Mindkosh supports a variety of annotation formats when exporting the completed labels. To export annotations from a task, create a Release. Go to the release page by clicking on the Releases button on the task page.
The release page shows you a list of all the releases created earlier. If you want to download a previously exported set of annotations, you can do so from here.
To create a new release, click on the "Create new release button", which will take you to the New release page. Once on that page, select the batches you would like to export, and click on on Create release. This will open up the format selection dialog box.
Choose the format you would like to export in. Do note that not all formats support all types of annotations. For example, the YOLO format only supports bounding box annotations. If you have polygons in your task, those will not be included in the YOLO export.
Optionally, you can also add a description to keep track of the releases. You can also use the description to add a version system to your exports, as shown in the image above.
Creating a release can take some time depending on the volume of data and the type of annotation involved. You can see the status of the release on the Releases page. Once the annotations are ready for download, the status will change to "Ready". You will also get a notification indicating the release is ready for download. You can then download the release by clicking on the download button for that release.
Please note that you can only maintain 10 releases at any time. Once you have reached that limit, you will need to delete a release, in order to create a new one.
