Overview
Overview
In order to upload tasks to a pool, you need to create JSON objects that contain:
- The input data for the tasks (such as text or image URLs).
- Correct responses (for control tasks).
- Hints (for training tasks).
Toloka automatically combines tasks into suites. You only need to specify the number of tasks to include in each suite (the mixer_config key in the pool).
If you want to create the task suites yourself, follow the instructions in Overview.
Methods
| Method | End point | Overview |
|---|---|---|
| POST | api/v1/tasks | Creates a task. |
| POST | api/v1/tasks | Creates multiple tasks. |
| GET | api/v1/tasks/<task_id> | Gets task data. |
| GET | api/v1/tasks | Gets the list of tasks in the pool. |
| PATCH | api/v1/tasks/<task_id> | Changes the task overlap. |
| PATCH | api/v1/tasks/<task_id> | Stops assigning a task to users. |

Merging tasks
Tasks with identical input data can be merged. This allows you to save money if the same task was uploaded to different pools.
- You can only merge tasks in open pools. If a new pool got a task that was previously completed in a pool that has been closed or archived, the tasks won't be merged.
- You can only merge your main tasks.
The response to the task received will be automatically assigned to another task if:
- Both tasks have the same input data.
- The tasks are located in different pools of the same project.
- An identical task is available to the performer responding.
- It has fewer responses than the overlap.
The response will be recorded with a zero price, and the overlap will be reduced by one.
This option is only available for main tasks without automatic acceptance that were uploaded using “smart mixing” .
To activate task merging in a project, specify "assignments_automerge_enabled": true in the project.
