Upcoming change to Agent Registry APIs

Starting May 2026, the Agent Registry APIs in Microsoft Graph will be replaced by newer Agent Registry APIs powered by Microsoft Agent 365. This change consolidates agent management experiences to make it easier to observe, govern, and secure all agents in your tenant. We recommend that you plan to migrate to the new Agent 365-based APIs when they are released. Learn more about Agent Registry convergence with Microsoft Agent 365.

Remove an agentInstance object from an agentCollection.
