I have uploaded many images to a project that need their classification group updated. Is there a way to assign an annotation job with this images? Roboflow considers them annotated in a group with the name of the folder they were from, but the folder names are not relevant for this project.

Alternatively, is there a way to de-annotate the entire dataset?

Yes. This is typically how it works. After uploading a dataset, the screen to assign jobs will appear. This is where you would then invite members of the annotations team and split the work.

In the preprocessing step, click `Add processing step` then click `Modify classes`. from there you have the opportunity to override any classification name. You wouldn’t be able to assign this as a job, though it is only a ~3 step process

The best way to achieve this would be to begin anew
