Issues and Comments

Issues and comments provide a way to communicate with Annotators, Reviewers, Annotators & Reviewers, Team Managers, and Admins within Annotation projects and Active projects.

Issues and Comments are supported across Annotate and Active, meaning issues created in Annotate can be seen in Active, and issues create in Active can be seen in Annotate.
