Here we take named entity recognition annotation task for science fiction to give you a brief tutorial on doccano. Below is a JSON file named books.json containing lots of science fictions description with different languages. We need to annotate some entities like person name, book title, date and so on.

Create a project
We need to create a new project for this task. Log in with the superuser account.
To create your project, make sure you're in the project list page and click Create button. As for this tutorial, we name the project as sequence labeling for books, write some description, choose the sequence labeling task type.
Import a dataset
After creating a project, we will see the Dataset page, and click Import dataset button in the Actions menu. We should see the following screen:
We choose JSON and click Select a file button. Select books.json and it would be loaded automatically.
Define labels
Click Labels button in the left left side menu to define our labels. We should see the label editor page. In label editor page, you can create labels by specifying label text, shortcut key, background color and text color.
As for the tutorial, we created some entities related to science fictions.
Add members
Click Members button in the left side menu. If you are not the project administrator, the button won't be displayed.
Then, select the Add button to display the form. Fill in this form with the user name and role you want to add to the project. Then, select the Save button.
If there is no user to select, please create users(see FAQ).
Annotation
Next, we are ready to annotate the texts. Just click the Start annotation button in the navigation bar, we can start to annotate the documents.
Export the dataset
After the annotation step, we can download the annotated data. Go to the Dataset page and click the Export dataset button in the Action menu. After selecting an export format, click Export. You should see the following screen:
Here we choose JSONL file to download the data by clicking the button. Below is the annotated result for our tutorial project.
