Microsoft facial recognition, who is able to make it work?

I am trying to add the microsoft face unsuccessfully
I have created this on Azure Cloud but there is an endpoint in the configuration on Azure which was never used…
I have added in the yaml file but I am getting error after I restart HA.

microsoft_face:
  api_key: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
  azure_region: eastus

Logger: homeassistant.setup
Source: setup.py:162

Error 403 microsoft face api https://eastus.api.cognitive.microsoft.com/face/v1.0/persongroups

I’m having the same issue - did you get anywhere with this? Thanks!

Unfortunately no. I stopped this since there was not enough information. My guess is Microsoft changed something and home assistant cannot connect successfully.

The issue is that this file needs to be modified in order to accept the hostname of the endpoint.
I’m no Python dev so am not keen on just jumping in myself to do it.

Guys, is this still working. It’s been two years with the same errors. If not please remove the integration.
