We’re excited about a new major release deployed to Global and EU KoboToolbox servers on 3 September at 20:35 UTC. Here are some of the highlights:
Attachments & File Management
-
You can now bulk delete attachments in the table view or delete individual files. Attachments then no longer count against storage limits.
-
Clear and consistent handling of deleted files across tables, views, galleries, exports, and submission modals.
Exports
-
Users can now create exports by date ranges to export only partial datasets, e.g. data submitted since a certain date or within a range.
-
To use this, open the Advanced Options toggle in Downloads. It looks up the submission time field
-
You can select one or more dates. If only one is selected it is treated as “greater than or equal to” or “less than or equal to” depending on whether it’s the start or end date.
Show Last Edited User in Project List
-
“Last edited by” field is now included for projects in the project list, with filtering and sorting supported.
-
The Project owner is now included in all project history logs (submissions, permissions, deployments, imports/exports, etc.)
-
The field is hidden by default but can be enabled through the “fields” button
Form previews
- Form previews through web forms now support microphone and geolocation widgets
