How to identify the logged in user while editing survey after the survey is submitted on the server

User Support Data Management

Dear Team,

I am looking for away to identify the user logged in when editing a survey. To use this information to implement relevant column.

I am looking at a scenario when the data is already submitted on the server. So I am not looking at the username metadata that was picked while collecting the survey.

I would be glad to know how this can be achieved.

Thanks for the support

Welcome back to the community, @twesigye! Sorry, could you kindly re-elaborate on your issue (as it’s a bit unclear) so that we could better understand and help you out if it’s related to KoboToolbox?

Thank @Kal_Lam for the quick response.

To elaborate.

After surveys are submitted, I would like another user to add some information in a column that should only be visible if this user is signed in and not visible to other users.

Is this something possible? Being able to identify which user is signed in to edit the survey.

I hope it is clearer

@twesigye, seems like you are trying to fill up a form partially. Meaning enumerator 1 would be filling it up a section. Then enumerator 1 would submit. Then, enumerator 2 would be filling it up a section. Then enumerator 2 would submit.

Is this something you are trying to achieve? Feel free to correct me if I understood your issue differently?

@Kal_Lam thanks for the reply.

The first part of enumerator 1 is right.

For the second part, it is a bit different, enumerator 2 would be doing this online. Editing/updating the data that enumerator 1 submitted.

For enumerator 2, I would need to identify if they are the one logged in to be able to access their part to fill.

I hope you can understand me.
