Text Analytics API (v3.1-preview.3)

The Text Analytics API is a suite of natural language processing (NLP) services built with best-in-class Microsoft machine learning algorithms. The API can be used to analyze unstructured text using NLP tasks such as sentiment analysis, named entity recognition (NER) of general and personally identifiable information domains, key phrase extraction (KPE) and language detection. It can also be used to batch NER and KPE operations asynchronously to process documents with a single request. Furthermore, this API provides an asynchronous operation for analyzing unstructured clinical and biomedical text using NER, entity linking, relation extraction and entity negation tasks. More documentation can be found in https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/text-analytics/overview

Get analysis status and results

Get the status of an analysis job. A job may consist of one or more tasks. Once all tasks are completed, the job will transition to the completed state and results will be available for each task.

Select the testing console in the region where you created your resource:

East US 2 Central US North Europe West Europe West US 2

Request URL

Request parameters

string

Format - uuid. Job ID

(optional)
boolean

(Optional) if set to true, response will contain request and document level statistics.

(optional)
integer

(Optional) Set the maximum number of results per task. When both $top and $skip are specified, $skip is applied first.

(optional)
integer

(Optional) Set the number of elements to offset in the response. When both $top and $skip are specified, $skip is applied first.
