Configure Task Input Fields

The Input Field tab enables you to specify fields that must exist in source files containing unlabeled input data. Once you save these specifications, Taskmonk uses these fields to validate unlabeled data during file-based import.

 You can add input fields into Taskmonk projects manually or using a project input file.

Adding Input Fields from a Project Input File

This is the easiest way to add input fields to your project.

When you add input fields from a project input file, Taskmonk reads the column headers available in the file and automatically creates fields using the header information in your data file. You can then review the auto-created fields and update them as required.

To add input fields from a project input file, click the Browse Input Field button and select the input source file. Taskmonk now identifies column headers in the source file and creates an input field for each column header:

Adding Input Fields Manually

To manually add input fields to your project UI:

1. In the Input Fields tab, click Create Input Field. The Create Input Field modal appears.

2. Enter the name of the input field.

   

    

3. Click Create to add the new field to your project.

You can similarly add as many input fields as required.

Updating Input Fields

Once you have created the input fields associated with your project, you can update their details and order as required.

You can perform the following updates on your project input fields:

• Update input field names

• Update input field types

• Reorder input fields

Updating Input Field Names

To update an input field’s name:

1. Click the Edit icon adjacent to it. This renders the Field Name field editable.

2. Update the name as required, and click the Update Field Name icon.

Updating Input Field Types

To update input field types:

1. Click the Field Type drop-down list to display the field type options available.

2. Select the required field type. For example, in the screenshot below, the product_URL field refers to a column in the input file that contains links to product images. If you want the labeling UI to display the image, you must change the field type to Image.

   

    

   For more information on field types in Taskmonk, see Understanding Field Types.

3. Set Mandatory as True to indicate that this field must be filled when updating input data.

4. Set Operational as True to make the field available to labelers.

Reordering Input Fields

It is typically a good idea to order your input fields in the same sequence as the column headers in the project input files.

To reorder input fields, use the Up and Down arrows adjacent to the field names.
