 # How to use entity linking

-> Entity Linking is retiring from Azure AI Language effective **September 1, 2028**. Following this date, support for the Entity Linking service is discontinued. During this support window, we recommend that users migrate existing workloads and direct all new projects to Azure AI Language [**Named Entity Recognition**](../named-entity-recognition/overview.md) or consider other alternative solutions.

+The entity linking feature enables the detection and clarification of the specific identity of entities mentioned within text. For instance, it can determine whether the term "Mars" refers to the planet or to the Roman god of war. This capability helps eliminate ambiguity by associating each entity with the correct context. It returns the entities in the text with links to [Wikipedia](https://www.wikipedia.org/) as a knowledge base.

 ### Specify the entity linking model
 
-By default, entity linking will use the latest available AI model on your text. You can also configure your API requests to use a specific [model version](../../concepts/model-lifecycle.md).

 ### Input languages
 
-When you submit documents to be processed by entity linking, you can specify which of [the supported languages](../language-support.md) they're written in. if you don't specify a language, entity linking will default to English. Due to [multilingual and emoji support](../../concepts/multilingual-emoji-support.md), the response may contain text offsets.

 ## Submitting data
 
-Entity linking produces a higher-quality result when you give it smaller amounts of text to work on. This is opposite from some features, like key phrase extraction which performs better on larger blocks of text. To get the best results from both operations, consider restructuring the inputs accordingly.

 Entity linking is one of the features offered by [Azure AI Language](../overview.md), a collection of machine learning and AI algorithms in the cloud for developing intelligent applications that involve written language. Entity linking identifies and disambiguates the identity of entities found in text. For example, in the sentence "*We went to Seattle last week.*", the word "*Seattle*" would be identified, with a link to more information on Wikipedia.
