AI Lens provides solutions for managing and governing the AI-enabled applications and agents in your organization.

This article provides a quick recipe for using the Ardoq Import Builder discovering Agents in Google’s enterprise agent environment - Vertex AI. You can use the same pattern for doing discovery in other Agent runtimes such as Microsoft Foundry and Amazon Bedrock.

You need to have authorization permission to access the list of Agents in your Vertex AI projects. These are referred to as reasoning-engines . Use the gcloud CLI utility to get the access token for your projects

Test your access works by either accessing the reasoning-engines API directly or using the gcloud utility

<apilocation>aiplatform.googleapis.com is your geo-location specific deployment for Vertex AI.

If your access is working then you can create the connection

In Ardoq, open up the Import Builder, go to the Connections tab and create a new connection. Next, configure the following setting for a basic set up:

The configuration should look like the following:

Create an integration connection, assign the above-created connection, and select the Agent list for the data mapping

Import Components and then assign to an existing workspace or create a new workspace for Agents

You can then review your imported agents and create the references from AI Agents Technical Capability to make them managed and governed in AI Lens
