NLU CI/CD with NLUClean Azure Pipelines task

For CI/CD, you often want to import, test, and then delete an NLU model. To delete the NLU model you set up for testing in a CI environment:

- task: NLUClean@0
  inputs:
    service: luis

See the endpoint configuration documentation for LUIS and Lex for more information on required and optional pipeline variables to set for the NLUClean task.

Inputs to consider when using the NLUClean task:

• service
• includePath
• workingDirectory
• nupkgPath
• toolVersion
• toolPath

Inputs

includePath

(Optional) Path to custom NLU provider DLL. See documentation about Specifying the include path for more details.

workingDirectory
