How to update existing data

[jamiluabk]

I already have the data on excel, is it possible to upload it on kobo toolbox and deploy the tool to help me update/validate the existing data?

Thank you

Hi @jamiluabk,

Welcome to the community! This feature at the moment is not available in KoBoToolbox. However you could do the same using python code as discussed in the earlier post:

Importing xls data into KoBoToolbox

@sareep, a while back have created a method for converting XLS data into XML with a Python script so that they can be submitted via the API. This requires an existing deployed form to be in your account. Everything is documented in this repository: https://github.com/kobotoolbox/xls-import. I hope this works for you.

Have a great day!
