Personal info

After you create an account in Label Studio, you can update the following:

  • First name
  • Last name
  • Phone number
  • Profile image (use an image no larger than 1200 x 1200 pixels or 1024 KB)

Because your email address is your username, you cannot update it. If you need to change your email address, you will need to create a different user with the new email address.

Hotkeys

Use this page to configure custom hotkeys for your user account.

Actions

Action Description
Export Hotkeys Generate a JSON file that you can share with other Label Studio users.
Import Hotkeys Copy and paste JSON-formatted custom hotkey mapping.
Reset to Defaults Reset all hotkeys to their default values.

Set custom hotkeys

For each hotkey, click the default hotkeys listed next each action. Then, when prompted, press the keys that you would like to use instead.

note

Each hotkey can be a single character key (a number, letter, symbol) or it can be a combination of a character key and multiple control keys (for example, Shift, Control Option, etc).

On this page, you can find information about your organization, such as when the organization was created and the email address of the Owner (the user who initially created the Label Studio organization).

You can also see a high-level summary of your contributions.

Personal access token

note

Whether this option appears depends on settings at your organization level.

Click Create to generate an access token. When creating a token, ensure you save it somewhere secure, as it will only be visible one time.

While personal access tokens work seamlessly with the Label Studio SDK, if you are using HTTP API requests, you will need to take extra steps. See Personal access tokens and the API.

Legacy token

note

Whether this option appears depends on settings at your organization level.

This token is pre-generated for you to use. Legacy tokens are easier to use for some API tasks, but are generally less secure. For more information, see Access tokens.

Click Renew to generate a new token. Any existing scripts using your old token will lose their authorization and will need to be updated to include your new token.
