Seed and Randomize: whats that preventing to deploy my form

Hello @Kal_Lam

Error: seed value must be a number or a reference to another field.

Error: Parameters must include randomize=true to use a seed.

Note:
I am still having the same recurring issue in Kobo about the dropdown settings working inconsistently

I was able to successfully redeploy the updated Y Sruvey using the settings: Other-autocomplete; seed -1

For x Suervey , the same updated lists with the same exact settings (Other-autocomplete; seed -1) resulted in the error “Parameters: Randomize must = true to use a seed” and I cannot deploy them as is.

Again, this happens over and over again and sometimes (seemingly randomly) will work and deploy but most of the time does not (Again all using the same exact settings and confirming that is why it is not deploying using the XLS verification website). It’s important we get to the bottom of this as it has been a consistent problem throughout all survey creation.
