Azure

Access machine learning models with Azure AI

Azure, a tool from Microsoft, provides out-of-the-box features to simplify app creation. One of these features is called Computer Vision, a powerful AI tool that explains what’s in an image. With the Describe image feature in Glide, you can have an image analyzed by Azure, and it will tell you what’s in the image.

Features

The Azure integration in Glide currently supports one feature: Describe image.

Describe image

The Describe image feature lets you send an image to Azure, and Azure will tell you what’s in the image. This can be added to a Component that supports Actions or added to a workflow in the Workflow Editor.

To set it up, you'll need to create a column to house the Image URL, and a second column to house the image description you generate with Azure.
