Custom action setup
Setting up a Custom Action takes you to the Action editor, where you can write your code and configure the execution environment by specifying the necessary libraries and dependencies required for your action. Each execution of the action will be processed in an isolated container in the SuperAnnotate cloud.
You can access your custom actions via the Actions tab located in the top-left corner, in Orchestrate.
Create an action
You can create a custom action using one of the following methods: start from scratch, use a template or import from GitHub.
- In the Actions tab, click + New Action.
- Choose a creation method:
- Create from scratch: Click New action and build it from the ground up.
- Use a template: Select a predefined template to get you started.
- Import from GitHub: Provide the GitHub URL to import an existing action. You may also import our templates this way.
- Make any necessary edits or changes in the Action Editor as required. More information on how to write your code using the handler function can be found here.
- Click Save to initiate the action creation process. This will trigger the environment build, which may take some time. During the build process, you can continue to modify your code. Refer to the Action editor page for details on how to update the action.
Editing your action
While the environment is being built, you can edit the action’s code, name, and description. From the list of custom actions, click on the action you want to edit, and follow the steps below according to what you want to change.
To change the action’s code:
- Make your changes accordingly in the action’s code editor.
- You can Discard changes to revert the code back to the original state.
- Click Save.
- This will only save the changes you’ve made in the code editor.
To change the name and description:
- Go to the Settings tab in the left panel.
- Click on the Edit button on the name and/or description to make your changes.
- Click Save.
To edit your environment configurations (this can’t be done while the build is in progress):
