Next Plus MES supports integration with external AI foundation models running on your own Azure infrastructure. We currently work with GPT-4o and GPT-4.1, both of which are available in Azure OpenAI.

To enable the connection, please provide your Next Plus account executive with the following details from your Azure deployment:

  • Deployment Endpoint – The URL of your deployed Azure OpenAI model

  • API Key – A valid access key with permissions to call the model

  • API Version – The specific API version used for your deployment

⚠️ License Requirement
This capability is available only with the Next Plus Enterprise AI License. Please make sure your organization holds this license before proceeding.


Finding the Values in Azure

In your Azure portal, you can locate these parameters under your Azure OpenAI resource:

  1. Go to your Azure OpenAI resource.

  2. Navigate to Keys and Endpoint (for the API key and endpoint).

  3. Check the API version in your deployment configuration.
