how to start an azure cognitive services language service for sentiment analysis using a powershell script

Question

I would like to be able to start and stop Azure cognitive services from powershell instead of going through the portal. I'm particularly interested in Azure AI Language so that I can build a conversational interfaces, summarizes documents, and analyzes text. Once the Azure AI Language service is running, I plan to write a Python app on my local machine to interact with it through the API. Can someone please show how to start an azure cognitive services language service for sentiment analysis using a powershell script? Thanks

I don't think it has an option to directly start/stop using powershell. Instead, you can manage the resource by create, update, or delete it using powershell.

Please see Azure Cognitive Services cmdlets for list of avilable commands.

Also, note that Azure Cognitive Services once created, are always running. You can delete them by using Remove cmdlets.

Once your Azure AI Language service is up and running, you can use it for sentiment analysis by making API calls from your Python application.

Incase if you haven't checked earlier, see Quickstart: Sentiment analysis and opinion mining for more information.
