In May, the Azure SRE Agent was introduced - an AI-powered Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) assistant built to help customers identify, diagnose, and resolve issues across their Azure environments faster and with less manual effort. \n Today, we’re excited to highlight how the SRE Agent now extends these capabilities to Azure API Management (APIM) , delivering deep operational visibility, guided troubleshooting, and intelligent remediation for customers running critical APIs at scale. \n API Management sits at the center of API application architectures, acting as a unified entry point for services, enforcing security, transforming requests, and routing traffic to backends. Ensuring the reliability of this layer is crucial - but as systems grow more distributed, it becomes harder to isolate failures, detect misconfigurations, or trace degraded performance to its root cause. \n The SRE Agent helps APIM users stay ahead of these challenges by providing both diagnostics and remediation tailored for API Management environments. \n You can ask the SRE agent direct API Management questions or concerns such as: \n \n “My API Management is giving me 503 errors” \n “We updated our policies yesterday, and now the backend is timing out.” \n “Can you help me figure out why requests to our billing API are failing?” \n “Show me recent changes to our APIM instance.” \n “What’s the failure rate on our orders operation this week?” \n \n Proactively Monitor API Management App Health \n The SRE Agent continuously monitors the overall health of your API Management service. It tracks key metrics such as CPU utilization, latency, error rates, and availability over time, surfacing any abnormal patterns and offering insight into capacity. \n \n This helps teams anticipate issues before they impact users and plan for scaling with confidence. \n Visualize Backend Connections and Health \n One of the most valuable APIM capabilities introduced with the agent is backend mapping. The agent can identify which backend services each API operation routes to, and visualize the health of those backends. \n \n \n \n This makes it much easier to answer operational questions like: \n \n “Which backend is responsible for the spike in errors on my /checkout API?” \n “Are there any timeouts happening from APIM to service X?” \n \n Drill into Backend App Issues \n If the root cause lies in a backend application - whether it's a service hosted in Azure Container Apps, Azure Functions Apps App Service, or another compute platform - the SRE Agent can go further. It analyzes backend-specific metrics such as memory and CPU usage, response time distribution, recent deployments, and any logged exceptions. \n \n \n \n The agent correlates this backend behavior with the observed degradation at the API Management layer to provide a full stack view of what’s happening. \n For example: \n “Your backend container app failed 37% of requests in the last hour due to out-of-memory errors. This correlated with a 5xx spike at the /stock/check API operation.” \n Detect and Fix Configuration Issues \n The SRE Agent also helps uncover common configuration issues that lead to downtime or silent failures, including: \n \n Malformed API policies \n Missing or misapplied network rules (NSGs, VNet) \n Incorrect scaling configuration or quota enforcement \n \n But it doesn’t stop at diagnostics. Where safe and possible, the agent can also perform remediation with your approval - for example, by adjusting NSG rules, scaling your API Management, etc. \n Built for Teams that Depend on APIM \n If API Management is critical to your infrastructure, the SRE Agent gives you an extra layer of confidence - offering the clarity and tooling needed to maintain uptime, reduce operational overhead, and catch issues before they escalate. \n The APIM-specific capabilities of SRE Agent are now available, and can be used in any SRE Agent resource (currently in preview). \n \n Signup for preview access \n \n We’re excited to bring this level of intelligence and automation to APIM, and we’re looking forward to your feedback as we continue to evolve the experience. \n Additional resources \n \n Azure SRE Agent overview (preview) | Microsoft Learn \n Introducing Azure SRE Agent | Microsoft Community Hub \n ","body@stripHtml({\"removeProcessingText\":true,\"removeSpoilerMarkup\":true,\"removeTocMarkup\":true,\"truncateLength\":-1})@stringLength":"4311","kudosSumWeight":5,"repliesCount":4,"readOnly":false,"images":{"__typename":"AssociatedImageConnection","edges":[{"__typename":"AssociatedImageEdge","cursor":"MjUuM3wyLjF8b3wyNXxfTlZffDE","node":{"__ref":"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDM2NzQzLVFIc1lOSw?revision=2\"}"}},{"__typename":"AssociatedImageEdge","cursor":"MjUuM3wyLjF8b3wyNXxfTlZffDI","node":{"__ref":"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDM2NzQzLUVWaGNQMw?revision=2\"}"}},{"__typename":"AssociatedImageEdge","cursor":"MjUuM3wyLjF8b3wyNXxfTlZffDM","node":{"__ref":"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDM2NzQzLURHV0FrUQ?revision=2\"}"}},{"__typename":"AssociatedImageEdge","cursor":"MjUuM3wyLjF8b3wyNXxfTlZffDQ","node":{"__ref":"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDM2NzQzLUZsc0VkSg?revision=2\"}"}}],"totalCount":4,"pageInfo":{"__typename":"PageInfo","hasNextPage":false,"endCursor":null,"hasPreviousPage":false,"startCursor":null}},"videos":{"__typename":"VideoConnection","edges":[],"totalCount":0,"pageInfo":{"__typename":"PageInfo","hasNextPage":false,"endCursor":null,"hasPreviousPage":false,"startCursor":null}},"coverImage":{"__typename":"UploadedImage","url":"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDM2NzQzLVFIc1lOSw?revision=2"},"coverImageProperties":{"__typename":"CoverImageProperties","style":"STANDARD","titlePosition":"BOTTOM","altText":""}},"Conversation:conversation:4435589":{"__typename":"Conversation","id":"conversation:4435589","topic":{"__typename":"BlogTopicMessage","uid":4435589},"lastPostingActivityTime":"2025-07-24T09:12:21.704-07:00","solved":false},"User:user:1184683":{"__typename":"User","uid":1184683,"login":"budzynski","registrationData":{"__typename":"RegistrationData","status":null},"deleted":false,"avatar":{"__typename":"UserAvatar","url":"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/dS0xMTg0NjgzLTQ2OTY1MGlCQ0I5NUM5Q0U0NTZCQTFG"},"id":"user:1184683"},"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDM1NTg5LWxMV0tHZA?revision=5\"}":{"__typename":"AssociatedImage","url":"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDM1NTg5LWxMV0tHZA?revision=5","title":"2025 Federated API management and API Management workspaces.png","associationType":"COVER","width":3814,"height":1467,"altText":""},"BlogTopicMessage:message:4435589":{"__typename":"BlogTopicMessage","subject":"Workspaces Are Now Generally Available In Azure API Management Premium v2","conversation":{"__ref":"Conversation:conversation:4435589"},"id":"message:4435589","revisionNum":5,"uid":4435589,"depth":0,"board":{"__ref":"Blog:board:IntegrationsonAzureBlog"},"author":{"__ref":"User:user:1184683"},"teaser@stripHtml({\"removeProcessingText\":true,\"truncateLength\":-1})":"","introduction":"","metrics":{"__typename":"MessageMetrics","views":438},"postTime":"2025-07-23T07:34:07.164-07:00","lastPublishTime":"2025-07-23T07:42:00.796-07:00","body@stripHtml({\"removeProcessingText\":true,\"removeSpoilerMarkup\":true,\"removeTocMarkup\":true,\"truncateLength\":-1})":" We’re excited to announce the general availability of workspaces and workspace gateways in the Premium v2 tier of Azure API Management!

This feature allows API managers to register Microsoft Entra ID applications, streamlining secure API access for developers through OAuth 2.0 authorization. \n API publishers and developers can now more effectively manage client identity, access, and authorization flows. \n With this feature: \n \n API managers can identify which products require OAuth authorization by setting a product property to enable application-based access \n API managers can create and manage client applications and assign them access to specific products. \n Developers can see their registered applications in API management developer portal and use OAuth tokens to securely call APIs and products \n OAuth tokens presented in API requests are validated by the API Management gateway to authorize access to the product's APIs. \n \n This feature simplifies identity and access management in API programs, enabling a more secure and scalable approach to API consumption. \n Enable OAuth authorization \n API managers can now identify specific products which are protected by Microsoft Entra identity by enabling \"Application based access\". This ensures that only valid client applications which have a secure OAuth token from Microsoft Entra identity can access the APIs associated with this product. An application is created in Microsoft Entra corresponding to the product, with appropriate app role. \n \n Register client applications and assign products \n API managers can register client applications, identify specific developers as owners of these applications and assign products to these applications. This creates a new application in Microsoft Entra and assigns API permissions to access the product. \n \n Securely access the API using client applications \n Developers can login into API management developer portal and see the appropriate applications assigned to them.

You may have already encountered discussions about MCP, so let's clarify some key concepts: \n \n Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standardized way, (a protocol), for AI models to interact with external tools, (and either read data or perform actions) and to enrich context for ANY language models. \n AI Agents/Assistants are autonomous LLM-powered applications with the ability to use tools to connect to external services required to accomplish tasks on behalf of users. \n Tools are components made available to Agents allowing them to interact with external systems, perform computation, and take actions to achieve specific goals. \n Azure API Management: As a platform-as-a-service, API Management supports the complete API lifecycle, enabling organizations to create, publish, secure, and analyze APIs with built-in governance, security, analytics, and scalability. \n \n New Cool Kid in Town - MCP \n AI Agents are becoming widely adopted due to enhanced Large Language Model (LLM) capabilities. However, even the most advanced models face limitations due to their isolation from external data. Each new data source requires custom implementations to extract, prepare, and make data accessible for any model(s). - A lot of heavy lifting. \n Anthropic developed an open-source standard - the Model Context Protocol (MCP), to connect your agents to external data sources such as local data sources (databases or computer files) or remote services (systems available over the internet through e.g. APIs). \n \n \n \n MCP Hosts: LLM applications such as chat apps or AI assistant in your IDEs (like GitHub Copilot in VS Code) that need to access external capabilities \n MCP Clients: Protocol clients that maintain 1:1 connections with servers, inside the host application \n MCP Servers: Lightweight programs that each expose specific capabilities and provide context, tools, and prompts to clients \n MCP Protocol: Transport layer in the middle \n \n At its core, MCP follows a client-server architecture where a host application can connect to multiple servers. Whenever your MCP host or client needs a tool, it is going to connect to the MCP server. The MCP server will then connect to for example a database or an API. MCP hosts and servers will connect with each other through the MCP protocol. \n \n You can create your own custom MCP Servers that connect to your or organizational data sources. \n For a quick start, please visit our GitHub repository to learn how to build a remote MCP server using Azure Functions without authentication: https://aka.ms/mcp-remote \n \n Remote vs. Local MCP Servers \n The MCP standard supports two modes of operation: \n \n Remote MCP servers: MCP clients connect to MCP servers over the Internet, establishing a connection using HTTP and Server-Sent Events (SSE), and authorizing the MCP client access to resources on the user's account using OAuth. \n Local MCP servers: MCP clients connect to MCP servers on the same machine, using stdio as a local transport method. \n \n Azure API Management as the AI Auth Gateway \n Now that we have learned that MCP servers can connect to remote services through an API. The question now rises, how can we expose our remote MCP servers in a secure and scalable way? This is where Azure API Management comes in. A way that we can securely and safely expose tools as MCP servers. Azure API Management provides: \n \n Security: AI agents often need to access sensitive data. API Management as a remote MCP proxy safeguards organizational data through authentication and authorization. \n Scalability: As the number of LLM interactions and external tool integrations grows, API Management ensures the system can handle the load. \n \n Security remains to be a critical piece of building MCP servers, as agents will need to securely connect to protected endpoints (tools) to perform certain actions or read protected data. When building remote MCP servers, you need a way to allow users to login (Authenticate) and allow them to grant the MCP client access to resources on their account (Authorization). \n MCP - Current Authorization Challenges \n State: 4/10/2025 Recent changes in MCP authorization have sparked significant debate within the community. \n 🔍 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 with the Authorization Changes: \n \n The MCP server is now treated as both a resource server AND an authorization server. \n This dual role has fundamental implications for MCP server developers and runtime operations. \n \n 💡 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: To address these challenges, we recommend using 𝗔𝘇𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗣𝗜 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 as your authorization gateway for remote MCP servers. \n \n \n \n 🔗For an enterprise-ready solution, please check out our azd up sample repo to learn how to build a remote MCP server using Azure API Management as your authentication gateway: https://aka.ms/mcp-remote-apim-auth \n \n The Authorization Flow \n \n The workflow involves three core components: the MCP client, the APIM Gateway, and the MCP server, with Microsoft Entra managing authentication (AuthN) and authorization (AuthZ). \n Using the OAuth protocol, the client starts by calling the APIM Gateway, which redirects the user to Entra for login and consent. \n Once authenticated, Entra provides an access token to the Gateway, which then exchanges a code with the client to generate an MCP server token. \n This token allows the client to communicate securely with the server via the Gateway, ensuring user validation and scope verification. \n Finally, the MCP server establishes a session key for ongoing communication through a dedicated message endpoint. \n \n \n Diagram source: https://aka.ms/mcp-remote-apim-auth-diagram \n Conclusion \n Azure API Management (APIM) is an essential tool for enterprise customers looking to integrate AI models with external tools using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). In this blog, we've emphasized the simplicity of connecting AI agents to various data sources through MCP, streamlining previously complex implementations. Given the critical role of secure access to platforms and services for AI agents, APIM offers robust solutions for managing OAuth tokens and ensuring secure access to protected endpoints, making it an invaluable asset for enterprises, despite the challenges of authentication. \n API Management: An Enterprise Solution for Securing MCP Servers \n Azure API Management is an essential tool for enterprise customers looking to integrate AI models with external tools using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It is designed to help you to securely expose your remote MCP servers. \n \n MCP servers are still very new, and as the technology evolves, API Management provides an enterprise-ready solution that will evolve with the latest technology. Stay tuned for further feature announcements soon! \n \n \n Acknowledgments \n This post and work was made possible thanks to the hard work and dedication of our incredible team.

In this issue: \n \n Ace Aviator of the Month \n News from our product group \n News from our community \n \n \n Ace Aviator of the Month \n July’s Ace Aviator: Şahin Özdemir \n \n What's your role and title? What are your responsibilities? \n I currently work for Rubicon Cloud Advisor, a Dutch company specialized in digital transformations, cloud adoption and AI implementation. \n At Rubicon I fulfil the role of Application and Integration architect, while also being a Professional Scrum Trainer at Scrum.org. Even though this sounds like two completely different roles, in practice both go closely hand in hand. I firmly believe that good architecture, a strong development process, and application of best practices are key pillars for delivering high-quality solutions to my clients. Therefore, both roles come in handy in my day-to-day job (combined with my strong background in software development).\\ \n I work closely with companies and their teams in making their journey to Azure - especially Azure Integration Services - successful. Most of the time this journey starts with a business need or challenge, and I work with my clients to get a deeper understanding of their needs. This results in further analysis, capturing requirements, defining architecture, solution design, setting the stage for development (ALM) and being involved in quality assurance. \n At the same time, I think it’s important to stay relevant from a technical perspective. That’s why I also like being involved with implementing the solution. This way, I hear the technical struggles teams face and I can help them to find the right solution. \n Can you give us some insights into your day-to-day activities and what a typical day in your role looks like? \n Not a single day is the same, although there are some recurring activities. \n \n Specific parts of my day (or sprint) are dedicated to Scrum-related activities - whether it's participating in the daily scrum, having sprint reviews with stakeholders, planning the next sprint, or refining the backlog with the team or just aligning with the PO or stakeholders. \n I’m frequently involved in cross-organizational meetings focused on projects at scale. I contribute from the perspective of architecture, technical expertise, and integration strategy. In my role as a solution architect, I'm engaged in designing and implementing a critical integration platform for my client. This platform connects and exchanges data between many internal departments and external vendors - an effort that requires frequent alignment and collaboration. \n I’m always looking for opportunities to expand our Hybrid Integration Platform itself. Exploring how Azure resources may add value to our platform and working closely with the team to realize such improvements to the platform’s capabilities is something I enjoy. \n Outside of the regular meetings, I often focus on designing new integrations. Having working sessions with stakeholders to understand what they want. Based on these discussions, I assess the technical and architectural aspects of the solution. \n Every integration that lands on the platform is measured against both architectural and development principles and guidelines. I contribute to reviewing the solutions that have been developed. Ensuring that each integration is high-quality, consistent, easy to understand, and maintainable. \n I support the platform team with, and whenever possible. And if time permits, I develop parts of the solution myself – I see this as a great way to stay relevant from a technological perspective. \n All the spare time I have, I spend on writing technical articles that may help others. \n \n What motivates and inspires you to be an active member of the Aviators/Microsoft community? \n Because I enjoy helping others. \n Every day I work with a team of smart professionals on integration solutions and custom code within the Azure platform. Along the way, we regularly encounter challenges, limitations, or issues. In those moments, it's incredibly helpful to find solutions online or to have a community that can think along with you. \n Over the past few years, there have been many occasions where I just couldn’t find a solution online for a technical problem with Logic Apps. In these cases, we either came up with a creative solution ourselves or received support from Microsoft. When the integration community faces a similar challenge, it’s pretty much wasteful to tackle the same hurdles again. By documenting an approach or solution, others may be saving their invaluable time looking for a solution. \n Looking back, what advice do you wish you had been given earlier that you'd now share with those looking to get into STEM/technology? \n It is ok that you don’t know everything. Just start doing, experiment, stay curious, challenge yourself, don’t be afraid to ask questions, fail, learn and keep going! \n What has helped you grow professionally? \n I have spent a fair amount of my career at a big consulting firm. I started off as a software engineer all the way up to senior manager and architect. \n A long journey like that gives great and well-dosed opportunities and learning experiences to focus on your technical (in-depth) skillset first, continued by working on you soft skills like consulting, guiding and leading teams, solutioning and architecture. If I had not followed this path at that company, I would not be the person I am now professionally. \n Be ok with the fact that growth doesn’t happen overnight -no shortcuts, no magic pills. It's like a good red wine that needs time to mature. \n So do many challenging projects, become all-round and then choose a specialization, ask for constructive feedback, fail many times and take your time to reflect and learn. And don’t forget to have a strong work ethic and ongoing curiosity to learn new things. \n In the end I found that - from a technological perspective-, quality attributes (the “-illities”), enterprise application integration and scrum made my heart skip a beat. So my advice is to always pursue what brings you joy! \n If you had a magic wand that could create a feature in Logic Apps, what would it be and why? \n Overall, I must say that I’m happy with the current state of Logic Apps. Nevertheless, if I had a magic wand: \n \n I would like to see that the service plans for Logic App standard would be in line with Function Apps. The plans for Function apps have way better tiers from both memory, cores and pricing perspective. And being able to scale out and in based on specific metrics is more flexible than Logic App Standard currently offers. Having more CPU/memory available in the plans would also improve the overall performance of Logic Apps in general, even though performance optimizations of many actions would also be more than welcome. \n What I currently really miss in the HTTP connector (and possibly others) is the ability to have better control over the request timeouts. Even though the setting is there, it is capped to 4 minutes max. In practice, we need to deliver data to external APIs that work synchronously and take more time to complete. Giving better control on these timeouts would make the usability of workflows even better! \n Even though some nice additions to the initialization of variables have been made recently, I would like to see the ability to initialize variables at any point in the workflow. E.g. the foreach loop can be executed in parallel, and therefore the current global variables are not thread-safe, which leads to unexpected behavior. \n \n \n News from our product group \n \n \n \n \n \n Logic Apps Live June 2025 \n Missed Logic Apps Live in June?

As AI Agents and assistants become increasingly central to modern applications and experiences, the need for seamless, secure integration with external tools and data sources is more critical than ever. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is emerging as a key open standard enabling these integrations - allowing AI models to interact with APIs, Databases and other services in a consistent, scalable way. \n Understanding MCP \n MCP utilizes a client-host-server architecture built upon JSON-RPC 2.0 for messaging. Communication between clients and servers occurs over defined transport layers, primarily: \n \n stdio: Standard input/output, suitable for efficient communication when the client and server run on the same machine. \n HTTP with Server-Sent Events (SSE): Uses HTTP POST for client-to-server messages and SSE for server-to-client messages, enabling communication over networks, including remote servers. \n \n \n Why MCP Matters \n While Large Language Models (LLMs) are powerful, their utility is often limited by their inability to access real-time or proprietary data. Traditionally, integrating new data sources or tools required custom connectors/ implementations and significant engineering efforts. MCP addresses this by providing a unified protocol for connecting agents to both local and remote data sources - unifying and streamlining integrations. \n Leveraging Azure API Management for remote MCP servers \n Azure API Management is a fully managed platform for publishing, securing, and monitoring APIs. By treating MCP server endpoints as other backend APIs, organizations can apply familiar governance, security, and operational controls. With MCP adoption, the need for robust management of these backend services will intensify. API Management retains a vital role in governing these underlying assets by: \n \n Applying security controls to protect the backend resources. \n Ensuring reliability. \n Effective monitoring and troubleshooting with tracing requests and context flow. \n \n n this blog post, I will walk you through a practical example: hosting an MCP server behind Azure API Management, configuring credential management, and connecting with GitHub Copilot. \n A Practical Example: Automating Issue Triage \n \n To follow along with this scenario, please check out our Model Context Protocol (MCP) lab available at AI-Gateway/labs/model-context-protocol \n \n Let's move from theory to practice by exploring how MCP, Azure API Management (APIM) and GitHub Copilot can transform a common engineering workflow. Imagine you're an engineering manager aiming to streamline your team's issue triage process - reducing manual steps and improving efficiency. \n Example workflow: \n \n Engineers log bugs/ feature requests as GitHub issues \n Following a manual review, a corresponding incident ticket is generated in ServiceNow. \n \n This manual handoff is inefficient and error prone. Let's see how we can automate this process - securely connecting GitHub and ServiceNow, enabling an AI Agent (GitHub Copilot in VS Code) to handle triage tasks on your behalf. \n \n A significant challenge in this integration involves securely managing delegated access to backend APIs, like GitHub and ServiceNow, from your MCP Server. Azure API Management's credential manager solves this by centralizing secure credential storage and facilitating the secure creation of connections to your third-party backend APIs. \n \n Build and deploy your MCP server(s) \n We'll start by building two MCP servers: \n \n GitHub Issues MCP Server\n \n Provides tools to authenticate on GitHub (authorize_github), retrieve user infromation (get_user ) and list issues for a specified repository (list_issues). \n \n \n ServiceNow Incidents MCP Server\n \n Provides tools to authenticate with ServiceNow (authorize_servicenow), list existing incidents (list_incidents) and create new incidents (create_incident). \n \n \n \n \n We are using Azure API Management to secure and protect both MCP servers, which are built using Azure Container Apps. Azure API Management's credential manager centralizes secure credential storage and facilitates the secure creation of connections to your backend third-party APIs. \n \n \n \n \n Client Auth: \n \n You can leverage API Management subscriptions to generate subscription keys, enabling client access to these APIs. \n Optionally, to further secure /sse and /messages endpoints, we apply the validate-jwt policy to ensure that only clients presenting a valid JWT can access these endpoints, preventing unauthorized access. (see: AI-Gateway/labs/model-context-protocol/src/github/apim-api/auth-client-policy.xml) \n \n \n After registering OAuth applications in GitHub and ServiceNow, we update APIM's credential manager with the respective Client IDs and Client Secrets. This enables APIM to perform OAuth flows on behalf of users, securely storing and managing tokens for backend calls to GitHub and ServiceNow. \n \n \n Connecting your MCP Server in VS Code \n With your MCP servers deployed and secured behind Azure API Management, the next step is to connect them to your development workflow. Visual Studio Code now supports MCP, enabling GitHub Copilot's agent mode to connect to any MCP-compatible server and extend its capabilities. \n \n Open Command Pallette and type in MCP: Add Server ... \n \n \n \n Select server type as HTTP (HTTP or Server-Sent Events) \n \n \n \n Paste in the Server URL \n \n \n \n Provide a Server ID \n \n \n This process automatically updates your settings.json with the MCP server configuration. \n \n Once added, GitHub Copilot can connect to your MCP servers and access the defined tools, enabling agentic workflows such as issue triage and automation. You can repeat these steps to add the ServiceNow MCP Server. \n \n Understanding Authentication and Authorization with Credential Manager \n When a user initiates an authentication workflow (e.g, via the authorize_github tool), GitHub Copilot triggers the MCP server to generate an authorization request and a unique login URL. The user is redirected to a consent page, where their registered OAuth application requests permissions to access their GitHub account. Azure API Management acts as a secure intermediary, managing the OAuth flow and token storage. \n \n \n Flow of authorize_github: \n \n \n \n Step 1 - Connection initiation:\n \n GitHub Copilot Agent invokes a sse connection to API Management via the MCP Client (VS Code) \n \n \n Step 2 - Tool Discovery:\n \n APIM forwards the request to the GitHub MCP Server, which responds with available tools \n \n \n Step 3 - Authorization Request:\n \n GitHub Copilot selects and executes authorize_github tool. The MCP server generates an authorization_id for the chat session. \n \n \n Step 4 - User Consent:\n \n If it's the 1st login, APIM requests a login redirect URL from the MCP Server \n The MCP Server sends the Login URL to the client, prompting the user to authenticate with GitHub \n Upon successful login, GitHub redirects the client with an authorization code \n \n \n Step 5 - Token Exchange and Storage:\n \n The MCP Client sends the authorization code to API Management \n APIM exchanges the code for access and refresh tokens from GitHub \n APIM securely stores the token and creates an Access Control List (ACL) for the service principal. \n \n \n Step 6 - Confirmation:\n \n APIM confirms successful authentication to the MCP Client, and the user can now perform authenticated actions, such as accessing private repositories. \n \n \n \n \n Check out the python logic for how to implement it: AI-Gateway/labs/model-context-protocol/src/github/mcp-server/mcp-server.py \n \n Understanding Tool Calling with underlaying APIs in API Management \n \n Using the list_issues tool, \n \n Connection confirmed\n \n APIM confirms the connection to the MCP Client \n \n \n Issue retrieval:\n \n The MCP Client requests issues from the MCP server \n The MCP Server attaches the authorization_id as a header and forwards the request to APIM \n The list of issues is returned to the agent \n \n \n \n \n \n You can use the same process to add the ServiceNow MCP Server. With both servers connected, GitHub Copilot Agent can extract issues from a private repo in GitHub and create new incidences in ServiceNow, automating your triage workflow. You can define additional tools such as suggest_assignee tool, assign_engineer tool, update_incident_status tool, notify_engineer tool, request_feedback tool and other to demonstrate a truly closed-loop, automated engineering workflow - from issue creation to resolution and feedback. \n \n Take a look at this brief demo showcasing the entire end-to-end process: \n \n Summary \n Azure API Management (APIM) is an essential tool for enterprise customers looking to integrate AI models with external tools using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). In this blog, we demonstrated how Azure API Management's credential manager solves the secure creation of connections to your backend APIs. By integrating MCP servers with VS Code and leveraging APIM for OAuth flows and token management, you can enable secure, agenting automation across your engineering tools. This approach not only streamlines workflows like issues triage and incident creation but also ensures enterprise-grade security and governance for all APIs. \n Additional Resources \n Using Credential Manager will help with managing OAuth 2.0 tokens to backend services. \n Client Auth for remote MCP servers: \n \n AZD up: https://aka.ms/mcp-remote-apim-auth \n AI lab Client Auth: AI-Gateway/labs/mcp-client-authorization/mcp-client-authorization.ipynb \n Blog Post: https://aka.ms/remote-mcp-apim-auth-blog \n \n If you have any questions or would like to learn more about how MCP and Azure API Management can benefit your organization, feel free to reach out to us.

As AI-powered agents and large language models (LLMs) become central to modern application experiences, developers and enterprises need seamless, secure ways to connect these models to real-world data and capabilities. Today, we’re excited to introduce two powerful preview capabilities in the Azure API Management Platform: \n \n Expose REST APIs in Azure API Management as remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers \n Discover and manage MCP servers using API Center as a centralized enterprise registry \n \n Together, these updates help customers securely operationalize APIs for AI workloads and improve how APIs are managed and shared across organizations. \n \n Unlocking the value of AI through secure API integration \n While LLMs are incredibly capable, they are stateless and isolated unless connected to external tools and systems. Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard designed to bridge this gap by allowing agents to invoke tools—such as APIs—via a standardized, JSON-RPC-based interface. \n With this release, Azure empowers you to operationalize your APIs for AI integration—securely, observably, and at scale. \n 1. Expose REST APIs as MCP servers with Azure API Management \n An MCP server exposes selected API operations to AI clients over JSON-RPC via HTTP or Server-Sent Events (SSE). These operations, referred to as “tools,” can be invoked by AI agents through natural language prompts. \n With this new capability, you can expose your existing REST APIs in Azure API Management as MCP servers—without rebuilding or rehosting them. \n Addressing common challenges \n Before this capability, customers faced several challenges when implementing MCP support: \n \n Duplicating development efforts: Building MCP servers from scratch often led to unnecessary work when existing REST APIs already provided much of the needed functionality. \n Security concerns:\n \n Server trust: Malicious servers could impersonate trusted ones. \n Credential management: Self-hosted MCP implementations often had to manage sensitive credentials like OAuth tokens. \n \n \n Registry and discovery: Without a centralized registry, discovering and managing MCP tools was manual and fragmented, making it hard to scale securely across teams. \n \n API Management now addresses these concerns by serving as a managed, policy-enforced hosting surface for MCP tools—offering centralized control, observability, and security. \n \n Benefits of using Azure API Management with MCP \n By exposing MCP servers through Azure API Management, customers gain: \n \n Centralized governance for API access, authentication, and usage policies \n Secure connectivity using OAuth 2.0 and subscription keys \n Granular control over which API operations are exposed to AI agents as tools \n Built-in observability through APIM’s monitoring and diagnostics features \n \n How it works \n \n MCP servers: In your API Management instance navigate to MCP servers \n Choose an API: + Create a new MCP Server and select the REST API you wish to expose. \n Configure the MCP Server: Select the API operations you want to expose as tools. These can be all or a subset of your API’s methods. \n Test and Integrate: Use tools like MCP Inspector or Visual Studio Code (in agent mode) to connect, test, and invoke the tools from your AI host. \n \n Getting started and availability \n This feature is now in public preview and being gradually rolled out to early access customers. To use the MCP server capability in Azure API Management: \n Prerequisites \n \n Your APIM instance must be on a SKUv1 tier: Premium, Standard, or Basic \n Your service must be enrolled in the AI Gateway early update group (activation may take up to 2 hours) \n Use the Azure Portal with feature flag: ➤ Append ?Microsoft_Azure_ApiManagement=mcp to your portal URL to access the MCP server configuration experience \n \n Note: Support for SKUv2 and broader availability will follow in upcoming updates. Full setup instructions and test guidance can be found via aka.ms/apimdocs/exportmcp. \n 2. Centralized MCP registry and discovery with Azure API Center \n As enterprises adopt MCP servers at scale, the need for a centralized, governed registry becomes critical. Azure API Center now provides this capability—serving as a single, enterprise-grade system of record for managing MCP endpoints. \n With API Center, teams can: \n \n Maintain a comprehensive inventory of MCP servers. \n Track version history, ownership, and metadata. \n Enforce governance policies across environments. \n Simplify compliance and reduce operational overhead. \n \n API Center also addresses enterprise-grade security by allowing administrators to define who can discover, access, and consume specific MCP servers—ensuring only authorized users can interact with sensitive tools. \n To support developer adoption, API Center includes: \n \n Semantic search and a modern discovery UI. \n Easy filtering based on capabilities, metadata, and usage context. \n Tight integration with Copilot Studio and GitHub Copilot, enabling developers to use MCP tools directly within their coding workflows. \n \n These capabilities reduce duplication, streamline workflows, and help teams securely scale MCP usage across the organization. \n \n Getting started \n This feature is now in preview and accessible to customers: \n \n https://aka.ms/apicenter/docs/mcp \n AI Gateway Lab | MCP Registry \n \n 3. What’s next \n These new previews are just the beginning. We're already working on: \n Azure API Management (APIM) \n \n Passthrough MCP server support We’re enabling APIM to act as a transparent proxy between your APIs and AI agents—no custom server logic needed. This will simplify onboarding and reduce operational overhead. \n \n Azure API Center (APIC) \n \n Deeper integration with Copilot Studio and VS Code Today, developers must perform manual steps to surface API Center data in Copilot workflows. We’re working to make this experience more visual and seamless, allowing developers to discover and consume MCP servers directly from familiar tools like VS Code and Copilot Studio. \n \n For questions or feedback, reach out to your Microsoft account team or visit: \n \n Azure API Management documentation \n Azure API Center documentation \n \n — The Azure API Management & API Center Teams ","body@stripHtml({\"removeProcessingText\":true,\"removeSpoilerMarkup\":true,\"removeTocMarkup\":true,\"truncateLength\":-1})@stringLength":"6525","kudosSumWeight":5,"repliesCount":6,"readOnly":false,"images":{"__typename":"AssociatedImageConnection","edges":[{"__typename":"AssociatedImageEdge","cursor":"MjUuM3wyLjF8b3wyNXxfTlZffDE","node":{"__ref":"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDE1MDEzLWRMSW03ZA?revision=12\"}"}},{"__typename":"AssociatedImageEdge","cursor":"MjUuM3wyLjF8b3wyNXxfTlZffDI","node":{"__ref":"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDE1MDEzLXA5WFNadA?revision=12\"}"}},{"__typename":"AssociatedImageEdge","cursor":"MjUuM3wyLjF8b3wyNXxfTlZffDM","node":{"__ref":"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDE1MDEzLXZWeFB2cA?revision=12\"}"}},{"__typename":"AssociatedImageEdge","cursor":"MjUuM3wyLjF8b3wyNXxfTlZffDQ","node":{"__ref":"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDE1MDEzLUJmbjNPWQ?revision=12\"}"}}],"totalCount":4,"pageInfo":{"__typename":"PageInfo","hasNextPage":false,"endCursor":null,"hasPreviousPage":false,"startCursor":null}},"videos":{"__typename":"VideoConnection","edges":[],"totalCount":0,"pageInfo":{"__typename":"PageInfo","hasNextPage":false,"endCursor":null,"hasPreviousPage":false,"startCursor":null}},"coverImage":{"__typename":"UploadedImage","url":"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDE1MDEzLWRMSW03ZA?revision=12"},"coverImageProperties":{"__typename":"CoverImageProperties","style":"STANDARD","titlePosition":"BOTTOM","altText":""}},"Conversation:conversation:4424484":{"__typename":"Conversation","id":"conversation:4424484","topic":{"__typename":"BlogTopicMessage","uid":4424484},"lastPostingActivityTime":"2025-06-16T16:52:08.513-07:00","solved":false},"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDI0NDg0LVVUY016Mw?revision=1\"}":{"__typename":"AssociatedImage","url":"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDI0NDg0LVVUY016Mw?revision=1","title":"CPU percentage of gateway metric.png","associationType":"COVER","width":1889,"height":1062,"altText":""},"BlogTopicMessage:message:4424484":{"__typename":"BlogTopicMessage","subject":"Autoscaling Now Available in Azure API Management v2 Tiers","conversation":{"__ref":"Conversation:conversation:4424484"},"id":"message:4424484","revisionNum":1,"uid":4424484,"depth":0,"board":{"__ref":"Blog:board:IntegrationsonAzureBlog"},"author":{"__ref":"User:user:154962"},"teaser@stripHtml({\"removeProcessingText\":true,\"truncateLength\":-1})":"","introduction":"We’re excited to share a major update to Azure API Management: the release of gateway-level metrics and native autoscaling in v2 tiers—Basic v2, Standard v2, and Premium v2.

Superior capacity, highest entity limits, unlimited included calls, and the most comprehensive set of features set the Premium apart from other API Management tiers. Customers rely on the Premium tier for running enterprise-wide API programs at scale, with high availability, and performance. \n The Premium v2 tier has a new architecture that eliminates management traffic from the customer VNet, making private networking much more secure and easier to setup. During the creation of a Premium v2 instance, you can choose between VNet injection or VNet integration (introduced in the Standard v2 tier) options. \n New and improved VNet injection \n Using VNet injection in Premium v2 no longer requires any network security groups rules, route tables, or service endpoints. Customers can secure their API workloads without impacting API Management dependencies, while Microsoft can secure the infrastructure without interfering with customer API workloads. In short, the new VNet injection implementation enables both parties to manage network security and configuration setting independently and without affecting each other. \n You can now configure your APIs with complete networking flexibility: force tunnel all outbound traffic on-premises, send all outbound traffic through an NVA, or add a WAF device to monitor all inbound traffic to your API Management Premium v2—all without constraints. \n \n Region availability \n The public preview of the Premium v2 tier is available only in 6 public regions (Australia East, East US2, Germany West Central, Korea Central, Norway East and UK South) and requires creating a new service instance. \n For pricing information and regional availability, please visit the API Management pricing page. \n Learn more \n \n API Management v2 tiers documentation \n API Management v2 tiers FAQ \n API Management overview documentation \n ","body@stripHtml({\"removeProcessingText\":true,\"removeSpoilerMarkup\":true,\"removeTocMarkup\":true,\"truncateLength\":-1})@stringLength":"1999","kudosSumWeight":3,"repliesCount":1,"readOnly":false,"images":{"__typename":"AssociatedImageConnection","edges":[{"__typename":"AssociatedImageEdge","cursor":"MjUuM3wyLjF8b3wyNXxfTlZffDE","node":{"__ref":"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDE1MzU5LWp5UENlZQ?revision=1\"}"}}],"totalCount":1,"pageInfo":{"__typename":"PageInfo","hasNextPage":false,"endCursor":null,"hasPreviousPage":false,"startCursor":null}},"videos":{"__typename":"VideoConnection","edges":[],"totalCount":0,"pageInfo":{"__typename":"PageInfo","hasNextPage":false,"endCursor":null,"hasPreviousPage":false,"startCursor":null}},"coverImage":null,"coverImageProperties":{"__typename":"CoverImageProperties","style":"STANDARD","titlePosition":"BOTTOM","altText":""}},"Conversation:conversation:4420139":{"__typename":"Conversation","id":"conversation:4420139","topic":{"__typename":"BlogTopicMessage","uid":4420139},"lastPostingActivityTime":"2025-06-03T07:32:22.909-07:00","solved":false},"User:user:1521101":{"__typename":"User","uid":1521101,"login":"beenamore","registrationData":{"__typename":"RegistrationData","status":null},"deleted":false,"avatar":{"__typename":"UserAvatar","url":"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/dS0xNTIxMTAxLTUwMzM5NGk0MEU3NDZEODAyM0IyNDUx"},"id":"user:1521101"},"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDIwMTM5LXVRdmFrQQ?revision=1\"}":{"__typename":"AssociatedImage","url":"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDIwMTM5LXVRdmFrQQ?revision=1","title":"Forrester TEI APIM.png","associationType":"COVER","width":1560,"height":877,"altText":""},"AssociatedImage:{\"url\":\"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDIwMTM5LVM3TVI2ZA?revision=1\"}":{"__typename":"AssociatedImage","url":"https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/s/gxcuf89792/images/bS00NDIwMTM5LVM3TVI2ZA?revision=1","title":"clipboard_image-1-1748960778387.png","associationType":"BODY","width":1600,"height":900,"altText":""},"BlogTopicMessage:message:4420139":{"__typename":"BlogTopicMessage","subject":"Forrester Study Finds 315% ROI with Azure API Management and a Path to AI Readiness","conversation":{"__ref":"Conversation:conversation:4420139"},"id":"message:4420139","revisionNum":1,"uid":4420139,"depth":0,"board":{"__ref":"Blog:board:IntegrationsonAzureBlog"},"author":{"__ref":"User:user:1521101"},"teaser@stripHtml({\"removeProcessingText\":true,\"truncateLength\":-1})":"","introduction":"","metrics":{"__typename":"MessageMetrics","views":436},"postTime":"2025-06-03T07:32:22.909-07:00","lastPublishTime":"2025-06-03T07:32:22.909-07:00","body@stripHtml({\"removeProcessingText\":true,\"removeSpoilerMarkup\":true,\"removeTocMarkup\":true,\"truncateLength\":-1})":" APIs are the engines of modern digital experiences, powering everything from mobile apps to AI copilots. As AI reshapes products, experiences and workflows, APIs have become essential infrastructure. But without the right management strategy, managing APIs at scale can introduce complexity, security risks, and inefficiencies. \n That’s where Azure API Management comes in. It’s a fully managed service that helps you publish, secure, monitor, and scale APIs across clouds, on-premises, and hybrid environments. With deep integration across the Microsoft ecosystem — including Azure OpenAI Service, GitHub Copilot, and Microsoft Defender for APIs — it delivers unmatched efficiency and value. \n Bottom line? A 315% ROI, according to a Forrester study. \n To quantify the business impact, in 2025 Microsoft commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study. The study evaluated the costs, benefits, and risks of adopting Azure API Management, based on interviews with decision-makers from seven organizations across financial services, manufacturing, financial technology, and consumer goods sectors. \n Forrester created a composite organization modeled after these interviews, a $1B global enterprise based in North America, and the results were compelling: 315% ROI over three years driven by faster time to market, reduced legacy costs, improved developer productivity, and preparation for AI and the future. \n From legacy bottlenecks to agile innovation \n Before adopting Azure API Management, the organizations faced common challenges: \n \n Complex, siloed systems \n High integration and maintenance costs \n Low API reuse and poor discoverability \n Inefficient development cycles \n Starting API programs with limited internal support \n Azure API Management helped them turn these challenges into opportunities. \n \n Key quantified benefits over three years \n Based on interviews and Forrester’s financial model, the composite organization experienced the following top benefits: \n \n \n \n 30% more efficient API development and 50% more efficient policy configuration \n Developers saved more than a week per API and an hour per policy, enabling them to reallocate time to higher-value tasks. Total value: $679,000 \n “[With our prior solution,] it took three to four weeks of development. With Azure API Management, it is one week of development. That is the difference.” \n Principal architect, manufacturing \n 5%+ improvement in API and policy reuse \n With Azure API Management and Azure API Center, the composite organization increases its reuse of APIs and API policies. It consolidates and tracks all the APIs it creates, which improves discovery and allows its developers to reuse APIs and API policies instead of creating new ones. Over three years, this translates to $352,000 for the composite organization. \n “Azure API Management is a good tool. It does what it is supposed to do well, and it works well with the Azure ecosystem. We are happy, and we are investing heavily to use it more.” \n Director of data platforms and services, financial technology \n 80% boost in API management and support productivity \n Compared to legacy systems, platform engineers recaptured over 12 hours per API per year, enabling a shift to more strategic work. Total value: $370,000 \n “Every hour saved with Azure API Management is a leverage for a new business case.” \n Senior engineering manager, financial services \n 50% faster time to market, accelerating operating profit \n Instead of taking three months to bring an API initiative to market, the composite organization does this twice as fast in 1.5 months with Azure API Management. Because the developers and IT professionals work more efficiently, the composite earns additional months of recurring revenue and achieves its API-related business goals more quickly. Over three years, this benefit is worth $1.5 million to the composite organization. \n $190K+ saved annually from retiring legacy infrastructure \n By adopting Azure API Management and modernizing, the composite organization progressively retires and consolidates legacy hardware and software. These yield cost savings it can reinvest in other initiatives. Over three years, this benefit is worth $568,000 to the composite organization. \n Strategic advantages beyond the numbers \n While the quantifiable results are impressive, customers also shared unquantified but critical benefits: \n \n Stronger security and governance across hybrid and multi-cloud environments \n Greater API resilience with less downtime and smoother experiences \n Improved developer experience and higher satisfaction across engineering teams \n AI lifecycle governance, with Azure API Management acting as a centralized AI gateway \n Seamless integration across the Microsoft ecosystem, boosting innovation and productivity \n \n Improved AI governance and visibility with a centralized gateway \n As generative AI becomes core to digital transformation, organizations must not only innovate quickly — they must govern AI usage with precision and responsibility. Interviewees emphasized how Azure API Management acted as a centralized AI gateway, helping them securely manage the rising complexity of AI-driven apps. \n With Azure API Management, they gained: \n \n Full visibility into generative AI usage across teams and apps \n Rate-limiting and throttling, preventing unexpected costs or misuse \n Centralized logging and monitoring for compliance and oversight \n Consistent performance and low latency for AI-powered user experiences \n \n \n “We have enforced rate-limiting in nonproduction environment. The rate limit helps us to control the usage pattern so that there is no excess usage with respect to APIs. Azure API Management provides visibility and traceability. That helps us to see the usage pattern and take proactive steps to communicate to the consumers [of AI].” — Cloud data architect, global consumer goods company \n Strengthened security posture and simplified compliance \n Modern digital infrastructure, especially with AI workloads, demands secure, reliable API exposure across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Organizations in the study reported that Azure API Management significantly improved their security posture and reduced operational risk. \n Key benefits included: \n \n A single secure gateway to all APIs, reducing attack surface \n Always-on protection with automated patching, threat detection, and identity integration \n Built-in integrations with Microsoft security offerings including Microsoft Sentinel, enabling seamless SIEM visibility and faster incident response \n \n \n “We created a single door to get to the APIs, It increased our security posture... [We are] twice as secure.” — Director of data platforms, financial technology firm \n “[The cybersecurity team] is very excited about Azure API Management and it’s rare to say [that team] is excited about a solution. … Microsoft is responsible for keeping security patched,.. and the logs going to our SIEM solution are more seamless….” — Senior engineering manager, financial services company \n These capabilities didn’t just make APIs safer. They also freed up time for engineering and security teams to focus on innovation instead of operational overhead. \n A platform built for the future \n Whether modernizing legacy infrastructure or launching a new API strategy, organizations used Azure API Management to leapfrog challenges and build intelligent, composable applications. The result? Faster time to value. Improved governance. Better developer experience. And a platform ready for the AI era. \n “The main value is flexibility. Azure API Management is a very scalable and resilient solution. It integrates well with the Azure ecosystem, and it supports all the modern paradigms.” — Director of Data Platforms, FinTech \n Ready to realize the impact? \n Whether you're modernizing legacy systems, building new digital experiences, or governing AI workloads, Azure API Management provides a trusted, enterprise-grade platform to support your strategy. \n See how Azure API Management
