Text Analytics API (v3.2-preview.2)
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 for tasks such as sentiment analysis, key phrase extraction and language detection. Functionality for analysis of text specific to the healthcare domain and personal information are also available in the API. Further documentation can be found in https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/text-analytics/overview
Detect Language
The API returns the detected language and a numeric score between 0 and 1. Scores close to 1 indicate 100% certainty that the identified language is true. See the Supported languages in Text Analytics API for the list of enabled languages.

Request parameters
(optional)
string
(Optional) This value indicates which model will be used for scoring. If a model-version is not specified, the API should default to the latest, non-preview version.
(optional)
boolean
(Optional) if set to true, response will contain request and document level statistics.
(optional)
boolean
(Optional) If set to true, you opt-out of having your text input logged for troubleshooting. By default, Text Analytics logs your input text for 48 hours, solely to allow for troubleshooting issues in providing you with the Text Analytics natural language processing functions. Setting this parameter to true, disables input logging and may limit our ability to remediate issues that occur. Please see Cognitive Services Compliance and Privacy notes at https://aka.ms/cs-compliance for additional details, and Microsoft Responsible AI principles at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/ai/responsible-ai.
