Hi!! Since a couple of days ago, when I try to “redeploy” a form, all previous pull data files uploaded in the media category will fail to be loaded onto the form. I do not change the calculation column, nor the pull data files, and still this happens.
Steps to Reproduce
Deploy a form normally, with pull data files attached.
2.Redeploy the form, not modifying the files. These will fail to load on the form.
3.To fix it, you have to delete all files, redeploy, then attach the files, then redeploy again.
Additional details
I think this happened some months ago too. But it was fixed at the time.
I have been experiencing the same problem, it started on the 19th and still struggling to refresh data using Power Query, including automated updates through Power BI.
It sounds frustrating to deal with that redeploy issue! Thanks for detailing the steps to reproduce the problem; it really helps in diagnosing the issue. Hopefully, the team can look into this quickly and provide a fix, especially since it’s a recurring problem. Your workaround is helpful, but it’s definitely not ideal. Appreciate you bringing this to attention!
I have managed to get the API V2 link using the Kobo form Fetcher. It however does not show validation timestamp and the person responsible for validating each record. https://myooo.shinyapps.io/kobotoolbox_api_v2/
