I only activated the Azure OpenAI service in Azure on my tenat and do not know how to do this update.

You might have received an email incase if you have used the previous versions of API in your code earlier.

If you are currently using a preview API version to take advantage of the latest features, we recommend consulting the API version lifecycle article to track how long your current API version will be supported.

To update your code to use the latest Azure OpenAI Service preview API, you need to modify the API version in your code to "2024-02-15-preview". version.

Below is a sample piece of code how you can modify the version in your API.

Azure OpenAI API version 2024-03-01-preview is currently the latest preview release.

2024-03-01-preview has all the same functionality as 2024-02-15-preview and adds two new parameters for embeddings. Please see What's new in Azure OpenAI Service for more details.

AFAIK, this is general update for APIs. This needs to be updated in your code manually. For example, if you are working with Chat Completion API, you need to specify the version manually.

I would suggest you check Working with the GPT-3.5-Turbo and GPT-4 models and Azure OpenAI Service REST API reference for more details.

Do let me know if that helps or have any other queries.
