Thanks for the useful article, LibertyMunson​  👍

You mention that AZ-802 should be going GA during August 2026. As we are now right at the end of the month, is there any kind of update? I'm keen to book in my exam as soon as it exits beta 😀

Thank you!

    At time of writing, I have spotted this is now out of beta and at least in the UK now bookable! 🤩🎆
