Class CreateHitRequest

    • Method Detail

      • maxAssignments

        public final Integer maxAssignments()

        The number of times the HIT can be accepted and completed before the HIT becomes unavailable.

        Returns:
        The number of times the HIT can be accepted and completed before the HIT becomes unavailable.
      • autoApprovalDelayInSeconds

        public final Long autoApprovalDelayInSeconds()

        The number of seconds after an assignment for the HIT has been submitted, after which the assignment is considered Approved automatically unless the Requester explicitly rejects it.

        Returns:
        The number of seconds after an assignment for the HIT has been submitted, after which the assignment is considered Approved automatically unless the Requester explicitly rejects it.
      • lifetimeInSeconds

        public final Long lifetimeInSeconds()

        An amount of time, in seconds, after which the HIT is no longer available for users to accept. After the lifetime of the HIT elapses, the HIT no longer appears in HIT searches, even if not all of the assignments for the HIT have been accepted.

        Returns:
        An amount of time, in seconds, after which the HIT is no longer available for users to accept. After the lifetime of the HIT elapses, the HIT no longer appears in HIT searches, even if not all of the assignments for the HIT have been accepted.
      • assignmentDurationInSeconds

        public final Long assignmentDurationInSeconds()

        The amount of time, in seconds, that a Worker has to complete the HIT after accepting it. If a Worker does not complete the assignment within the specified duration, the assignment is considered abandoned. If the HIT is still active (that is, its lifetime has not elapsed), the assignment becomes available for other users to find and accept.

        Returns:
        The amount of time, in seconds, that a Worker has to complete the HIT after accepting it. If a Worker does not complete the assignment within the specified duration, the assignment is considered abandoned. If the HIT is still active (that is, its lifetime has not elapsed), the assignment becomes available for other users to find and accept.
      • reward

        public final String reward()

        The amount of money the Requester will pay a Worker for successfully completing the HIT.

        Returns:
        The amount of money the Requester will pay a Worker for successfully completing the HIT.
      • title

        public final String title()

        The title of the HIT. A title should be short and descriptive about the kind of task the HIT contains. On the Amazon Mechanical Turk web site, the HIT title appears in search results, and everywhere the HIT is mentioned.

        Returns:
        The title of the HIT. A title should be short and descriptive about the kind of task the HIT contains. On the Amazon Mechanical Turk web site, the HIT title appears in search results, and everywhere the HIT is mentioned.
      • keywords

        public final String keywords()

        One or more words or phrases that describe the HIT, separated by commas. These words are used in searches to find HITs.

        Returns:
        One or more words or phrases that describe the HIT, separated by commas. These words are used in searches to find HITs.
      • description

        public final String description()

        A general description of the HIT. A description includes detailed information about the kind of task the HIT contains. On the Amazon Mechanical Turk web site, the HIT description appears in the expanded view of search results, and in the HIT and assignment screens. A good description gives the user enough information to evaluate the HIT before accepting it.

        Returns:

      • question

        public final String question()

        The data the person completing the HIT uses to produce the results.

        Constraints: Must be a QuestionForm data structure, an ExternalQuestion data structure, or an HTMLQuestion data structure. The XML question data must not be larger than 64 kilobytes (65,535 bytes) in size, including whitespace.

        Either a Question parameter or a HITLayoutId parameter must be provided.

        Returns:
        The data the person completing the HIT uses to produce the results.

        Constraints: Must be a QuestionForm data structure, an ExternalQuestion data structure, or an HTMLQuestion data structure. The XML question data must not be larger than 64 kilobytes (65,535 bytes) in size, including whitespace.

        Either a Question parameter or a HITLayoutId parameter must be provided.

      • requesterAnnotation

        public final String requesterAnnotation()

        An arbitrary data field. The RequesterAnnotation parameter lets your application attach arbitrary data to the HIT for tracking purposes. For example, this parameter could be an identifier internal to the Requester's application that corresponds with the HIT.

        The RequesterAnnotation parameter for a HIT is only visible to the Requester who created the HIT. It is not shown to the Worker, or any other Requester.

        The RequesterAnnotation parameter may be different for each HIT you submit. It does not affect how your HITs are grouped.

        Returns:

      • hasQualificationRequirements

        public final boolean hasQualificationRequirements()
        For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the QualificationRequirements property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
      • qualificationRequirements

        public final List<QualificationRequirement> qualificationRequirements()

        Conditions that a Worker's Qualifications must meet in order to accept the HIT. A HIT can have between zero and ten Qualification requirements. All requirements must be met in order for a Worker to accept the HIT. Additionally, other actions can be restricted using the ActionsGuarded field on each QualificationRequirement structure.

        Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.

        This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasQualificationRequirements() method.

        Returns:
        Conditions that a Worker's Qualifications must meet in order to accept the HIT. A HIT can have between zero and ten Qualification requirements. All requirements must be met in order for a Worker to accept the HIT. Additionally, other actions can be restricted using the ActionsGuarded field on each QualificationRequirement structure.
      • uniqueRequestToken

        public final String uniqueRequestToken()

        A unique identifier for this request which allows you to retry the call on error without creating duplicate HITs. This is useful in cases such as network timeouts where it is unclear whether or not the call succeeded on the server. If the HIT already exists in the system from a previous call using the same UniqueRequestToken, subsequent calls will return a AWS.MechanicalTurk.HitAlreadyExists error with a message containing the HITId.

        Note: It is your responsibility to ensure uniqueness of the token. The unique token expires after 24 hours. Subsequent calls using the same UniqueRequestToken made after the 24 hour limit could create duplicate HITs.

        Returns:
        A unique identifier for this request which allows you to retry the call on error without creating duplicate HITs. This is useful in cases such as network timeouts where it is unclear whether or not the call succeeded on the server.

      • assignmentReviewPolicy

        public final ReviewPolicy assignmentReviewPolicy()

        The Assignment-level Review Policy applies to the assignments under the HIT. You can specify for Mechanical Turk to take various actions based on the policy.

        Returns:
        The Assignment-level Review Policy applies to the assignments under the HIT. You can specify for Mechanical Turk to take various actions based on the policy.
      • hitReviewPolicy

        public final ReviewPolicy hitReviewPolicy()

        The HIT-level Review Policy applies to the HIT. You can specify for Mechanical Turk to take various actions based on the policy.

        Returns:
        The HIT-level Review Policy applies to the HIT. You can specify for Mechanical Turk to take various actions based on the policy.
      • hitLayoutId

        public final String hitLayoutId()

        The HITLayoutId allows you to use a pre-existing HIT design with placeholder values and create an additional HIT by providing those values as HITLayoutParameters.

        Constraints: Either a Question parameter or a HITLayoutId parameter must be provided.

        Returns:
        The HITLayoutId allows you to use a pre-existing HIT design with placeholder values and create an additional HIT by providing those values as HITLayoutParameters.

        Constraints: Either a Question parameter or a HITLayoutId parameter must be provided.

      • hasHitLayoutParameters

        public final boolean hasHitLayoutParameters()
        For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the HITLayoutParameters property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map.

      • hitLayoutParameters

        public final List<HITLayoutParameter> hitLayoutParameters()

        If the HITLayoutId is provided, any placeholder values must be filled in with values using the HITLayoutParameter structure. For more information, see HITLayout.

        Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.

        This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasHitLayoutParameters() method.

        Returns:

      • toString

        public final String toString()
        Returns a string representation of this object. This is useful for testing and debugging. Sensitive data will be redacted from this string using a placeholder value.
        Overrides:
        toString in class Object
