AzureAISearchTool: Filter should not be defined at the agent level

[arnabbiswas1]

For Azure AI Search Tool, filter is defined at the agent level. As per the documentation, filter applies to all queries the agent makes to the index. As a result, if an application has multiple filters, it needs to maintain multiple agents. New filters would require newer agent instances (This could be a maintenance nightmare since each agent can have multiple version).

Azure AI Search tool is being considered as one of the alternatives to On-Your-Data. But, there, filter string can be generated dynamically and can be passed as a string while making chat.completions.create calls.

hey @arnabbiswas1 we have rolled out the change to pass tool configuration for each response. Then you can have on-you-data similar capability to pass AI Search tool "filters" for each response/at run time

@lindazqli Thanks a lot for the quick response!

Could you please point me to some documentation or provide some sample code, so that I can try this functionality? Do you mean that as a value for tools of openai_client.responses.create, we can pass all these configurations?

I checked the existing Python doc and was not able to locate the latest changes.

[I have just upgraded to azure-ai-projects==2.0.0. Thanks a lot for the release!]
