Hi,

We have Patient Id, Name, Age, Sex in our database. I can generate and update data in a csv file.
Now, Is it possible that when a user enter Patient ID in a form kobotoolbox will search / Find corresponding Name, Age, Sex and show it in a “Note”

If possible, can u pls guide me through this.

Thanks

@asif_rahman_joy, you could do this through the pulldata function as discussed in the support article Pull Data Functionality in KoBoToolbox.

Wow… That’s Great!!
Another thing

  1. How large the csv file can be? Is there any limitation of no. of rows?
  2. Can I upload everyday with latest/updated data?

Thanks

It depends. The more row you have the slower it should be while loading the information to the form.
