New Azure OpenAI integration

Azure OpenAI is now integrated with STEP, enabling organizations to stay current with AI technology which opens countless possibilities. With this integration, a start-up package has been created that provides examples of how this integration could be used to optimize business processes, such as the creation of generative AI-powered product descriptions, or the ability to utilize automated translations. The starter package is intended to be used as a catalyst to help customers curate the Azure OpenAI integration to their specific needs. This integration enables organizations to work more efficiently, broaden their delivery base, and improve market responsiveness.

The use of Azure OpenAI integration requires customers to independently obtain an API key through Azure. Additionally, Azure OpenAI functionality must be enabled for your system. Contact your account manager or partner manager to begin this process.

For more information on Azure OpenAI, refer to the Azure OpenAI Integration topic in the Artificial Intelligence documentation.

New Azure Vision integration

It is now possible to use Azure Vision integration to extract detailed information from images, including keywords, captions, and text identification. Users are able to utilize this image metadata to optimize search engine results, identify similar products based on linked images, enrich product descriptions and attributions based on image content, and provide richer product information to customers.

The use of Azure Vision integration requires customers to independently obtain an API key through Azure. Additionally, Azure Vision functionality must be enabled for your system. Contact your account manager or partner manager to begin this process.
