# Use the warning system

{% hint style="info" %}

{% endhint %}

When in a labeling / reviewing interface, you can open the warnings sidebar from the navigation bar by clicking the warnings icon.

When the warnings sidebar is opened, you can click "Check sample" to verify the annotations with the configured rules. The resulting warnings will be displayed in the overview.

&#x20;Triggering the check to run again can be done using the button at the bottom of the sidebar.

In the warning list, you can see an overview of the potential issues.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://1553794111-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FHczBG7NHgAtEe4ql1rXH%2Fuploads%2FZbz2QPe3k3Mwwom5ntWv%2Fwarning-list.jpg?alt=media&amp;token=fe5780c1-4607-4b43-954c-12d736bc879e" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Individual warnings can be dismissed by clicking the 'x' icon on the top right of a warning. Re-running the check will re-add any dismissed warnings if they are still present in the sample.

To quickly jump to the context of a warning, you can click on the last pill button (e.g. "Track 1 & 2" in the image above). This will update the current sensor, frame and track to match the warning.

To facilitate going through the set of warnings and treating them in an organised manner, you can filter the list to only display warnings matching the current sensor / frame / active object, or filter to display only a specific warning type.

<figure><img src="https://1553794111-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FHczBG7NHgAtEe4ql1rXH%2Fuploads%2FSstTDdc29l5UwuT1W2Ha%2Fwarnings-filter.jpg?alt=media&amp;token=a5b37957-e0d9-4234-bda7-d08e8a4ecd48" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

In addition to this, you can also group the warnings by type, sensor, or track. The grouping can be combined with an active filter to fully tailor the warning list to your needs. &#x20;

## Save flow

The save / submit / review flow now allows you to run the check before saving.

<p align="center"><img src="https://1553794111-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FHczBG7NHgAtEe4ql1rXH%2Fuploads%2FIDS5hiT31EPppSqd8yE4%2Flabeling-actions.jpg?alt=media&amp;token=f13f9021-543b-45ef-ade1-ce18bc230925" alt=""> </p>

If warnings are found, a prompt will ask you whether you want to proceed anyway, or if you want to check the warnings by opening the sidebar.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.segments.ai/how-to-annotate/use-the-warning-system.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
