To use this integration, you will need a Cognitive Service resource in the Azure portal. You will get an endpoint and a key for authenticating your applications. To make a connection, provide the Account key, site URL and select Create connection. For operation costs on your connection, learn more here.

You're now ready to start using this integration.

Known issues and limitations

Please note that operation results may be incomplete due to underlying Cognitive Service Api nature, which is based on machine learning and pattern recognition.

Connecting with Microsoft Entra ID

To create connections with Microsoft Entra ID, you must add the Cognitive Services User role to your account to access. To use this connection, you must input the unique subdomain associated wih your Cognitive Services resource into the supporting operations.

Operations not supported with Microsoft Entra ID authentication

When using Microsoft Entra ID authentication only V3 actions are supported. Deprecated actions will continue to work with Access Key authentication, but will fail if used with an Microsoft Entra ID connection.
