Azure OpenAI Embedder

Generate embeddings from an Azure OpenAI model deployment.

AzureOpenAIEmbedder defaults to text-embedding-3-small with 1536 dimensions. The deployment must serve the model selected by id.

from agno.knowledge.embedder.azure_openai import AzureOpenAIEmbedder

print(embedding[:5])
print(len(embedding))
