Hi Jose, In your code private TextAnalyticsResponse GetSentiment(string text) has written inside the "main()"method. Its not valid. If you really need a fuction inside the main() method create an anonymous function by using deliates. Or Make the function to be outside of the main function. If it helps mark as answer. Thank you.

Hi Jose, Please do below changes You have to write GetSentiment() out of void Main method. static void Main( string [] args) { Console.WriteLine($ "Starting sentiment analysis from: {Text}" ); // Get Sentiment var sentimentResponse = GetSentiment(Text); Console.WriteLine($ "Detected sentiment score: {sentimentResponse.Documents.FirstOrDefault().Score}" ); var sentiment = sentimentResponse.Documents.FirstOrDefault().Score > 0.5 ? "Positive" : "Negative" ; Console.WriteLine($ "Detected sentiment: { sentiment }" ); Console.WriteLine($ "Ending sentiment analysis" ); } private static TextAnalyticsResponse GetSentiment( string text) { var body = JsonConvert.SerializeObject( new { Documents = new object [] { new { Text = text, Id = Guid.NewGuid() } } }); using (var content = new ByteArrayContent(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(body))) { var responseMessage = Client.PostAsync($ "{ApiUri}" , content).Result; responseMessage.EnsureSuccessStatusCode(); var json = responseMessage.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result; return DeserializeTextAnalyticsResponse(json); } }
