Logic Apps as tool for Agents in Foundry

Logic Apps now powers the tool layer for AI Agents in Foundry Agent Service —bringing together the strengths of business process automation and intelligent reasoning.

AI agents need more than powerful models to be effective—they need the ability to act and the context to act appropriately. Tools play a critical role in this: they don’t just let agents perform actions—they provide the inputs, signals, and structure that anchor the agent’s reasoning and guide consistent behavior. Well-designed tools help ensure that agents make decisions based on reliable, real-world data and aligned business rules.

With over 1400+ connectors, Logic Apps lets agents tap into real-world enterprise systems—such as reading records from a SQL database, retrieving order data from an ERP system like SAP, managing support tickets in ServiceNow, or triggering actions in CRM platforms like Dynamics or Salesforce. This integration transforms agents from passive responders into intelligent actors that can take meaningful, context-aware action across your organization.

Requirements for using Logic Apps as Tools

To use a Logic App as a tool within the AI Agent Service, your workflow must meet the following criteria:

• Consumption SKU: Currently, only Logic Apps in Consumption plan are supported.
• Request Trigger: The workflow must begin with a Request trigger so that it can be invoked by the agent via a REST call.
• Tool Description: Each workflow should include a clear, concise description to help the agent understand its purpose and appropriate usage.

Getting Started with Logic Apps in AI Foundry

There are two ways to bring Logic Apps into your agents’ toolset. You can find step by step instructions in the docs here. To summarize,

1. Use prebuilt Microsoft authored templates

Select from a library of curated Logic Apps templates designed for agent scenarios. After selecting a template:

• Configure the tool’s name and description
• Authenticate any services used in the workflow
• Set required parameters

Once configured, the workflow will be deployed to your selected subscription and resource group, ready to be used by your agent.

2. Import existing workflows

If you already have Logic Apps powering key operations in your business, you can import them directly:

• Go to the Your Actions tab
• Select your existing workflow
• Provide a name and description for agent usage

This makes it easy to extend your existing APIs and business logic to AI agents—no need to start from scratch.

Tool Calling Demo

In this demo video we build an AI Agent that can respond to any questions about GitHub issues and send an email report about them. The opportunities to unlock scenarios are endless and we can’t wait to hear from you.

Logic Apps as a trigger for Agents in Foundry

We’re excited to launch the AI Agent Service connector in Logic Apps—making it easier than ever to bring autonomy to your business processes. With this connector, you can now use any Logic Apps trigger—from HTTP requests to Service Bus messages, file drops, or scheduled events—to kick off a workflow that invokes an AI agent. This means your agents can now respond to real-world events in near real time, making decisions and taking actions based on dynamic context. Whether it’s processing a new order, reviewing a document, or triaging support tickets, Logic Apps + AI Agent Service gives you the power to build truly autonomous, intelligent workflows.
