KoboToolbox survey data as source for CartoDB?

Hi - has anyone used KoboToolbox survey data as a data source for CartoDB? I haven’t been able to connect to it via the CartoDB interface for connecting to new data. I would like to use CartoDB to aggregate points taken in different administrative units (e.g. states, provinces, regions, etc), but first I need to pull in my data to do it. Any ideas? I’m trying to account for token authentication as noted in the API docs (https://kc.kobotoolbox.org/api/v1/) and have registered the map I’d like to use the data with via the KoboToolbox “register a new application” form (https://kc.kobotoolbox.org/o/applications/register/), but clearly I’m not doing something right.

Any help appreciated - thanks!

Hi Toby,
You can use the collected GPS points in kobo for several applications amongst which CartDB. I have experimented somewhat with the free version and this works well. You first create your database in CartoDB and then generate a map.

Hi - thanks. But how do you add the data from Kobotoolbox to your CartoDB database? I haven’t been able to figure out how to do that.
