Once we are done with training, it is time to publish the service. We can do so by clicking Publish in the top menu. Doing so will present us with a basic HTTP request that we can try, as shown in the following screenshot:

In the preceding screenshot, we can see the endpoint to use, the required application ID, the subscription key, and a sample question in the request body. All those parameters are required to get a successful response.

A successful call to the service will provide us with a JSON response as follows:

{ "Answer": "Sample response", "Score": "0" }

If we have an application that uses this, we can decide not to use the answer if the score has fallen below a certain threshold.

Typically, we would be using bots of different kinds to use this service. We can, for example, add this to a Skype bot or Slackbot, or simply integrate it with a chatbot on a customer support site.
