Problem making form available in KoBoToolbox

[janielenogueira]

Estou enfrentando um problema ao tentar disponibilizar (implantar/redistribuir) um formulário na plataforma KoBoToolbox.

Ao realizar a operação, o sistema apresenta a seguinte mensagem de erro:
“[linha: 28] Na planilha ‘opções’, o valor ‘nome’ é inválido. Os nomes das opções devem ser exclusivos para cada lista de opções. Se isso for intencional, use a configuração ‘permitir_opções_duplicadas’. Saiba mais: https://xlsform.org/#choice-names.”

Alguém pode me ajudar a resolver?

Besides, could you also let us know the total number of questions your form has? It could take time to load for your form if your questions are too long.
