Importing Annotations for keeping progress (COCO JSON)

[DanielJBernard]

I noticed that one problem with this AI was I could export a COCO file as one JSON file with the current annotations on the images I had already completed. However, it seems you can't import that progress at least with COCO JSON Files which is the only type I tested. None of my annotations or the images that I annotated would show up when attempting an import. This was a slight problem because this means if I had hundreds of images to annotate, I would have to keep my progress by keeping my browser open for days depending on the workload for a project. Luckily this did not effect me that much considering my workload was not in the hundreds but for others that maybe are using this AI to annotate within that range of images, this would be very frustrating.

Hi, @DanielJBernard this is really weird... we support COCO JSON import. Could you share with me the COCO JSON file that you are trying to import as well as one or more images that you already labeled?

[DanielJBernard]

Well this is interesting, it won't sadly let me upload a JSON file here, but I just attempted to import my JSON files and it, worked. I have no idea why it did not before. When I was having this issue I noticed someone else having the same problem with the browser version, this was not long ago of an issue for me personally. I could not tell you what changed to be quite honest.

This link is to an issue earlier that someone also made about the same issue. I do not know if this was a hiccup during the past month for some people or not, but good news is, I can import annotations now which is going to save me a lot of time.
