Azure Realtime API URL is generated wrong based on a endpoint

[eavanvalkenburg]

Confirm this is an issue with the Python library and not an underlying OpenAI API

• This is an issue with the Python library

Describe the bug

The AzureOpenAI client generates the wrong URL for the realtime websocket connection when creating the client with a azure_endpoint and azure_deployment:

• it generates: wss://<azure_endpoint without https://>/openai/deployments/<azure_deployment)/realtime?model=<model_param>&api-version=2024-10-01-preview&deployment=<model_param>
• it should generate: wss://<azure_endpoint without https://>/openai/realtime?model=<model_param>&api-version=2024-10-01-preview&deployment=<azure_deployment>

When not passing azure_deployment to the client it does work!

To Reproduce

1. Create a AzureOpenAI client with endpoint and deployment
2. Connect to realtime api

Hi @eavanvalkenburg,

I’ve set up a PR (#2123) that addresses this issue. The PR updates both the synchronous and asynchronous realtime configuration methods to ensure the correct azure_deployment is used in the URL. I also added a check to raise an error if azure_deployment isn’t provided, preventing any misconfigurations.

All tests have been run and passed successfully, so everything looks good from my end. Feel free to take a look at the PR and let me know if you have any questions or further feedback.

Thanks!
