Capture Review

Capture Review

Capture review is available if you disagree with the quality evaluation for captures that are part of an order. Capture review submissions require a categorization, and a written description of the issue observed after which the capture in question will be reassessed. Updates to a submitted capture review can be tracked via the API or the Tasking Dashboard.

Capture Review API

The Capture Review API consists of the following endpoint, against which you can make GET and POST requests:

https://api.planet.com/tasking/v2/captures/{capture_id}/reviews/

For GET requests, this endpoint accepts a variety of filters as query parameters, which can help you narrow your results to the desired capture review.

For POST requests, this endpoint accepts data comprising a CaptureReview object, which minimally contains capture_id, category, and description. Valid category values are as follows: CLOUD_COVER, HAZE, DISPLACEMENT, BRIGHTNESS_ISSUE, SHADOWS, or OTHER

Please consult the API reference for additional details on either endpoint or the CaptureReview model.

Usage

Assuming a UUID capture id value of 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000, you can make a request to retrieve existing reviews like so:

curl --request GET
--url 'https://api.planet.com/tasking/v2/captures/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/reviews/'
--header "Authorization: api-key $PL_API_KEY"
--header "Content-Type: application/json"

This should return one or more capture reviews corresponding to the open reviews on the provided capture's id.

In order to submit a capture for review, again assuming the above capture id, make a request like so:

curl --request POST
--url 'https://api.planet.com/tasking/v2/captures/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/reviews/'
--header "Authorization: api-key $PL_API_KEY"
--header "Content-Type: application/json"
--data '{
capture_id: "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000",
category: "BRIGHTNESS_ISSUE"
description: "Hello,\n\nThe capture for this order appears too dark. Specifically, ..."
}'

This creates a capture review for the capture with corresponding id, kicking off the reassessment process.

As a general note, you should always provide as much information as possible in the description field which can help expedite the review process.
