   Note: All steps in this section are optional.

2. Update the Name of the batch.

3. Click to update the Priority of the batch. The higher the priority value of a batch, the earlier it gets routed to labelers for processing.

5. Click the Update icon to save your changes and update the batch.

Import Tasks into a Batch

To import tasks into a batch:

2. Select the radio button corresponding to the file type that you want to use to import tasks.

3. Click Choose Files and select the file that contains the tasks that you want to import.

   Note:

   1. The column names in your import file must match your project’s input field names. If you are unsure about the structure of the input file, click the Download Template File link below the radio buttons. Once you download this template, you can update it using the data that you want to import. You must, however, ensure that your data is organized to match the field labels in the template file.

   2. For media file imports, the allowed file type depends on the field type set in the input fields. For example, video field types allow you to upload only MP4 and AVI files.
      

4. Click Import. This triggers the import, and the modal informs you once the import is successful.

View as Gallery

If you are working on an image-related project, the Gallery View enables you to view the images that you imported in a batch, and perform specific tasks related to the images in the batch.

To access the gallery view, click the Batch Config Settings icon in the row representing the batch and, from the menu options that appear, click Gallery View. The Gallery View modal appears.

The Gallery View modal offers controls that enable you to perform the following tasks:

1. Search for specific images

2. View labeling input and output

3. Revalidate completed labeling

4. Download the dataset

5. Regenerate output for completed tasks

Search for Images

To search for an image in the Gallery, enter any part of the name of the image in the Search field. The modal displays a filtered list of images in real time.

View labeling input and output

The Gallery View modal displays both input images and the output that labelers created for them.

Viewing Labeling Input

The input images appear by default when the Gallery View modal appears. To redisplay the input view if you are viewing the output, click the View and select Input.

Viewing Labeling Output

To view the output view and related details:

1. Click the View and select Output. The modal now displays the images that have been labeled while displaying placeholder images for those that haven’t been labeled yet.
   

   

2. To view the labeling details associated with an image, click it. The image opens in a new modal named after the image, and you can see both the input image, output labels or segmentation, and the overlapped visualization view.
   

   

3. To download the JSON file generated by the labeling, click Download JSON.

4. Click Regenerate Output to regenerate the labeling output. This is especially useful if you decide to change the output format of the labeling data.
