A resource groups is what is used to group and administrate customer resources in Azure. The two Ayfie components Ayfie Personal Assistant Storage and Ayfie Personal Assistant Application could be placed in one resource group together with other non-Ayfie resources, or in a resource group just by themselves, or split across two different resource groups. Further, these resource groups could be given any name one see fit. However, it is recommended that each of them are given a dedicated resource group and that they are not mixed with other resources. It is also recommended naming the resource groups rg-ayfie-pa-storage and rg-ayfie-pa-application. Using these exact named resource groupings groups will simplify later upgrades to newer versions of Ayfie Personal Assistant as well as any future interactions with Ayfie support.

If in doubt, one should consult Private Plan or Public Offering? on how to find out what one has. Most of the steps are the same for the two alternatives. The difference is in step 2 and 5 below (indicated with bold font) and with green markings in the screenshot below where one follow the red arrows all the way for the public offering and swap to green for the private plan.

Go to the Microsoft Azure Portal at https://portal.azure.com
In the search box enter Marketplace and select it from the search results
If you have a private plan select Private plans in in the left side menu (circled in green), otherwise use the search box to look up the “Ayfie Personal Assistant” applications
Select the Ayfie Personal Assistant Application box
If you have a private plan, select the plan from the dropdown (see green arrow below), otherwise select the number of users you want to license (red arrow). Then click the Create button.
...
Select the subscription from the dropdown (Ayfie Development in the example above).
Create a new resource group (recommended) or select an existing one. The recommended name for the group is rg-ayfie-pa-application.
Select the region. Normally one would select the same region as earlier selected for the storage component, but if this is done as part of an upgrade one may have to select another region if one as part of the upgrade is changing to a new language model that is not available in the same region.
Select the storage resource group from earlier (that is rg-ayfie-pa-storage if one created it using the recommend recommended name)
Give the managed application a name, for instance the recommended name AyfiePersonalAssistant as in the example above.

The “Application Settings” tab has the following optional settings which allows you to:
Custom Domain - Enable and set Custom Domain (instead of a generated URL)
Data Retention Policy- Enable and set Data Retention Policy (if not enabled we will keep all documents for as long the application is installed)
Model Configuration - Change the default AI-model for new Chat-sessions
These settings are not possible to change post deployment. That would require one to uninstall and install as explained in chapter “Upgrading to a Newer Version of Ayfie Personal Assistant”
...
Custom Domain (red box)
When deploying Ayfie Personal Assistant one is always given an URL which users can use to access the frontend. This URL will adhere to the format: https://chat-ui.random-part.region-name.azurecontainerapps.io.
...
Check the “Configure custom domain”
Check the “Verify if you have access to DNS record for you domain”
Add the custom domain, e.g. “pa.my-domain.com” to the input field
Click the white Next or the blue Review + create button. This will take one to the Review + create page.
Data Retention Policy (green box)
If one want to reduce the storage cost, be compliant with internal policies for data storage or if one want to avoid a potential long list of files in the user interface of Personal Assistant, one can enable Data Retention Policy. This can be set to an integer between 7 and 100. This feature will then remove all files permanently from Personal Assistant if the file is older and haven’t been used in any chat for the past number of days specified.
Check the “Enable data retention policy”
Enter the number of days before files are deleted due to inactivity
Model Configuration (blue box)
By default, the best supported models for your selected region will be enabled and visible for all users. However, one can chose to change the default model that will be used when users initiate a new chat. By default it’s the “Economy”-model that is set as default, which may be changed to either “Standard” or “Premium”.
The Review + Create Tab
Review the summary of one’s choices from the previous two tabs and go back and correct anything found to be wrong.
Click the Create button at the bottom of the page when ready to deploy Ayfie Personal Assistant
