Hi Cooling, Steve,
Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.
Currently, there’s no definitive release date for the PgRouting extension on PostgreSQL16 within Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server. Microsoft has indicated that it’s a priority, but an exact timeline remains unspecified. This extension is available for earlier versions, and discussions on PostgreSQL forums indicate that users are experiencing delays similar to past releases, such as those for PostgreSQL 13 and 14, when the extension had to be manually configured under server parameters.
Keep an eye on the Azure PostgreSQL release notes for the latest updates, as they may announce the availability there once it is fully supported.
