Button for image file upload

Note

The task interface configuration guide describes the features of the HTML/JS/CSS editor. You can also try creating a button for uploading images in Template Builder.

To add an image upload button to the task, use the {{field type= "file-img" name="<output field name> "sources="<sources parameter>" fileType="<fileType parameter>"}}. After the image is uploaded the Toloker will see an icon for image preview. Example:

{{field type="file-img" name="photo" sources="CAMERA" fileType="IMAGE" camera=true}}

In the output data description, add one of the fields:

  • Field with the file type — for uploading one image only. Example:

    {
    "result": {
    "type": "file",
    "required": true
    }
    }

  • Field with the array_file type — for uploading several images at once. Example:

    {
    "result": {
    "type": "array_file",
    "required": true
    }
    }
