Hello I m strugling to understand the pricing of Azure Face Detect

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/cognitive-services/face-api/

Face Detect is priced $1 per 1000 transaction but it doesn't say if each attributes is counted as a transaction?

so what will be the cost of face detect call that is like that:

returnFaceId = true

returnFaceLandmarks = true

returnFaceAttributes = age, gender, smile, facialHair, glasses, emotion, hair, makeup, occlusion, accessories, blur, exposure , noise

is it counted as 1 transaction? or 1 + 1 + 13 = 15 transactions?

As it states under the FAQ:

What constitutes a transaction for Face API?

[..snip..]

For all other operations, each API call will be counted as a transaction.

This means that, if you're able to make one call returning all these attributes, it counts as one transaction.
