What data for this category looks like
Data for this category primarily comes from image samples uploaded via annotation platforms, preset category dictionaries, bounding box annotation results from annotators, and quality inspection reports and rework lists generated through random inspections. Data updates follow a daily or per-batch annotation task schedule. Each batch of data includes fields such as image path, target bounding box coordinates, category labels, confidence scores, and quality inspection status. Daily supporting documents include annotation specifications, bounding box example templates, rework rectification lists, and similar materials, used to unify execution standards for annotation and quality inspection.
What constraints do these characteristics impose on the HTTP Interfaces and External Systems link
The data characteristics of this category impose multiple constraints on the HTTP interfaces and external systems link. Image samples have large file sizes, so interfaces must adapt to size limits for single-file or batch transfers. Category dictionaries and annotation rules must be synchronized to external systems via interfaces, requiring strict matching of field formats and precision requirements. Rework lists and quality inspection reports must be updated in real time alongside annotation progress, so interfaces must support high-frequency calls and incremental synchronization. Bounding box coordinates for annotation results are floating-point values, which must follow agreed units and precision to avoid subsequent recognition errors caused by format mismatches. Data updates follow a daily or per-batch task schedule, so interfaces must adapt to performance requirements for batch data processing.
How to set configurations
The following configurations are based on FastGPT v4.17.0.
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
Authorization | Carry an authentication string in the Bearer {token} format | Complies with HTTP interface standard authentication specifications to ensure the security of external system calls |
variables | Pass variables in the {"image_path": "", "bbox": [], "category": ""} format | Matches the core data fields of image annotation projects and adapts to interface data parsing logic |
responseData | Configure to return the {"status": "", "message": "", "data": []} structure | Unifies the response format for external systems to facilitate quick parsing of interface return results |
| Timeout setting | 30–60 seconds | Adapts to the transmission and processing duration of a single batch of annotation data to avoid timeout errors caused by excessive waiting time |
| Batch transfer limit | First 50 entries | Balances interface call performance and data transmission efficiency, adapting to the conventional scale of single-batch annotation tasks |
Three Common Misconfigurations
- Symptom: The HTTP interface returns a 400 status code with a parameter format error prompt. Cause: The bounding box array or category labels were not passed in accordance with the field requirements of the image annotation project, causing the interface to fail to parse the data.
- Symptom: The interface returns an empty
responseDatafield after being called. Cause: Thevariablesparameter was not configured correctly, and core data fields such as image path and bounding box were not passed in, resulting in no valid return content from the interface. - Symptom: A timeout error occurs during batch transfer. Cause: The single transfer data volume exceeded the preset interface limit, and batches were not split for calls, resulting in processing duration exceeding the timeout setting.
How to Confirm Configuration is Complete
- Call the test interface with standard image annotation data, check that the
Authorizationauthentication passes, with no authentication failure prompts. - View the
responseDatafield returned by the interface, confirm that it includes the complete structure of status, message, and corresponding annotation data. - Pass single and batch data, verify that the interface processing duration is within the preset timeout range, with no timeout error reports.
- Simulate the incremental update scenario of annotation tasks, confirm that the interface can correctly receive newly added rework lists and quality inspection report data.
