Azure App Service introduces built-in MCP to expose existing APIs as AI-consumable tools.

“At this build event, we're introducing a new capability with inside Azure App Service called built-in MCP.”

At Build, Microsoft announced built-in MCP support in Azure App Service, letting developers expose existing and new APIs as AI-consumable tools, alongside GitHub Copilot app modernization tooling and the previously launched managed instance feature.
