How to Create Tasks for Your Project

All necessary templates can be found in our documentation library under how to host your own iframe task.

Step 1 – Define framework conditions for the tasks

Copy the code from our task template and save it as an XML document.
Adjust the template to your needs. Please note that the following information must be integrated:
- Job type (e.g. web research, survey, etc.)
- Job title
- Clickworker briefing document
- Specifications for the targeted Clickworker group and the payment for each completed task.
  You can set following specifications as <value> here:
  Countries, fee amounts (in cents), age (from – to), gender, manual review, and acceptance or rejection of results (yes/no).
  Please do not change anything in the <elements> section
Send the completed document to our API.

Step 2 – Create tasks

Copy the code from our tasks template and save it as an XML document.
Paste in the link to the already created and sent (to our API) document./li>
Create the task form for our Clickworkers on your server. Enter the link to the task form into the document as <content>.
Send the completed document to our API. With each created document, you have created one job for one Clickworker. Create one task document for each job of your project.

The tasks created on your server will now be shown as a task to be integrated into an iframe in our workplace and processed on your server. Send us a postback as soon as a Clickworker has completed a job on your server – the Clickworker will then receive the specified payment.

You can find detailed instructions on how to use our External Form (iframe) service, as well as the templates necessary for processing in our documentation library: How to host your own iframe task.
