APIErrorException: (BadArgument) 'recognitionModel' is incompatible :AZURE COGNITIVE FACE

Question

I'm creating an attendance system using AZURE COGNITIVE FACE API. I am storing the attendance in an excel sheet. But there occurs an error " 'recognitionModel' is incompatible." From the documentation I have come to know that there are two recognition models(recognition_01 , recognition_02). Is it required to mention the type? If so how to do it in python?

ERROR:

  File "identify.py", line 58, in <module>
    res = face_client.face.identify(faceIds, global_var.personGroupId)
  File "C:\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages\azure\cognitiveservices\vision\face\operations\_face_operations.py", line 313, in identify
    raise models.APIErrorException(self._deserialize, response)

@Sajeetharan I tried both models but still getting the same error — Arun Soorya, Feb 23 '20 at 09:26

As mentioned in the services documentation portal (for example here for West Europe but is the same for all regions) for Identify operation:

The 'recognitionModel' associated with the query faces' faceIds should be the same as the 'recognitionModel' used by the target person group or large person group.

So it looks like you have a mismatch here. You don't have to pass the recognitionModel in the Identify operation but in the Detect operation that you are doing first.

And you must ensure that this value is the same as the one used for your personGroup where you want to identify the person (see personGroup create operation, containing the recognition variable)

Yeah I found out that there is a mismatch. Thanks for the info — Arun Soorya, Feb 27 '20 at 02:44
