You are browsing the documentation for a deprecated version ('2014-08-15') of the Amazon Mechanical Turk Requester API. This version of the API will be deprecated and will be rendered unusable as of June 1st, 2019. If you request against a legacy API version (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSMechTurk/latest/AWSMturkAPI-legacy/Welcome.html) on or after June 1, 2019, you will receive the following response:
The latest version of our API ('2017-01-17') provides you with additional tool choices and enables you to select from nine AWS Software Development Kits This version also updates naming conventions used in the API and adopts the AWS standard of Signature Version 4 to authenticate requests securely. The API uses REST requests and no longer requires that developers be familiar with SOAP protocol. These changes make the MTurk API consistent with AWS APIs, simplifying the on-boarding process for both new and existing AWS developers. The legacy MTurk Command Line Tools and .NET, Java, Ruby, and Perl SDKs were marked as deprecated in January 2018. We will be deprecating the legacy APIs as of June 1, 2019. If you are on a legacy API, you must migrate to the latest
version of our API. You can find documentation for the latest API here and the AWS SDKs here For support, contact requestor-apilegacydeprecation-support@amazon.com |
AssignQualification
Description
The AssignQualification
operation gives a Worker a
Qualification. AssignQualification
does not require that the Worker
submit a Qualification request. It gives the Qualification directly to the Worker.
You can only assign a Qualification of a Qualification type that you created (using the CreateQualificationType operation).
Tip
AssignQualification
does not affect any pending Qualification
requests for the Qualification by the Worker. If you assign a Qualification to a
Worker, then later grant a Qualification request made by the Worker, the granting of
the request may modify the Qualification score. To resolve a pending Qualification
request without affecting the Qualification the Worker already has, reject the
request with the
RejectQualificationRequest operation.
