, including the “specified model is
not supported” answer seen in regions without LLM Speech
translation.foundry_eval_run_output_items() follows the service’s
pagination and returns every output item. It previously returned only
the first page, which silently truncated larger runs. limit
still caps the number of output items returned.codebook_diff() shows key-level changes inside a
changed field, such as enum: +workload, instead of cutting
values off at 77 characters.foundry_models() is documented correctly: it lists the
models available to your resource, not your deployments.foundry_extract() and
foundry_extract_batch_results() mark a row as an error when
the response carries no structured data, and .error_msg
names the reason, such as a refusal, a content-filter stop, a
token-limit stop, or JSON that did not parse. These rows used to have
empty fields and .error = FALSE, so they looked like valid
missing answers.foundry_image() fills output_format for
gpt-image models, which report the format once for the whole response
instead of once per image.foundry_evaluate(eval_id = ...) reads the item schema
of an evaluation stored on a project endpoint, which reports it in a
different place from the resource endpoint. It used to warn that it
could not read the schema and skip the check that the evaluation can
carry your columns.foundry_transcribe() fills language for
Speech fast transcription from the locales the service reports on each
phrase. It was always NA.foundry_set_token_provider() warns when an Azure CLI
provider requests tokens for the wrong kind of endpoint. Project
endpoints need https://ai.azure.com tokens and resource
endpoints need Cognitive Services tokens. Setup and error messages now
suggest foundry_token_azure_cli("https://ai.azure.com") for
project endpoints.foundry_agreement() reports
Fleiss’ kappa. It reports Cohen’s kappa and Krippendorff’s alpha; the
entry has been corrected.Initial CRAN release of foundryR, a tidy interface to Microsoft Foundry (formerly Azure AI Foundry).

and content downloads.store = TRUE now persist
under tools::R_user_dir("foundryR", "config") instead of
modifying .Renviron.foundry_moderate(),
foundry_moderate_image(), and
foundry_protected_material() now accept resource-scoped
Microsoft Entra token providers in addition to Content Safety API
keys.foundry_response() and its retrieve, cancel, delete,
and input-item helpers now accept an explicit
project_endpoint, keeping agent-backed response lifecycles
on one project endpoint.foundry_token_azure_cli(),
foundry_token_azure_identity(),
foundry_set_token(), and
foundry_set_token_provider() now separate resource and
project authentication, default resource tokens to the documented
Cognitive Services audience, and use the AI audience only for project
operations.step_foundry_embed() now checks for recipes before
generating its default step identifier, and generics is declared for its
exported tidy() method.foundry_groundedness() now supports the Content Safety
correction feature via correction = TRUE with a
bring-your-own Azure OpenAI deployment described by the new
foundry_llm_resource(), returning a
correction_text column, and surfaces per-segment
ungrounded_reasons when reasoning = TRUE.codebook_diff() returns a printable character-vector
object, so assigning the result produces no console output;
format() returns the plain diff lines.as_foundry_schema() now converts
ellmer::type_object() specifications to strict JSON Schema,
so ellmer users can reuse existing type definitions in
foundry_extract() and foundry_response().foundry_agreement() now reports Krippendorff’s alpha
alongside Cohen’s kappa, using irr when installed and a base-R nominal
fallback otherwise.foundry_chat() now accepts
reasoning_effort and returns reasoning_tokens
and cached_input_tokens when chat-completions responses
report those fields.foundry_chat() now defaults to the
/openai/v1/chat/completions endpoint while keeping
api = "deployment" as a legacy escape hatch.foundry_embed() now uses the
/openai/v1/embeddings array endpoint by default, returns
row-level .error and .error_msg fields, and
keeps api = "deployment" as a legacy escape hatch.foundry_extract() now accepts data frames with
text_col, preserves original columns, runs requests in
parallel, and returns parse or HTTP failures as .error rows
instead of aborting the whole job.foundry_image() now uses the v1 preview image
generation endpoint by default, supports newer image options such as
output_format, output_compression,
background, and moderation, and keeps the
legacy deployment endpoint available with
api = "deployment".foundry_moderate() now supports Content Safety
blocklists and keeps raw response payloads in list-columns.foundry_models() now calls the v1 model and deployment
metadata endpoints instead of sending a dummy chat request.foundry_response() now accepts background,
conversation, prompt-cache, parallel-tool-call, max-tool-call,
safety-identifier, and reasoning-summary controls from the v1 Responses
API.foundry_response() accepts foundry_tool()
objects in tools, strips local R function references from
request bodies, and returns cached_input_tokens when the
Responses API reports cached input tokens.foundry_similarity() now computes all pairwise cosine
similarities with a single vectorized matrix product, supports
top_k, and can return a similarity matrix with
as_matrix = TRUE.step_foundry_embed() supports
cache = "disk", which stores embeddings in the R session’s
temporary directory unless you supply cache_dir for a
persistent cache, and builds all embedding columns in one pass.foundry_transcribe(),
foundry_translate_audio(), and foundry_speak()
now accept api = "deployment" to reach OpenAI audio models
through the /openai/deployments/{model}/... path, so a
whisper transcription or translation deployment works
alongside the default v1 data-plane path.data-raw/record-doc-outputs.R, which captures every
API response as a sanitized httptest2 fixture; all later builds (R CMD
check, pkgdown, CRAN, CI) replay those fixtures and render the real
tibbles, images, and audio with no credentials and no network calls.
When fixtures are absent the API chunks simply do not evaluate, so
nothing is fabricated. Replay restores the session’s environment
variables and options when it finishes.foundry_embed(), ranks occupations by semantic similarity,
and summarizes the top match with foundry_chat(); the
redactor now strips the O*NET X-API-Key header so its
fixtures carry no secrets.These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
