Hello @51155945

Thank you for reaching out.

Based on the information provided, it's difficult to determine the exact cause of the compatibility issue between Codex and Azure OpenAI when invoking automation_update. The thread does not include details about the error message, SDK version, API version, or request configuration being used.

Could you please share the following details?

The complete error message or stack trace.
Whether you are using the Responses API or Chat Completions API.
The Azure OpenAI model and API version being used.
Your Codex configuration and the specific scenario where automation_update fails.
A minimal reproducible example (with sensitive information removed).

Additionally, please confirm whether you are using the officially documented Azure OpenAI Codex configuration and supported API endpoints.

With these details, the community can better identify whether this is a configuration issue, an unsupported feature scenario, or a service limitation.

Thankyou!

Hello 51155945,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A and thank you for posting your questions here.

I understand that you are having issue with Azure OpenAI and Codex automation compatibility.

There is currently no public Microsoft-documented ETA for when the automation_update compatibility issue will be fully fixed. If you have raised any support case via your Azure Portal is required to obtain authoritative root-cause tracking and any private mitigation available for the affected Azure OpenAI deployment. If no, you have to.

You can use the below resource links for more reading, notification about update and setup steps:

Azure OpenAI Codex setup: https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/foundry/openai/how-to/codex
Azure OpenAI Responses API: https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/foundry/openai/how-to/responses
Azure OpenAI REST API reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/foundry/openai/reference
Azure OpenAI function calling: https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/foundry/openai/how-to/function-calling
Azure OpenAI structured outputs and schema limitations: https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/foundry/openai/how-to/structured-outputs

However, kindly use the officially documented Azure OpenAI Codex configuration with /openai/v1 and wire_api = "responses" and avoid Codex Automations or any prompt/action that creates, updates, or schedules automations until the compatibility issue is fixed for now.

I hope this is helpful. Please! Do not hesitate to let me know if you have any other questions, steps or clarifications.
