Does Azure AI studio endpoint deployment reflect changes made in Index?

Question

Hello,

I have quick question regards Azure AI studio endpoint and its association with index.

Currently, I have a index built using Azure AI Search.

I also have endpoint deployed in Azure AI studio by deploying a prompt flow. This endpoint uses the index to generate the answer.

The question is: Will making update to the index affect endpoint's reply? For example, does deleting/adding new document inside the index will make it so that the reply that is generated by the endpoint reflect the deletion/creation of new knowledge inside the index? Or will I have to deploy new endpoint for it to take effect?

Thanks.

Hello Junheok Cheon,

Thanks for Reaching the Microsoft Q&A Forum.

When you update the index in Azure AI Search by adding or deleting documents, those changes will be reflected in the endpoint's responses immediately. The Azure AI Search service supports real-time updates, so you don't need to redeploy the endpoint for these changes to take effect. The endpoint will automatically use the updated index data when processing queries. This means that any new information or removed documents will be considered, allowing the endpoint to generate responses based on the most current state of the index without needing a new deployment.

Thank you!
