Survey Sharing

After a form is deployed, it must be shared with all users

To Share:

  1. Create a username and an associated email. Accounts should be created with an admin email to update passwords, but a user must have a valid email to validate their forms.

  2. Store Usernames in db list craft_v2_main > users table

  3. In Kobo, go to Form settings a select “Share”

  4. add new user with the following permissions:

    1. Add Submission

    2. Edit Submissions based on a condition

      1. Condition = loweremail

      2. Email = that user’s email in the craft_v2_main table

You can also use web forms for collecting data on your mobile devices - even if you’re offline at the time of data collection. You just need to pull up the form first, and save the form first, so it lives in your cache. For more information

You’ll always use Enketo web forms if you’re not using the KoboCollect or ODK Collect apps on an Android device for data collection.
