Hello,

I'm currently developing a product for my company that uses Azure ChatGPT with an Assistant API through Python scripts. It is almost mandatory for us to use system role messages, since using only user role messages to give instructions impacts significantly the quality of the responses.

In this link it is possible to read that "The role of the entity that is creating the message. Currently only user is supported." (in the last table of the section "Create message"):

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/openai/assistants-reference-messages?view=azure-node-preview&tabs=python

I cannot find anywhere any indication of release dates for having also system messages in the API, and this affects the business case and the lifecycle of the product we are developing.

Is it possible to get an expected date for it?

Thanks,

Tiago Rodrigues
