# Annotations Overview

**Annotations** allow users to provide human feedback on LLM inputs and outputs through the Galileo Console UI and the [API](/api-reference/annotation/create-annotation-template).

Galileo supports annotations on Sessions, Traces, and Spans.

* The Messages page allows you to submit annotations, and highlights available annotations with a dot indicator.

* The Logs page allows you to view and export annotations as columns.

For each project, users with the necessary permissions can configure one or more of these annotation types:

* **Categories**: Enable annotators to select one or more designated categories
* **Score**: Enable annotators to select a number between 0 and a max score
* **Star**: Enable annotators to rate from 1 to 5 stars
* **Text**: Enable annotators to provide freeform text
* **Thumbs Up & Down**: Enable annotators to rate a like or dislike

The following roles have permissions to configure annotations: organization admins, project owners, or project editors.

The minimum permissions for creating annotations are: organization users, and project annotators. Read-only or viewer roles cannot submit annotations.

## Annotation Queues (Enterprise Beta)

Galileo's Annotation Queues enable teams to organize and scale human feedback by grouping project logs (sessions, traces, and spans) for structured review by subject-matter experts.
