Create a task

To start a task, go to Tasks page /tasks by clicking on side menu Tasks and click on the Anonymize button.

Anonymize button

You can now follow 3 simple steps to create a new task:

1. Source: Choose either a file from your PC or a whole folder to process from the local storage or S3.

   • To process a file from your PC, use the file selection option or simply drag and drop the file into the designated area.

   • To process a folder, enter its path in the field. The path you enter represents a subdirectory of the LOCAL_STORAGE_INPUT_PATH (or STORAGE_S3_BUCKET if you use S3 storage) set in the Configuration section. Please ensure that the directory already exists and has some files in it. If you don't enter anything, BurIt OP will process files directly in LOCAL_STORAGE_INPUT_PATH (or STORAGE_S3_BUCKET)

2. Blur options: Select the desired task options from the following choices:

   • Face anonymisation

   • Plates anonymisation

   • Coordinates position

   • Add _anonymized suffix

   • Keep the audio track (only for zip/directory/videos)

   • Processing report (zip files only)

     • This option allows you to include in the ZIP file a CSV summary indicating the anonymization success status for all the files that were part of the original ZIP

   • Keep the files that cannot be blured (zip files only)

     • This option allows you to keep, within the anonymized ZIP, the files with unsupported formats that cannot be processed by the software

3. Output path: Specify the desired output location, whether it's local storage or S3. You can either change the name of the output file or create a new directory in the output to store your processed media. As for the source, the directory you enter here represents a subdirectory of LOCAL_STORAGE_OUTPUT_PATH (or STORAGE_S3_BUCKET if you use S3 storage). If you don't enter anything, BurIt OP will save processed files directly in LOCAL_STORAGE_OUTPUT_PATH (or STORAGE_S3_BUCKET)
