How to Implement Entity Sentiment Analysis using Python

Entity sentiment analysis now runs through an LLM: the script below sends the text to Eden AI’s OpenAI-compatible endpoint, https://api.edenai.run/v3/chat/completions, and asks for JSON that lists each entity with its sentiment.



import json
import requests

headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer <your_api_key>"}

url = "https://api.edenai.run/v3/chat/completions"
json_payload = {
"model": "openai/gpt-4o-mini",
"messages": [
{"role": "system", "content": "Extract the named entities from the text and give the sentiment expressed towards each one."},
{"role": "user", "content": "Apple is doing great, but Microsoft had issues."},
],
# Ask for JSON that follows this schema
"response_format": {
"type": "json_schema",
"json_schema": {
"name": "entity_sentiment",
"strict": True,
"schema": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"items": {
"type": "array",
"items": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"text": {"type": "string"},
"sentiment": {"type": "string", "enum": ["positive", "negative", "neutral"]},
},
"required": ["text", "sentiment"],
"additionalProperties": False,
},
}
},
"required": ["items"],
"additionalProperties": False,
},
},
},
}

response = requests.post(url, json=json_payload, headers=headers)
print(json.loads(response.json()["choices"][0]["message"]["content"]))
