    Hi Michael Varga,

    Azure OpenAI applies content filtering by default for safety and compliance. You cannot fully turn it off without Microsoft approval. Post Approval, You can set severity threshold to lowest. Attached Advanced content filtering form for reference. Please note that you need to be a managed customer for this. (Please contact sales team to become managed customer )
