I am quite new to spacy and prodigy environment, so sorry if my question is off the mark.  
I wish to create a server using spacy where I can push text paragraphs/ strings and I can receive NER objects in json format.

Any guidance will be helpful.  
Thanks

Hi! This question is a bit outside of the scope of this forum, but I'd recommend checking out FastAPI! I just had a quick look online and found this example code (written by the FastAPI author, who also happens to be on our team 😅). It does pretty much exactly what you're looking for:
