- [Instructor] Azure AI Search doesn't have a studio like other Azure AI technologies, but you can explore its capabilities through the Azure portal. Here is how. In the Azure portal, search for AI search. Click create. Fill in the resource group, service name, location and pricing tier. Click review plus create, then click create. Once the resource is ready, navigate to it and let's create an index. Upload your data by clicking import data. We'll use the hotel sample dataset. Now let's add cognitive skills to enrich our data. Attach an Azure AI services resource to unlock AI features. Under add enrichments, select extract key phrases, store them under the key phrases field name, and choose description as a source data field. Let's also translate the description to French, and store it in the translated text field. So basically we are adding insights into an existing data source. We're adding extract key phrases, and we are also translating text. Now let's customize the index. You can enable or disable field attributes like retrievable, which are fields returned in query responses, filterable, which are fields accepting filter expressions, and sortable, which are fields accepting order expressions. We'll use the defaults for this example. Next, create an indexer to automate index creation. While scheduling updates is usually an option, it's disabled for sample data. Once the index is built, you can track its progress under the indexer tab. To view your index, let's go to the indexes tab. You'll see that the description now includes a French translation, and key phrases were extracted. This enriched data is AI generated. Now let's try a more detailed search. For example, let's try searching for New York Hotel, which should return hotels with a New York address. You'll also see New York in the key phrases. To refine your search, Let's switch over to the JSON view, and search for gaming in the key Phrases column. You'll find two records with gaming in their key phrases. So by following these steps, you can efficiently use Azure AI search to enrich your data, and unlock valuable insights with powerful search capabilities.
