Project Team

Project User

A user with access to a particular project and who can contribute to its data, tasks, and annotations is known as a Project User. Project users can have different levels of access and permissions, derived from their granted role. For example:

• An Annotator can view and annotate data.
• A Developer can train machine learning models or manage the entire workflow.

User Groups

A User Group allows you to assign a specific task to a set of users, giving them all the same Project Role. This enables efficient assignment of project roles to multiple users simultaneously.

Project Team - Organizational Context

Users added to a project can have the following organizational contexts:

• From the Owning Organization: An Org-member is added as a developer or an Org-worker as an annotator.
• External Users: Freelancers or users without an organizational relationship.
• Service Providers: Users from labeling-service companies, such as annotation managers, who can then add annotators from their organization.

User Roles Hierarchy

Roles are predefined permissions assigned to users or groups. These roles streamline permission management. Available roles include:

• Project Owner: Full permissions to manage projects, datasets, storage drivers, assign users, change roles, export data, etc.
• Developer: Manage datasets, storage drivers, set recipes, create tasks, export data.
• Annotation Manager: Create annotations or QA tasks, assign/reassign tasks, review, and view datasets.
• Annotator: Perform annotation and QA assignments.

Roles and Permissions

Permissions in Dataloop are role-based. Roles restrict sensitive actions such as modifying label lists or deleting data.

They cannot see or interact with users outside their organization within the project.
