Quickstart: Custom sentiment analysis (preview)
[NOTE] Custom sentiment analysis (preview) will be retired on 10 January 2025, please transition to other custom model training services, such as custom text classification in Azure AI Language, by that date. From now to 10 January 2025, you can continue to use custom sentiment analysis (preview) in your existing projects without disruption. You can’t create new projects. On 10 January 2025 – workloads running on custom sentiment analysis (preview) will be deleted and associated project data will be lost.
Use this article to get started with creating a Custom sentiment analysis project where you can train custom models for detecting the sentiment of text. A model is artificial intelligence software that's trained to do a certain task. For this system, the models classify text, and are trained by learning from tagged data.
Prerequisites
- Azure subscription - Create one for free.
Create a new Azure Language resource and Azure storage account
Before you can use Custom sentiment analysis, you'll need to create an Azure Language resource, which will give you the credentials that you need to create a project and start training a model. You'll also need an Azure storage account, where you can upload your dataset that will be used to build your model.
Important
To quickly get started, we recommend creating a new Azure Language resource using the steps provided in this article. Using the steps in this article will let you create the Language resource and storage account at the same time, which is easier than doing it later.
Create a new resource from the Azure portal
Go to the Azure portal to create a new Azure AI Language resource.
In the window that appears, select this service from the custom features. Select Continue to create your resource at the bottom of the screen.
Create a Language resource with following details.
Name Description Subscription Your Azure subscription. Resource group A resource group that will contain your resource. You can use an existing one, or create a new one. Region The region for your Language resource. For example, "West US 2". Name A name for your resource. Pricing tier The pricing tier for your Language resource. You can use the Free (F0) tier to try the service. Note
If you get a message saying "your login account is not an owner of the selected storage account's resource group", your account needs to have an owner role assigned on the resource group before you can create a Language resource. Contact your Azure subscription owner for assistance.
In this service's section, select an existing storage account or select New storage account. These values are to help you get started, and not necessarily the storage account values you’ll want to use in production environments. To avoid latency during building your project connect to storage accounts in the same region as your Language resource.
Storage account value Recommended value Storage account name Any name Storage account type Standard LRS Make sure the Responsible AI Notice is checked. Select Review + create at the bottom of the page, then select Create.
Upload sample data to blob container
After you have created an Azure storage account and connected it to your Language resource, you will need to upload the documents from the sample dataset to the root directory of your container. These documents will later be used to train your model.
Start by downloading the sample dataset for Custom sentiment analysis projects. Open the .zip file, and extract the folder containing the documents. The provided sample dataset contains documents, each of which is a short example of a customer review.
Locate the files to upload to your storage account
In the Azure portal, navigate to the storage account you created, and select it.
In your storage account, select Containers from the left menu, located below Data storage. On the screen that appears, select + Container. Give the container the name example-data and leave the default Public access level.
After your container has been created, select it. Then select Upload button to select the
.txtand.jsonfiles you downloaded earlier.
Create a Custom sentiment analysis project
Once your resource and storage container are configured, create a new Custom sentiment analysis project. A project is a work area for building your custom ML models based on your data. Your project can only be accessed by you and others who have access to the Language resource being used.
Sign into the Language Studio. A window will appear to let you select your subscription and Language resource. Select the Language resource you created in the above step.
Select the feature you want to use in Language Studio.
Select Create new project from the top menu in your projects page. Creating a project lets you label data, train, evaluate, improve, and deploy your models.
Enter the project information, including a name, description, and the language of the files in your project. If you're using the example dataset, select English. You can't change the name of your project later. Select Next
Tip
Your dataset doesn't have to be entirely in the same language. You can have multiple documents, each with different supported languages. If your dataset contains documents of different languages or if you expect text from different languages during runtime, select enable multi-lingual dataset option when you enter the basic information for your project. This option can be enabled later from the Project settings page.
After you select Create new project, a window will appear to let you connect your storage account. If you've already connected a storage account, you will see the storage accounted connected. If not, choose your storage account from the dropdown that appears and select Connect storage account; this will set the required roles for your storage account. This step will possibly return an error if you are not assigned as owner on the storage account.
Note
- You only need to do this step once for each new resource you use.
- This process is irreversible, if you connect a storage account to your Language resource you cannot disconnect it later.
- You can only connect your Language resource to one storage account.
Select the container where you have uploaded your dataset.
If you have already labeled data make sure it follows the supported format and select Yes, my files are already labeled and I have formatted JSON labels file and select the labels file from the drop-down menu. Select Next. If you are using the dataset from the QuickStart, there is no need to review the formatting of the JSON labels file.
Review the data you entered and select Create Project.
Train your model
Typically after you create a project, you start labeling the documents you have in the container connected to your project. For this quickstart, you have imported a sample labeled dataset and initialized your project with the sample JSON labels file.
To start training your model from within the Language Studio:
Select Training jobs from the left side menu.
Select Start a training job from the top menu.
Select Train a new model and type in the model name in the text box. You can also overwrite an existing model by selecting this option and choosing the model you want to overwrite from the dropdown menu. Overwriting a trained model is irreversible, but it won't affect your deployed models until you deploy the new model.
By default, the system will split your labeled data between the training and testing sets, according to specified percentages. If you have documents in your testing set, you can manually split the training and testing data.
Select the Train button.
If you select the Training Job ID from the list, a side pane will appear where you can check the Training progress, Job status, and other details for this job.
Note
- Only successfully completed training jobs will generate models.
- Training can take some time between a couple of minutes and several hours based on the size of your labeled data.
- You can only have one training job running at a time. You can't start other training job within the same project until the running job is completed.
Deploy your model
Generally after training a model you would review its evaluation details and make improvements if necessary. In this quickstart, you will just deploy your model, and make it available for you to try in Language Studio, or you can call the prediction API.
To deploy your model from within the Language Studio:
Select Deploying a model from the left side menu.
Select Add deployment to start a new deployment job.
Select Create new deployment to create a new deployment and assign a trained model from the dropdown below. You can also Overwrite an existing deployment by selecting this option and select the trained model you want to assign to it from the dropdown below.
Note
Overwriting an existing deployment doesn't require changes to your prediction API call but the results you get will be based on the newly assigned model.
Select Deploy to start the deployment job.
After deployment is successful, an expiration date will appear next to it. Deployment expiration is when your deployed model will be unavailable to be used for prediction, which typically happens twelve months after a training configuration expires.
Test your model
After your model is deployed, you can start using it to classify your text via Prediction API. For this quickstart, you will use the Language Studio to submit the Custom sentiment analysis task and visualize the results. In the sample dataset you downloaded earlier you can find some test documents that you can use in this step.
To test your deployed models from within the Language Studio:
Select Testing deployments from the left side menu.
Select the deployment you want to test. You can only test models that are assigned to deployments.
For multilingual projects, from the language dropdown, select the language of the text you are testing.
Select the deployment you want to query/test from the dropdown.
You can enter the text you want to submit to the request or upload a
.txtfile to use.Select Run the test from the top menu.
In the Result tab, you can see the extracted entities from your text and their types. You can also view the JSON response under the JSON tab.
Clean up projects
When you don't need your project anymore, you can delete your project using Language Studio. Select the feature you're using in the top, and then select the project you want to delete. Select Delete from the top menu to delete the project.

Get your key and endpoint
Next you will need the key and endpoint from the resource to connect your application to the API. You'll paste your key and endpoint into the code later in the quickstart.
After the Language resource deploys successfully, click the Go to Resource button under Next Steps.
On the screen for your resource, select Keys and endpoint on the left navigation menu. You will use one of your keys and your endpoint in the steps below.
Create a Custom sentiment analysis project
Once your resource and storage container are configured, create a new Custom sentiment analysis project. A project is a work area for building your custom ML models based on your data. Your project can only be accessed by you and others who have access to the Language resource being used.
