Uploading to CoLoop

The briefing document in the project setup helps CoLoop understand the background context to your research. We strongly recommend providing one to make sure the AI understand the context and objectives of your research!

Once you have downloaded your files from Field Notes simply upload them to CoLoop using the corresponding Field Notes option.

  1. Create a project in CoLoop
  2. Upload your briefing document, as a reminder this should:
    1. Contain an overview of your research project
    2. Include the key objectives
    3. Be in DOCX format
  3. Use the Field Notes option to import the json file
