 ## Set Up Recommended Content (via Microsoft Azure AI Personalizer)
 
+Azure AI Personalizer has been retired by Microsoft as of September 2023. The service will continue to work until 2026 but Personalizer resources can no longer be created. As such, consider this provider deprecated and we will be removing this in the near future. We are hoping to replace with a new provider to maintain the same functionality.

 Note that [Personalizer](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-services/personalizer/) requires sufficient data volume to enable Personalizer to learn. In general, we recommend a minimum of ~1,000 events per day to ensure Personalizer learns effectively. If Personalizer doesn't receive sufficient data, the service takes longer to determine the best actions.
