Creating and managing a project

A Project is a set of data (documents or pages with various annotations used for training and evaluation) and models (a system that you train on the training data to make the predictions on other documents or pages not seen before).

Create a new Project

1. Click the Create a new Project panel on the H2O Document AI - Publisher homepage

2. Enter the name of your project
3. Toggle whether to auto-purge your training artifacts
4. Toggle whether to schedule the deletion of your project along with its resources
5. (Optional) Add a description for your project
6. Input any collaborators you want to work with on this project (if none, then leave empty)
7. Upload the desired documents, images, or compressed files
8. Click Create project

You will find your newly created project under Projects on the left navigation bar. You will also see the artifact uploaded under the Documents sets and Annotation sets sections on your Project home page.

info

Depending upon the size of the uploaded file, it might take some time to populate the Documents sets and Annotation sets sections with the number of documents and the number of pages. You can check the status of the upload by looking at the Status column on the Document sets, Annotation sets, or Jobs pages. A job that is running is pending or processing. A finished job is done or ready.

You can also check the status of a project by opening the background processes tab. You access this by clicking the bell icon next to your account name.

Auto-purge

Automatically purge your training artifacts. Set this option when creating or editing your project. This feature is enabled by your system administrator. The retention period is set by your system administrator, too.

Scheduled deletion

Schedule the deletion of your whole project and all of its resources. By toggling on this feature while creating or editing your project, you can set the date you want to erase your project.

Project collaboration

You can invite other users (collaborators) to work on your project by providing their email addresses in the edit projects panel. Manage your collaborators when creating your project or through selecting Edit Project from the upper navigation bar.

The creator of the project is the owner and ownership cannot be changed. Only the owner has the ability to add or remove collaborators and the ability to open the Edit Project panel. Except for these owner-exclusive privileges, collaborators have the same privileges as the project owner (such as working with document and annotation sets and publishing pipelines).

The UI manages collaborators using a picker component and the role binding is made exclusively through email. The UI validates the existence of the email to your organization (however, it won't autocomplete). An invalid email will prompt an error response.

Project panels

The project panels show overviews of each page. You can access each page by clicking See All on this panel or by accessing it via the left navigation bar.
