Azure/azure-sdk-for-net Azure.AI.ContentUnderstanding

1.0.0 (2026-02-11)

GA release of Azure AI Content Understanding client library for .NET
Each ContentField subclass now exposes a strongly-typed Value property (e.g., ContentStringField.Value returns string?, ContentNumberField.Value returns double?)
Added ContentSource hierarchy (DocumentSource, AudioVisualSource) for strongly-typed parsing of grounding source strings on ContentField
Added ContentRange value type with static factory methods (Page, Pages, TimeRange, etc.) for specifying content ranges on AnalysisInput
Added convenience methods and indexers on ContentArrayField and ContentObjectField
Added support for clientRequestId parameter in Analyze and AnalyzeBinary operations
Updated to service API version 2025-11-01

The following API changes were made from the preview SDK (1.0.0-beta.1) to the GA SDK to align with Azure SDK for .NET design guidelines:

Type renames: AnalyzeInput → AnalysisInput, AnalyzeResult → AnalysisResult, MediaContent → AnalysisContent, DateField → ContentDateTimeOffsetField, and all field subtypes prefixed with Content (e.g., StringField → ContentStringField)
Property renames: AnalysisInput.Url → Uri, ContentAnalyzer.DynamicFieldSchema → HasDynamicFieldSchema, ContentAnalyzerConfig.ReturnDetails → ShouldReturnDetails, ContentAnalyzerConfig.OmitContent → ShouldOmitContent
Field value properties: All ContentField subclasses use a unified Value property instead of type-specific properties (ValueString, ValueNumber, etc.)
Method signatures: Analyze/AnalyzeAsync inputs parameter is now required; AnalyzeBinary/AnalyzeBinaryAsync parameter order changed
