Restricting Form Access to Specific Email Recipients While Keeping Responses Anonymous

[lomony]

Hello KoBoToolbox Community,

I would like to restrict access to my form so that only specific email recipients (those I invite) can submit responses. However, I also need to ensure that all responses remain anonymous, meaning that no personally identifiable information is collected or linked to the respondents.

Is there a way to configure this within KoBoToolbox? If so, could you please guide me through the necessary form design settings or alternative solutions?

I appreciate any insights or advice on this!

Thank you.

Best,
Lomony

Welcome to the community, @lomony! Maybe you could use this approach (by using the pulldata function) to restrict submissions that has been discussed previously:

@rameshpradhan, maybe you could do it as outlined in the image shared below: In the survey tab of your XLSForm: [Image 1] The CSV file: [Image 2] Data entry screen as seen in Enketo: when a wrong password is entered [Image 3] Data entry screen as seen in Enketo: when a correct password is entered [Image 4] Reference XLSForm: Pull Data (Check Password to Proceed Survey).xls (29 KB) Reference CSV File: Codes.csv (136 Bytes)
