Hi Richard,

Is there an option to download multiple files at once that were annotated by the same annotator? When I back up the project, in the annotation folder I see the annotator’s name as the file name, and that way I lose the information about the original file name.  

Thank you in advance!

Kind regards,
Milica

At present, I'm afraid the project export is the only option of exporting multiple files at once.

There is a JSON file at the root of the project export which contains amongst other information the mapping of document ID to document name.

Feel free to open a feature request in the issue tracker:

INCEpTION 39.0 will bring the ability to export multiple documents from the workload page.
The result will be a ZIP file with one folder per selected annotator and the documents inside the folders have the name of the actual documents.

I hope that will help. Comment if you have any feedback.

Cheers,
