This looks to me like you are using TS syntax inside a JS file?

Try removing the :AnalyzeBatchAction[] part here:

const actions: AnalyzeBatchAction[] = [
{
kind: "CustomEntityRecognition",
deploymentName: "ner-deploy",
projectName = "product-ner",
},
];

to make it:

const actions = [
{
kind: "CustomEntityRecognition",
deploymentName: "ner-deploy",
projectName = "product-ner",
},
];

Hi @xirzec,

This seemed to fix the issue, thanks, not sure where I got the typescript from.

I'm now having issues with TextAnalysisClient, as below. const client = new TextAnalysisClient("https://custom-ner.cognitiveservices.azure.com/", new AzureKeyCredential("<redacted>")); ^

TypeError: TextAnalysisClient is not a constructor

Any chance you could assist?

@jackUTS Above it looked like you were using @azure/ai-text-analytics which has a TextAnalyticsClient: https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/tree/main/sdk/textanalytics/ai-text-analytics

But now it seems like you are trying to use the newer TextAnalysisClient from @azure/ai-language-text? https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-js/blob/b16bb8e2b97e4602257c6639bd8aad2d80cbb3f1/sdk/cognitivelanguage/ai-language-text/README.md

So maybe check you are importing from the correct package?

Also if that credential is real, you should rotate it immediately. :)

@jackUTS Could you please use @azure/ai-language-text@1.0.0? Here is a sample for custom entity recognition. Please note that @azure/ai-text-analytics@6.0.0-beta.1 is a beta library that we're planning to deprecate.
