Azure API Deployment Error - Resource Does Not Exist

Question

Hello everyone, I've encountered an issue after attempting to deploy an API on Azure. I'm presented with the following error message when trying to access the resource:

The API deployment for this resource does not exist. If you created the deployment within the last 5 minutes, please wait a moment and try again.

It's been well over a few minutes since I initiated the deployment, and I've double-checked both my resource configuration and deployment process without any luck in resolving the issue. Everything appears to be correctly set up in the Azure portal as far as I can see. Could anyone suggest possible causes for this error and steps I might take to resolve it?

• The deployment is showing as completed in the portal.
• I have verified the resource group and service settings, and all seems to be in order. Are there any logs or settings I should be checking? Or could this be a transient issue with Azure? Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

@YutongTie-MSFT I had an issue deploying an API on Azure OpenAI service, specifically with GPT-4.5 Turbo model. The error was about the API deployment not existing. This has now been resolved; it was a confusion over using the correct 'Deployment Names' in Azure.

@Wataru Abe Thanks for your confirming and sharing the solution, if that is possible, could you please share more details so that I can reach out to content team for detailed document? How do you think we should update the document to clarify 'Deployment Names' more? Thanks a lot for reaching out to us again. Regards, Yutong

I had to upgrade to Azure.AI.OpenAI version 1.0.0-beta.17. I was using 1.0.0-beta.5 which had DeploymentName optional and a couple more differences. The documentation I found in the official page was already updated to 1.0.0-beta.17 version so I decided to update the reference and it worked.

Hi, I have had the same issue while connecting with Azure Open Ai, but i was entering the gpt model name instead of deployment name in the azure configuration. So, try doing that.
