How to restart collecting data after having a few testing submissions

User Support Data Management

Hi Kobo community,

I have deployed my form for testing the questionnaire. I have a few submissions which are not needed because I was just testing it before the real data collection. Is there any way to redeploy the form with no previous submissions? I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks

You could do this by deleting the records that is available in the server as outlined in the post discussed previously (and then start a fresh survey):

Our support article Editing or Deleting a Single Submission should also solve your issue.

Hi @Chanleap
In addition to what @Kal_Lam has recommended, you can also create a new project and archive the old one to ensure that you have good version control of your data.
