Azure spatial anchors - Hololens - Not working - azure

I am using azure spatial anchors samples in my unity project for Hololens 2. I have successfully able to deploy the sample project build to my hololens but when i try to create the anchors it does not do anything, i also have entered the keys.
I dont see any details of anchors created in the admin panel of azure spatial anchors.
Any help would be appreciated.

We have recently polished the documentation page on how to run the sample.
We have also completely revamped the tutorial on implementing your own ASA sample.
Please let us know if you still have any issues running the sample by going to the appropriate link on the support page

Azure cognitive document translation UI recommendations

Hoping someone can help or push me in the right direction with a requirement a client has requested.
My client works in a secure restricted environment where external translation services are blocked or prohibited.
Currently using a paid Azure translator cognitive services subscription with S1 plan of blob storage. I have created 'source' and 'target' containers, generated SAS keys and followed a online tutorial with a basic C# code. If I upload a document to be translated via Azure storage explorer into the 'source' container, run the C# code via VS code this will translate the document and place into the 'target' container which can be downloaded.
My question is what is the easiest and fastest way to make this user friendly?
I am not a developer although do have a basic grasp on API and a little python but developing something like this is far beyond my skillsets.
Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly apricated.
Thanks in advance!

has an application that performs all the necessary document translation tasks. Provided as source and as compiled binary.
Command line for Windows, Linux, MacOS

Not getting access to Windows SpatialPerception for Immersive VR

I am developing in Unity for the new HP Reverb building on UWP. I would like to use Azure Spatial Anchors to share those anchors between computers.
Since the HP Reverb is an InsideOut tracked Headset, the Spatial Anchors are working fine, but I am not getting access to the SpatialAnchorExporter. Using the Azure Example Project for connecting to the cloud from Unity gives me an Access denied to spatial anchor exporter. error.
In "Capabilities" I have SpatialPerception ENABLED, I checked it in Unity AND in VS2019.
Specifically the following lines which tell me that I have no access:
Windows.Perception.Spatial.SpatialPerceptionAccessStatus accessStatus =
await Windows.Perception.Spatial.SpatialAnchorExporter.RequestAccessAsync();
Trying to do the same thing without Azure gives me more or less the same error, UnityEngine.XR.WSA.Sharing.WorldAnchorTransferBatch.ExportAsync() returns:
SpatialAnchorTransferManager denied access to WorldAnchor serialization
UnityEngine.XR.WSA.Sharing.WorldAnchorTransferBatch:ExportAsync_Internal(WorldAnchorTransferBatch,
SerializationDataAvailableDelegate, SerializationCompleteDelegate)
UnityEngine.XR.WSA.Sharing.WorldAnchorTransferBatch:ExportAsync(WorldAnchorTransferBatch,
SerializationDataAvailableDelegate, SerializationCompleteDelegate)
For the HP Reverb usage scenario raised on saving spatial anchors, this is not available. This WorldAnchorTransferBatch API is exposed for HoloLens at this point solely.
That said, Microsoft has provided specific support and guidance for LBE(Location based entertainment) usage. Specifically, we have documented the ability to importing and exporting of the map. Microsoft has also provided tools to export the configurations to multiple immersive headset devices. See LBE-MULTI-PLAYER SETUP

HoloLens holographic app

When you use the "Holographic DirectX 11 App" template in Visual Studio, it creates an app that occupies the entire HoloLens view (I believe it's call the Holographic View).
How do you build a Holographic App like the Hologram demos where you can re-size the box and place the app in the Holographic Shell?
BTW, can someone with a higher reputation create a new tag "hololens-directx". I think there are beginning to be more DirectX development and this would help distinguish from the Unity questions.
Short Answer: Not Yet
Microsoft is reserving development right such as this as well as live tiles. Of the many forum posts regarding this, an official Microsoft team has formally responded to this one below.
To understand more options available to you in your app development, see this page about the app model.
The ability to place holograms into the Holographic Shell is not exposed to app developers.
Hologram app is an inbox app and third party apps cannot replicate this functionality.
App developers can only place GLTF model into Shell as a link to their app.

Azure Training Kit Merry-go-round

I signed up for Azure 30 day trial but found the on site training videos completely lacking in usefulness.
I contacted support and they sent me a new link for the Azure Training Kit.
The installation seemed to execute without any errors, but left me at a web site with a button to sign up for Azure again.
Any attempt to sign up again fails because I have already signed up.
Does anybody know how I can actually get to the start of the Training Kit and not just a web site telling me just how great it is and what I will find in it?
Windows Azure Training Kit is usually installed on your computer in C:\WATK folder. You will see HOL folder in there which contains lots of hands on labs to get started. I would recommend starting from there or you could look at presentations to get familiar with various aspects of Windows Azure.
