The annotation API provides utility modules for CVAT annotation tool.
This part of the package is intended to support:
- annotation metadata representation
- credential handling
- CVAT authentication
- project-based annotation workflows
- retrieval and persistence of annotation state
A typical annotation workflow may involve:
- configuring credentials
- authenticating to the annotation backend
- creating or resuming a project
- posting images for annotation
- retrieving annotations for downstream processing
Because annotation systems are external integrations, exact behavior depends on deployment topology, endpoint configuration, authentication policy, and dataset conventions.
