Microsoft Cognitive Services for Developers: 4 Search

Add intelligent search to your apps. Understand how to use the Microsoft Cognitive Services search APIs to tap into billions of webpages, images, videos, and news results.

Microsoft Cognitive Services opens up artificial intelligence to every developer. Search is a core pillar of Cognitive Services, allowing your application to tap into an ad-free, internet-scale search engine—Microsoft Bing—with access to billions of webpages, images, videos, and news results. This course shows how to use the search APIs in Cognitive Services to execute simple text-based, image, and video searches. Plus, explore the Bing Autosuggest API, which allows you to submit a query and return a list of suggested terms that other users have entered, and Bing Custom Search, which restricts search results to the domains, sites, and webpages that you choose.
