Error message when implementing a form

Unexpected KoBoCAT error 400: b’{“detail”:"The name column for the ‘ty25a53’ choice list contains these duplicates: ‘otro__especifique’. Duplicate names will be impossible to identify in analysis unless a previous value in a cascading select differentiates them. If this is intentional, you can set the allow choice duplicates setting to ‘yes’. Learn more: XLSForm.org}’

Buenas tardes, este mensaje al momento de implementar un formulario. alguien puede ayudarme?

Welcome to the community, @marce-15120! The error message says that you have a duplicate in your choices tab under the column name ty25a53. To identify it you will need to do the following:

  • Download your xlsform
  • Go to the choices tab
  • Search for ty25a53 and then under the same, you will need to see if some values have been repeated

The best option to check for syntax issues is by validating your xlsform through the online validator. The online validator should be able to identify syntax issue for you which you will then need to fix it.
