# Relations

The `relations` object is part of the [`task`](/data/importing-and-exporting-annotations/exporting-annotations/ango-export-format/asset/task.md) object in the Ango Annotation Format. It contains all data pertaining to labels created with *relations*, e.g. not tools, classifications, or brushes.

## General Structure

{% code fullWidth="true" %}

```json
"relations" : [
    {
        from // string, only in single relations, objectID of the object from where the relation starts
        to // string, only in single relations, objectID of the object where the relation stops
        objectId // string, ID of the relation
        schemaId, // string, ID of the relation class in the project
        group // list, only in group relation, the objectIDs of the objects present in the relation
        direction, // string, only in single relations, one of straight, reverse, bidirectional.
        classifications, // list, nested classifications answered on the relation
        title // string, title of the relation class
        page // int, optional, if asset is multi-frame (video, TIFF, DICOM) frame where the relation takes place
    },
    { ... }
