Multiple images in a HIT with python API

Question

Hello,  
I am trying to create a HIT in MTurk using the python API. Let say a single HIT has 3 images. How would I modify the api call mturk.create_hit to replace the URL of the 3 images in my XML code? I believe the call is something like this:  
.....  
response = mturk.create_hit(**task_attributes,  
                                           Question = questions_xml.replace('${image_url}', ....))  
hit_type_id = response\['HIT']\['HITTypeId'] ....  
   
So basically, how would I change the 'Question' attribute to replace the 3 image_url?  
Thanks

Answer

Start by updating the task template captured in the questions_xml variable to include separate references to the three images you want to place there: ${image1_url}, ${image2_url}, and ${image3_url}. Then you can update your create step to replace all of the variables as shown below.  
  
Question = questions_xml.replace('${image1_url}', ....).replace('${image2_url}', ....).replace('${image3_url}', ....)

Thanks!
