Create a status

status creation

Custom statuses can be used within any workflow that you create. They allow you to create new stages for your annotation cycle that better fit your team's work processes.

Only members with the role of Team Admin or higher can create and view a status.

To use these custom statuses in your projects, make sure to include them in your custom workflow JSON.

Creating your status

You can create a new status from Team Setup.

  1. Go to the Statuses tab.
  2. Click + New Status.
  3. Type in a name for your new status.
  4. Type in a description (optional).
  5. Select an icon to represent the status.
  6. Select a shortcut that you can use to quickly change an item's status to this one.
  7. Click Create.

You can create up to 200 statuses per team, and they can't be edited or deleted yet.

Naming your custom status

  • Status names are considered case-insensitive and can contain alphanumeric characters and underscores _ only.
  • Status names can’t only contain the following reserved words (case-insensitive): Or, And, Contains, OrderBy, and Random.
  • Once you create a status, you can use it in any Workflow you create.
