Alchemy Language #11

Closed rexhu100 closed 7 years ago

rexhu100 commented 7 years ago

The Alchemy Language API is no longer available in Bluemix. Its functionalities are primarily replaced by Natural Language Understanding. Any plan to update your package to work with the new API?

ricardo-rei commented 7 years ago

I'm trying to use a few of the Alchemy Language API functions. If I understood ir right, those functions are no longe working as these APIs have been replaced for some other IBM services, right? this last comment is from july 10 (more then 2 months ago). but still valid. any idea when will thew cognizeR with Natural Language Understanding and other IBM watson services? (like Discovery)

IBM just renamed the Alchemy services to Natural Language Understanding. I just ran through the install, and ran sentiment (with my own API_KEY) and it worked fine.

Just discovered that you may not be able to get an API for Alchemy. If you don't have a Alchemy API already, I am sorry but you wont be able to use the package until it is updated to Natural Language Understanding. If you do have a Alchemy API, it will be good until March 7, 2018.

exactly my problem. I can have credentials for the available today watson services (which are mainly with a username and password format). I don't have de credentials needed for the Alchemy cognizeR functions (API_KEY,...). any idea when will the package be updated? thanks

petegordon commented 7 years ago

Understood. Sorry, don't have a time for update yet. Other than hopefully before March 2018.
