Microsoft Foundry Routines reach general availability for scheduled and event-driven agents
Original titleFrom Chatbots to Automated Agents: Routines in Microsoft Foundry Are Now Generally Available
Microsoft announced general availability of Routines in Foundry Agent Service, a managed way to run agents on a timer, on a recurring schedule, or in response to GitHub issue events and new Microsoft Teams channel messages.
Routines keep the trigger, agent action, identity, connections, and run history in the Foundry project, and each routine can run under the creator's identity or the agent's own Microsoft Entra ID identity.
A preview reminder tool lets a Hosted Agent schedule itself to resume later on the same conversation.
The post explains how scheduled, event-based, and self-reminding agent runs are managed in one place, along with the creator versus agent identity choice for unattended tasks.
