Pull Request Overview

This PR fixes a TypeError caused by incorrectly awaiting a synchronous method call. The get_openai_client() method from AIProjectClient is synchronous, but was being called with await, causing a runtime error.

Key Changes:

• Removed await keyword from self.project_client.get_openai_client() call in the initialize_client() method

This also requires a minimum version of the aiprojectclient dependency, please update that as well

Got it. I have added the minimum version requirement to pyproject.toml.

release azure-ai-projects_2.0.0b2 describe this as a breking change.

get_openai_client() method on the asynchronous AIProjectClient is no longer an "async" method.
