Covers 39 endpoints." version: 1.0.0 generator: lapsh --- # Amazon Mechanical Turk API version: 2017-01-17 ## Auth AWS SigV4 ## Base URL Not specified. ## Setup 1. Configure auth: AWS SigV4 3. POST / -- create first resource ## Endpoints 39 endpoints across 1 groups. See references/api-spec.lap for full details. ### root | Method | Path | Description | |--------|------|-------------| | POST | / | The AcceptQualificationRequest operation approves a Worker's request for a Qualification. Only the owner of the Qualification type can grant a Qualification request for that type. A successful request for the AcceptQualificationRequest operation returns with no errors and an empty body. | | POST | / | The ApproveAssignment operation approves the results of a completed assignment. Approving an assignment initiates two payments from the Requester's Amazon.com account The Worker who submitted the results is paid the reward specified in the HIT. Amazon Mechanical Turk fees are debited. If the Requester's account does not have adequate funds for these payments, the call to ApproveAssignment returns an exception, and the approval is not processed. You can include an optional feedback message with the approval, which the Worker can see in the Status section of the web site. You can also call this operation for assignments that were previous rejected and approve them by explicitly overriding the previous rejection. This only works on rejected assignments that were submitted within the previous 30 days and only if the assignment's related HIT has not been deleted. | | POST | / | The AssociateQualificationWithWorker operation gives a Worker a Qualification. AssociateQualificationWithWorker does not require that the Worker submit a Qualification request. It gives the Qualification directly to the Worker. You can only assign a Qualification of a Qualification type that you created (using the CreateQualificationType operation). Note: AssociateQualificationWithWorker does not affect any pending Qualification requests for the Qualification by the Worker. If you assign a Qualification to a Worker, then later grant a Qualification request made by the Worker, the granting of the request may modify the Qualification score. To resolve a pending Qualification request without affecting the Qualification the Worker already has, reject the request with the RejectQualificationRequest operation. | | POST | / | The CreateAdditionalAssignmentsForHIT operation increases the maximum number of assignments of an existing HIT. To extend the maximum number of assignments, specify the number of additional assignments. HITs created with fewer than 10 assignments cannot be extended to have 10 or more assignments. Attempting to add assignments in a way that brings the total number of assignments for a HIT from fewer than 10 assignments to 10 or more assignments will result in an AWS.MechanicalTurk.InvalidMaximumAssignmentsIncrease exception. HITs that were created before July 22, 2015 cannot be extended. Attempting to extend HITs that were created before July 22, 2015 will result in an AWS.MechanicalTurk.HITTooOldForExtension exception. | | POST | / | The CreateHIT operation creates a new Human Intelligence Task (HIT). The new HIT is made available for Workers to find and accept on the Amazon Mechanical Turk website. This operation allows you to specify a new HIT by passing in values for the properties of the HIT, such as its title, reward amount and number of assignments. When you pass these values to CreateHIT, a new HIT is created for you, with a new HITTypeID. The HITTypeID can be used to create additional HITs in the future without needing to specify common parameters such as the title, description and reward amount each time. An alternative way to create HITs is to first generate a HITTypeID using the CreateHITType operation and then call the CreateHITWithHITType operation. This is the recommended best practice for Requesters who are creating large numbers of HITs. CreateHIT also supports several ways to provide question data: by providing a value for the Question parameter that fully specifies the contents of the HIT, or by providing a HitLayoutId and associated HitLayoutParameters. If a HIT is created with 10 or more maximum assignments, there is an additional fee. For more information, see Amazon Mechanical Turk Pricing. | | POST | / | The CreateHITType operation creates a new HIT type. This operation allows you to define a standard set of HIT properties to use when creating HITs. If you register a HIT type with values that match an existing HIT type, the HIT type ID of the existing type will be returned. | | POST | / | The CreateHITWithHITType operation creates a new Human Intelligence Task (HIT) using an existing HITTypeID generated by the CreateHITType operation. This is an alternative way to create HITs from the CreateHIT operation. This is the recommended best practice for Requesters who are creating large numbers of HITs. CreateHITWithHITType also supports several ways to provide question data: by providing a value for the Question parameter that fully specifies the contents of the HIT, or by providing a HitLayoutId and associated HitLayoutParameters. If a HIT is created with 10 or more maximum assignments, there is an additional fee. For more information, see Amazon Mechanical Turk Pricing. | | POST | / | The CreateQualificationType operation creates a new Qualification type, which is represented by a QualificationType data structure. | | POST | / | The CreateWorkerBlock operation allows you to prevent a Worker from working on your HITs. For example, you can block a Worker who is producing poor quality work. You can block up to 100,000 Workers. | | POST | / | The DeleteHIT operation is used to delete HIT that is no longer needed. Only the Requester who created the HIT can delete it. You can only dispose of HITs that are in the Reviewable state, with all of their submitted assignments already either approved or rejected. If you call the DeleteHIT operation on a HIT that is not in the Reviewable state (for example, that has not expired, or still has active assignments), or on a HIT that is Reviewable but without all of its submitted assignments already approved or rejected, the service will return an error. HITs are automatically disposed of after 120 days. After you dispose of a HIT, you can no longer approve the HIT's rejected assignments. Disposed HITs are not returned in results for the ListHITs operation. Disposing HITs can improve the performance of operations such as ListReviewableHITs and ListHITs. | | POST | / | The DeleteQualificationType deletes a Qualification type and deletes any HIT types that are associated with the Qualification type. This operation does not revoke Qualifications already assigned to Workers because the Qualifications might be needed for active HITs. If there are any pending requests for the Qualification type, Amazon Mechanical Turk rejects those requests. After you delete a Qualification type, you can no longer use it to create HITs or HIT types. DeleteQualificationType must wait for all the HITs that use the deleted Qualification type to be deleted before completing. It may take up to 48 hours before DeleteQualificationType completes and the unique name of the Qualification type is available for reuse with CreateQualificationType. | | POST | / | The DeleteWorkerBlock operation allows you to reinstate a blocked Worker to work on your HITs. This operation reverses the effects of the CreateWorkerBlock operation. You need the Worker ID to use this operation. If the Worker ID is missing or invalid, this operation fails and returns the message “WorkerId is invalid.” If the specified Worker is not blocked, this operation returns successfully. | | POST | / | The DisassociateQualificationFromWorker revokes a previously granted Qualification from a user. You can provide a text message explaining why the Qualification was revoked. The user who had the Qualification can see this message. | | POST | / | The GetAccountBalance operation retrieves the Prepaid HITs balance in your Amazon Mechanical Turk account if you are a Prepaid Requester. Alternatively, this operation will retrieve the remaining available AWS Billing usage if you have enabled AWS Billing. Note: If you have enabled AWS Billing and still have a remaining Prepaid HITs balance, this balance can be viewed on the My Account page in the Requester console. | | POST | / | The GetAssignment operation retrieves the details of the specified Assignment. | | POST | / | The GetFileUploadURL operation generates and returns a temporary URL. You use the temporary URL to retrieve a file uploaded by a Worker as an answer to a FileUploadAnswer question for a HIT. The temporary URL is generated the instant the GetFileUploadURL operation is called, and is valid for 60 seconds. You can get a temporary file upload URL any time until the HIT is disposed. After the HIT is disposed, any uploaded files are deleted, and cannot be retrieved. Pending Deprecation on December 12, 2017. The Answer Specification structure will no longer support the FileUploadAnswer element to be used for the QuestionForm data structure. Instead, we recommend that Requesters who want to create HITs asking Workers to upload files to use Amazon S3. | | POST | / | The GetHIT operation retrieves the details of the specified HIT. | | POST | / | The GetQualificationScore operation returns the value of a Worker's Qualification for a given Qualification type. To get a Worker's Qualification, you must know the Worker's ID. The Worker's ID is included in the assignment data returned by the ListAssignmentsForHIT operation. Only the owner of a Qualification type can query the value of a Worker's Qualification of that type. | | POST | / | The GetQualificationTypeoperation retrieves information about a Qualification type using its ID. | | POST | / | The ListAssignmentsForHIT operation retrieves completed assignments for a HIT. You can use this operation to retrieve the results for a HIT. You can get assignments for a HIT at any time, even if the HIT is not yet Reviewable. If a HIT requested multiple assignments, and has received some results but has not yet become Reviewable, you can still retrieve the partial results with this operation. Use the AssignmentStatus parameter to control which set of assignments for a HIT are returned. The ListAssignmentsForHIT operation can return submitted assignments awaiting approval, or it can return assignments that have already been approved or rejected. You can set AssignmentStatus=Approved,Rejected to get assignments that have already been approved and rejected together in one result set. Only the Requester who created the HIT can retrieve the assignments for that HIT. Results are sorted and divided into numbered pages and the operation returns a single page of results. You can use the parameters of the operation to control sorting and pagination. | | POST | / | The ListBonusPayments operation retrieves the amounts of bonuses you have paid to Workers for a given HIT or assignment. | | POST | / | The ListHITs operation returns all of a Requester's HITs. The operation returns HITs of any status, except for HITs that have been deleted of with the DeleteHIT operation or that have been auto-deleted. | | POST | / | The ListHITsForQualificationType operation returns the HITs that use the given Qualification type for a Qualification requirement. The operation returns HITs of any status, except for HITs that have been deleted with the DeleteHIT operation or that have been auto-deleted. | | POST | / | The ListQualificationRequests operation retrieves requests for Qualifications of a particular Qualification type.
