We are glad to inform you that with the recent release of new feature Dynamic Data Attachments (Case management) in KoBoToolbox, we have added a new support article Dynamic Data Attachments to our support page.
Will it ever be possible to share metadata, like today, from Parent to Child project?
After connecting two projects, if you add new fields to the Parent project that you want to use in the Child project, you have to re-import the Parent project in the Child project settings. Might be worth mentioning in support article, if not there already.
Another thing maybe to mention is that it’s possible for the Parent and Child project to be the same project.
For example, if the Child form is used everyday to survey the same person over the course of two weeks, you can link it to itself to count the number of forms that have been submitted previously for the same person.
One question. If I take the last example from this support article.
Is it possible to overwrite prefilled (from parent project) information in the child project questionnaire?
In this way, in case of errors submitted in the parent project the enumerators can still correct it in the child project questionnaire?
@Sven1, do you mean you want to load the information from a parent form tot he child form and update them in the child form if there is any updates for the information? If this is what you are looking for, please be informed that IT IS POSSIBLE.
I mean if you load f.e. an address in the child form from the parent project.
Is it possible to overwrite the address in the child form with a new address (let`s say the address has changed).
I read above here that it is possible to dynamically link your project to the same project.
In that case above question means that you can continuously update existing information using the same form. Correct?
