Azure AI Agents Persistent SDK for Java

Low-level SDK for creating and managing persistent AI agents with threads, messages, runs, and tools.

Authentication

String endpoint = System.getenv("PROJECT_ENDPOINT");
PersistentAgentsClient client = new PersistentAgentsClientBuilder()
    .endpoint(endpoint)
    .credential(new DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder().build())
    .buildClient();
String modelDeploymentName = System.getenv("MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME");

ThreadsClient threads = client.getThreadsClient();
MessagesClient messageClient = client.getMessagesClient();
RunsClient runs = client.getRunsClient();

Key Concepts

The Azure AI Agents Persistent SDK provides a low-level API for managing persistent agents that can be reused across sessions.

Client Hierarchy

| Client | Purpose |

|--------|---------|

| PersistentAgentsClient | Sync client for agent operations |

| PersistentAgentsAsyncClient | Async client for agent operations |

Core Workflow

1. Create Agent

// Create agent with tools
PersistentAgent agent = administration.createAgent(
    new CreateAgentOptions(modelDeploymentName)
        .setName("Math Tutor")
        .setInstructions("You are a personal math tutor.")
);

2. Create Thread

PersistentAgentThread thread = threads.createThread();

3. Add Message

messageClient.createMessage(
    thread.getId(),
    MessageRole.USER,
    "I need help with equations."
);

4. Run Agent

ThreadRun run = runs.createRun(new CreateRunOptions(thread.getId(), agent.getId()));

// Bound polling; a terminal non-success state is not a completed answer.
long deadline = System.nanoTime() + java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit.SECONDS.toNanos(60);
while (run.getStatus() == RunStatus.QUEUED || run.getStatus() == RunStatus.IN_PROGRESS) {
    if (System.nanoTime() > deadline) {
        throw new IllegalStateException("Run polling timed out; inspect/cancel the owned run separately");
    }
    Thread.sleep(500);
    run = runs.getRun(thread.getId(), run.getId());
}

Check the resulting status before reading a final response: requires_action needs an authorized tool-output handler; failed, cancelled, expired or other non-success states must be reported explicitly. A polling timeout does not cancel the cloud run.

5. Get Response

PagedIterable<ThreadMessage> messages = messageClient.listMessages(thread.getId());
for (ThreadMessage message : messages) {
    System.out.println("Message role: " + message.getRole()); // Do not log retained prompt/response payloads.
}

6. Cleanup

threads.deleteThread(thread.getId());
administration.deleteAgent(agent.getId());

Best Practices

1. Use DefaultAzureCredential for production authentication

2. Poll with appropriate delays — 500ms recommended between status checks

3. Clean up resources — Delete threads and agents when done

4. Handle all run statuses — Check for RequiresAction, Failed, Cancelled

5. Use async client for better throughput in high-concurrency scenarios

Error Handling

import com.azure.core.exception.HttpResponseException;

try {
    PersistentAgent exampleAgent = administration.createAgent(
        new CreateAgentOptions(modelDeploymentName).setName("Example").setInstructions("Answer briefly"));
} catch (HttpResponseException e) {
    System.err.println("Error: " + e.getResponse().getStatusCode() + " - " + e.getMessage());
}

When to Use

Use when implementing or maintaining Java persistent-agent threads, messages, runs and administration with the preview SDK. The reviewed example uses beta.2 subclients, not direct CRUD methods on PersistentAgentsClient.

Limitations

• Operations create billable cloud resources, send prompts and retain thread data. Use an authorized project/model and explicit budgets; delete only resources created for the current run, preserve IDs on failure, and redact message/credential logs.
• Snippets are sequential fragments inside application code, not a standalone compiled program. API shape was checked against [Microsoft’s beta.2 sample](https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-java/blob/azure-ai-agents-persistent_1.0.0-beta.2/sdk/ai/azure-ai-agents-persistent/src/samples/java/com/azure/ai/agents/persistent/AgentBasicSample.java) and preview reference; no cloud run was performed. Add compatible azure-identity and required dependencies using the project’s reviewed Azure BOM.
• Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
• Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
