Retirement of Azure AI Image Analysis 4.0 Preview APIs

On March 31, 2025, the Azure AI Image Analysis 4.0 Preview APIs will be retired. This retirement affects several features, including:

  • Model customization
  • Background removal
  • Product recognition
  • Custom Image Classification and Custom Object Detection

To ensure continuity, users are advised to migrate their workloads to the Image Analysis 4.0 GA API, which offers enhanced features like multimodal embedding, synchronous OCR, people detection, image tagging, smart cropping, caption, dense caption, and image object detection[1][4][5].

Impact and Migration Recommendations

Impact on Features:

  • Product Recognition and Custom Features: These will no longer be available in the preview APIs and have been removed from the Azure Studio experience as of January 10, 2025[1].
  • COCO File Compatibility: Users relying on COCO files for training data in product recognition will need to adapt to the Custom Vision service, as it does not support COCO files directly[3].

Migration to Custom Vision: Users dependent on retiring features are encouraged to transition to Azure AI Custom Vision, which is generally available. Custom Vision provides similar functionality to the retiring preview features[1][2].

Additional Information

For more detailed information on this retirement and migration process, users can refer to the official Microsoft Azure updates page: https://azure.microsoft.com/updates?id=475779[5]. The transition to the GA API is recommended to leverage the latest improvements and avoid service disruptions[4][5].
