# Azure AI Immersive Reader Skill This skill provides expert guidance for Azure AI Immersive Reader. Covers best practices, limits & quotas, security, configuration, and integrations & coding patterns. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities. ## How to Use This Skill > **IMPORTANT for Agent**: Use the **Category Index** below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g., `L35-L120`), use `read_file` with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g., `[security.md](security.md)`), use `read_file` on the linked reference file > **IMPORTANT for Agent**: If `metadata.generated_at` is more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. If `mcp_microsoftdocs` tools are not available, suggest the user install it: [Installation Guide](https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/mcp/blob/main/README.md) This skill requires **network access** to fetch documentation content: - **Preferred**: Use `mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill`. Returns Markdown. - **Fallback**: Use `fetch_webpage` with query string `from=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown`. Returns Markdown. ## Category Index | Category | Lines | Description | |----------|-------|-------------| | Best Practices | L33-L37 | Guidance on improving Immersive Reader performance by caching authentication tokens, including token reuse patterns and reducing auth overhead. | | Limits & Quotas | L38-L42 | Supported languages and feature availability for Immersive Reader (e.g., which languages work with read-aloud, translation, and other capabilities). | | Security | L43-L49 | Configuring Immersive Reader security: creating the resource with Entra auth, managing Entra role assignments, and setting cookie policy and user consent. | | Configuration | L50-L56 | Configuring Immersive Reader behavior: read-aloud voice/speed, translation languages and behavior, and storing/managing per-user reading and language preferences. | | Integrations & Coding Patterns | L57-L66 | Implementing Immersive Reader in web/iOS apps: launch flows, JS SDK usage, HTML/MathML prep, custom buttons, multi-resource setups, and Vision Read integration. | ### Best Practices | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Cache Immersive Reader auth tokens for performance | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to-cache-token | ### Limits & Quotas | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Check supported languages for Immersive Reader features | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/language-support | ### Security | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Create Immersive Reader resource and configure Entra auth | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to-create-immersive-reader | | Configure Immersive Reader cookie policy and consent | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to/set-cookie-policy | | Update Immersive Reader Entra role assignments for security | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/security-how-to-update-role-assignment | ### Configuration | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Configure Immersive Reader Read Aloud options | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to-configure-read-aloud | | Configure translation settings in Immersive Reader | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to-configure-translation | | Store and manage Immersive Reader user preferences | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to-store-user-preferences | ### Integrations & Coding Patterns | Topic | URL | |-------|-----| | Customize the Immersive Reader launch button | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to-customize-launch-button | | Launch Azure Immersive Reader from application code | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to-launch-immersive-reader | | Use multiple Immersive Reader resources in one app | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to-multiple-resources | | Prepare HTML content for Immersive Reader integration | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to-prepare-html | | Render MathML expressions in Immersive Reader | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/how-to/display-math | | Use the Immersive Reader JavaScript SDK API | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/reference | | Build iOS app integrating Vision Read and Immersive Reader | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/ai-services/immersive-reader/tutorial-ios-picture-immersive-reader |
