Request items
Request items
To request items, click Request tasks in Data.
Only Annotators and QAs can request items. They'll be automatically assigned up to the number of items that's set in Task Request Settings in Settings. The minimum number is 1 and the maximum number is 50.
If the items have priority values and the Annotator requests tasks, they’ll receive the items sorted by priority value instead of by item name.
Received item status
- Annotators receive items with the following statuses: Not started, In progress, and Returned.
- QAs receive items with the Quality Check status.
Item receiving order
Annotators and QAs receive requested items in one of the following orders:
| Condition | Item receiving order |
|---|---|
| If there's a folder | Annotators and QAs will first receive items from the folder, then they'll receive the Items from the project’s root (if available) in ascending alphabetical order. |
| If there are multiple folders | Annotators and QAs will first receive items from the folders, then they'll receive the items from the project’s root (if available) in ascending alphabetical order. |
| If there is no folder | Annotators and QAs will receive items from the project’s root in ascending alphabetical order. |
| If the Annotator or QA has folders assigned to them | The Annotator or QA will first receive the items from the assigned folders, then they'll receive items from the other folders and the project’s root. |
| If the number of items available in the first folder is smaller than the number of Task Request Settings in Settings | Annotators and QAs will receive the remaining items from the next folder. Suppose a project has a Request item number of 50 and contains the following items: Folder A: 40 items Folder B: 30 items When the Annotator or QA request items, they'll receive 40 items from Folder A and then 10 items from Folder B. |
- Annotators and QAs have to finish working on the assigned items to be able to request more items.
- An Annotator can't receive items from folders assigned to other Annotators.
- A QA can't receive items from folders assigned to other QAs.
