Hi B,

If you mean a Web App project, then yes, the Computer Vision SDK can be used.

You can start by adding the Nuget package Microsoft.Azure.CognitiveServices.Vision.ComputerVision. Once you have this reference you can use the SDK in your web app.

Thanks for your answer.

I added the package and I wrote code, with key and endpoint of my subscription, but at the line

var textHeaders = await client.ReadAsync(imageUrl);

website crashes.

I don't understand why. No error, it's just stopped.

P.S. imageurl is the microsoft example: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Azure-Samples/cognitive-services-sample-data-files/master/ComputerVision/Images/printed_text.jpg

That's a very separate issue. Please raise another question and mark this one as the answer if it answered the question.
