Azure SDK Release (August 2026)

1 Share

Thank you for your interest in the new Azure SDKs! We release new features, improvements, and bug fixes every month. Subscribe to our Azure SDK Blog RSS Feed to get notified when a new release is available.

You can find links to packages, code, and docs on our Azure SDK Releases page.

To restore a complete release record, this roundup also includes 49 initial stable and beta releases that were publicly available from package registries in July but weren’t listed in the July post because several release-data updates hadn’t merged. Public package availability, rather than release-data pull request status, determines inclusion.

Release highlights

Document Translation 2.0.0

Document Translation added support for the 2026-03-01 service API, including translation of text embedded in images for batch and single-document requests, custom translation model deployments, and expanded image scan reporting. The Java and Python 2.0.0 releases include breaking changes, while the new JavaScript package replaces the REST-level client with modeled DocumentTranslationClient and SingleDocumentTranslationClient APIs.

Storage – Blobs 12.30.0-beta.1

Azure Storage preview releases across .NET, Java, JavaScript, Python, Go, and C++ added support for service version 2026-10-06. Blob libraries introduced Apache Arrow response support for listing operations, additional access-tier metadata, and responses that can include both MD5 and CRC64 hashes. File Share libraries added paged range-list APIs, and .NET Blob uploads now generate random block IDs to prevent collisions during concurrent uploads.

Azure AI Discovery 1.0.0

Azure AI Discovery reached its first stable release for Python and JavaScript. The libraries expose Workspace capabilities for conversations, investigations, tasks, and tools, plus Bookshelf knowledge-base lifecycle, indexing, and citation-aware search operations. The stable Python release also adds paged responses, storage mount protocol controls, and long-running cancellation while establishing a new compatibility baseline from the preview.

W3C opens 2026 community survey

1 Share

Following on the success of the surveys of the W3C community over the last few years, we are conducting the W3C 2026 Survey to get to know our community better, investigate needs, and understand how we can improve.

Further to the 2025 survey, we already implemented changes that W3C Members benefit from, such as quarterly onboarding calls and monthly newsletters, to name only a few.

This year's survey is being run through SurveyMonkey and should take about 8 minutes to complete. It is available to members as well as those who are part of the larger W3C community. Answers are anonymous.

The survey closes on 30 September 2026. We look forward to hearing from you!
