Deprecating Export V1

Starting in April 2024, we will begin sunsetting Export V1 for customers on a rolling basis. For more details, see this guide.

Export JSON annotations

# Set the export params to include/exclude certain fields. Make sure each of these fields are correctly grabbed 
export_params= {
  "attachments": True,
  "metadata_fields": True,
  "data_row_details": True,
  "project_details": True,
  "label_details": True,
  "performance_details": True
}

# You can set the range for last_activity_at and label_created_at. 
# For context, last_activity_at captures the creation and modification of labels, metadata, status, comments and reviews.
# Note: This is an AND logic between the filters, so usually using one filter is sufficient.

  "last_activity_at": ["2000-01-01 00:00:00", "2050-01-01 00:00:00"],
