The Microsoft Foundry budget and cost management feature provides an agent-centric budgeting and monitoring layer on top of Azure subscriptions, enabling you to distinguish AI agent costs from overall Azure spending and control them independently.
- To access the Microsoft Foundry budget page and manage the budgets, users need to have the Manage Microsoft Foundry budgets permission assigned in User management > Permissions.
- To manage subscription budgets and relevant agent budgets, make sure the Cense Microsoft Foundry app has been added to the subscription in Azure portal and has the required roles assigned. For more details, refer to Assign Required Roles to AvePoint Cense Foundry App.
Click Microsoft Foundry budget in the left navigation to go to the Microsoft Foundry budget page, where manageable subscriptions are grouped and listed by tenant.
In this module, you can:
-
Define subscription's yearly budgets - The subscription budget acts as the primary budget boundary.
-
Set up agent monthly budget - Once the subscription budget is configured, you can set a monthly budget for each agent within the subscription.
After the budgets are configured, you can go to Microsoft Foundry report to track the detailed budget usage.
