Upgrade api to higher version

Question

Hi , currently I have deployed my deepseek and grok models in the azure ai services. So the URL for it is -

https://<name>.api.cognitive.microsoft.com/models/chat/completions?api-version=2024-05-01-preview

As evident the api version is - 2024-05-01-preview, but I want to upgrade to - 2024-08-01-preview or later, how can I do that?

I am using the global standard type of deployment and the version is 1 (the model version).

hi mansi ))

first off thanks for dropping this question here its super clear what u need to do and u're already on the right track with azure ai services, really...

when u wanna upgrade ur api version from 2024 05 01 preview to something newer like 2024 08 01 preview its actually way simpler than u might think )) u dont need to redeploy ur models or mess with the deployment type ) all u gotta do is update the api version parameter in the url u're using to call the service :))

just swap out 2024 05 01 preview with 2024 08 01 preview in the url and u're good to go 8)) microsoft makes this super easy cause they keep the endpoints the same across versions )) u can check the docs here for more deets on available versions )) azure ai services api versions

one thing to keep in mind tho, newer api versions sometimes add features or tweak how things work, so if ur code relies on specific behavior from the older version u might wanna test the new version first but since u're using global standard deployment u should be fine )

also if u run into any weirdness after switching versions the azure portal has great tools to help u debug )) just head over to the monitoring section and check the logs

hope this helps,let me know

Alex
