This document will walk you through where to go in Azure AI Foundry to get started with some of Microsoft's out-of-the-box AI services.
Step 1: Deploy an Azure AI Foundry resource and navigate to https://ai.azure.com. Make sure that your project is deployed in a region that supports AI services, such as East US.
Step 2: Ensure that you are in the correct directory and have your AI Foundry resource selected. This can be checked and changed in the top right of your browser window
Step 3: Select AI Services towards the top of the left pane
Step 4: Select one of the four services under the heading “Infuse your solutions with AI capabilities”
Step 5: This document will proceed with showing the Common object detection as an example of getting started with an AI Service, but these general steps can be followed to select and get started with any AI service. Select Vision + Document, and select “Common object detection” under the Image tab
Step 6: Select an Azure AI Service to connect (or create a new one if needed) and upload a file or select a provided example. At this point you should be able to continue trying out different files to test out the selected service
