@anilgnydn, could you show this pictorially?

[anilgnydn]

This list belongs to parent project

This is formula that I wrote in child project

This is outcome

I want it to bring “Thérapie de groupe (Art therapy) / Art therapy” instead of “ART_THERAPHY” as you can see in the name and label column of the child project. Thanks

[Kal_Lam]

Thank you for bringing this to the discussion. We will have a look to see how this can be done within the system.

[anilgnydn]

Hi,

I have try the great function ‘Connect Projects’ with this tutorial : Dynamic Data Attachments — KoBoToolbox documentation
It’s work great.

It is possible to create a select_one in the child project with choice data come from the parent project ?
If in my parent project, I have a text question, with 2 soumissions : foo and bar.
In my child project, can I create a select_one list with foo and bar choices ?
If I submit a new text data in parent project : test, In my child project, I would have now 3 choices foo, bar and `test.

Thank

[Kal_Lam]

@jdugh, we will explore and update this if it’s possible within the system.

Something similar , i am also looking for…
This would completely solve external csv update problem… Like everytime csv is updated for choices…

Hope this can also be incorporated in the near future

Hi @Kal_Lam,
For make the “dynamic” list from a parent project data, maybe with a:
select_one ${question_name} can be possible ? (where question_name come from the parent project)

[Kal_Lam]

I think this approach is more appropriate in the current survey form that you are filling.

@Kal_Lam
Any update on this…I need this setup…will be very helpful

[vicks88]

Looking for this solution

Did you update your survey form in the KoBoCollect android app? Also please note that it could take some time to sync the details to the form.
