python labelbox_label.py images/ export.json

where images/ contains my images that were annotations and export.json is the labelbox json export for those labelled images.

Get this error :

Found 5 datapoints.
Found 0 images.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "labelbox_label.py", line 24, in <module>
    classes.remove('START')
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list

Fixed one issue, I had .png in images instead of .jpg .

Still an error in output

Found 5 datapoints.
Found 5 images.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "labelbox_label.py", line 24, in <module>

ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list

I unfortunately wrote this script a very long time ago so Labelbox may have changed their output in the meantime. If there is no longer a start token in the output you can just remove this line :)
