- What is Exam AI-200?
- AI-200 is Microsoft's exam titled Developing AI Cloud Solutions on Azure. Passing it earns the Microsoft Certified: Azure AI Cloud Developer Associate certification. Microsoft's retirement table lists it as the replacement certification for AZ-204, the Azure Developer Associate, which retires on July 31, 2026.
- Does AI-200 cover Azure OpenAI, prompt engineering or AI agents?
- No. Microsoft's AI-200 skills outline contains no Azure OpenAI, no Azure AI Foundry, no Copilot Studio, no Azure AI Search, no content safety, no prompt engineering and no agents. Those belong to AI-103. AI-200 is a backend developer exam: containers, vector-enabled databases, messaging and observability.
- What are the AI-200 domain weights?
- Four domains. Develop AI solutions by using Azure data management services is the largest at 25 to 30 percent. Develop containerized solutions on Azure, connect to and consume Azure services, and secure, monitor and troubleshoot Azure solutions are each 20 to 25 percent.
- How long is the AI-200 exam and how many questions?
- Microsoft's certification page states you have 120 minutes to complete the assessment, which is 20 minutes more than AZ-204 allowed. Microsoft does not publish a question count for AI-200. Its general guidance is that most exams contain 40 to 60 questions and that the number can vary.
- How much does the AI-200 exam cost?
- $165 USD in the United States, the standard price for Microsoft role-based associate exams. Price varies by the country or region in which the exam is proctored, and tax may be added.
- Is there an official AI-200 practice assessment?
- No. Microsoft states that the practice assessment for this exam is not currently available, and that practice assessments are usually available within 8 weeks of an exam leaving beta and becoming generally available. There is no official AI-200 question bank yet.
- Do I need AZ-204 before AI-200?
- No, and you cannot get it anyway after July 31, 2026, when AZ-204 retires. Microsoft lists no formal prerequisite for AI-200. It recommends proficiency with Azure SDKs, Azure data management services, messaging and eventing, vector databases, Python, and containerized applications on Azure.
- What score do you need to pass AI-200?
- 700 or greater on a scale of 1 to 1000. Microsoft explicitly notes that because this is a scaled score, it may not equal 70 percent of the points. Microsoft publishes no pass rate for AI-200 or for any of its exams, so treat any pass-rate figure you see as invented.
