Hi

I have set up a HitType and enabled notifications for all event types using the C# API however no notifications from MTurk are being received.

I enable notifications using the following

var notificationTypes = new List<EventType> {
                EventType.AssignmentAbandoned,
                EventType.AssignmentAccepted,
                EventType.AssignmentReturned,
                EventType.AssignmentSubmitted,
                EventType.HITExpired,
                EventType.HITReviewable}.ToArray();
 
            var notificationSpecification = new NotificationSpecification
                                                {
                                                    Destination = MTurkNotificationUrl,
                                                    EventType = notificationTypes,
                                                    Transport = NotificationTransport.REST,
                                                    Version = MTurkConstants.NotificationVersion
                                                };
            _client.SetHITTypeNotification(hitTypeId, notificationSpecification, true);
...
}

I have tested that the REST endpoint is accessible externally and used the SendTestNotification API call to verify this.

There must be something wrong with either the code to enable the notifications or something at the Amazon end. Are notifications sent for sandbox HITs??

Any help is most appreciated!

NEW POST: help / creating external hit

MRIQUElyon — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 18:07:06 GMT

Hi there,

I'm totally knew to .net and trying to create Mturk external hit with the sdk, but I can not figure what's wrong with my code :

The debugger tell me I'm using a wrong type of variable, but I can not figure where after review of all my variables
("Value of type 'String' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional array of String'.")

Maybe someone could have a look and help me ?

Dim mt_client As New Amazon.WebServices.MechanicalTurk.SimpleClient()
Dim my_hit As New Amazon.WebServices.MechanicalTurk.Domain.HIT()

Dim My_hitTypeId As String
Dim My_title As String
Dim My_description As String
Dim My_keywords As String
Dim My_externalQuestion As New Amazon.WebServices.MechanicalTurk.Domain.ExternalQuestion
Dim My_reward As Decimal
Dim My_assignmentDurationInSeconds As Long
Dim My_autoApprovalDelayInSeconds As Long
Dim My_lifetimeInSeconds As Long
Dim My_maxAssignments As Integer
Dim My_requesterAnnotation As String
Dim My_qualificationRequirements As New System.Collections.Generic.List(Of Amazon.WebServices.MechanicalTurk.Domain.QualificationRequirement)
Dim My_responseGroup As String

My_hitTypeId = ""
My_title = "ALX TITRE"
My_description = "ALX DESCRIPTION"
Mykeywords = "alxkeyword1, alx_keyword2"
My_externalQuestion.ExternalURL = "http://www.google.com"
My_externalQuestion.FrameHeight = "600"
My_reward = 1
My_assignmentDurationInSeconds = 60 * 60
My_autoApprovalDelayInSeconds = 60 * 60 * 24 * 5
My_lifetimeInSeconds = 60 * 60
My_maxAssignments = 1
My_requesterAnnotation = "alx annotation"
My_qualificationRequirements.Clear()
My_responseGroup = "response groupe alx"

myhit = mtclient.CreateHIT(MyhitTypeId, Mytitle, Mydescription, Mykeywords, MyexternalQuestion, Myreward, MyassignmentDurationInSeconds, MyautoApprovalDelayInSeconds, MylifetimeInSeconds, MymaxAssignments, MyrequesterAnnotation, MyqualificationRequirements, My_responseGroup)

MsgBox(my_hit.HITId)
