| + | The output option '''Actions''' gives you the option to save your search results (that is, the selection of articles found through a query) in three ways. |
| | | | |
| − | The Query output option '''Actions''' gives you the option to create new articlesets or codingjobs from query search results, or add additional articles to an existing articleset.

| − | *First, you can '''add search results to an existing articleset'''. This can be useful in several scenarios. For example, if you previously created an articleset containing news about all political parties, but you forgot to include one party in the search term, you can search for this party only and add the results to the previously created set. AmCAT removes potential duplicates automatically. Also, if you want to merge several smaller articlesets together in one large one, use this option, and leave the Keyword Search window empty to include all articles from the set you query. | + | *First, you can '''add search results to an existing articleset'''. Here, you need to select the '''project''' and the '''articleset''' you want to add the search results to. Click ‘Query’, and the articles will be added. |

| − | You need to select the '''project''' and the '''articleset''' you want to add the search results to. Click ‘Query’, and the articles will be added. AmCAT will tell you how many articles it added to the set after it is done.

| + | *Second, you can '''assign your search results as a codingjob directly'''. Select the '''project''', '''coder''', '''job size''', and '''coding schemes'''. '''Name''' the codingjob and click ‘Query’. The search results will be saved as coding job. |

| − | *Second, you can '''assign your search results as a codingjob directly'''. Specify the project, the coder and the coding schemes for the sentence- and article level (Unitschema and Articleschema). Name the codingjob, and, if your search resulted in an amount of articles that is too large for a single coding job, specify the job size. AmCAT then splits up the articles in a number of smaller jobs of that size (NOT randomly, but by article ID), that you can distribute among different coders later. See the '[[3.3:Create a codingjob|Create a codingjob]]' section for details. Click ‘Query’ to create the codingjob.
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''Note''': if the amount of articles you found with your search is too large to code manually, you might need to take a sample first before creating a coding job. If this is the case, save the results as an articleset first, '''[[3.3:Managing articlesets|draw a sample]]''' from this articleset, and then create one or more codingjobs from this sample.
| |
| | | | |
| | + | *Third, you can also '''save your search results as a new articleset'''. Select the '''project''', '''name''' the new articleset and click on ‘Query’. The new articleset wil be saved and can be found under the tabs ‘Articles’ and ‘Query’ on the top of the screen. |

| − | *'''Save as new set''', lastly, '''creates a new articleset from the search results'''.
