Since the update of the app the dynamically linked data is not being updated anymore upon reload of the forms

Dear Kalyan,

first of all big kudos for the great work! Not only for the new app but for everything you are providing through KoboToolbox. It’s really a game changer for our projects.

Regarding the new app (which looks and feels great by the way) I would like to report a bug. At least I think it’s a bug and not expected behaviour:

We are using multiple surveys that are referencing each other or themselves through dynamic data attachments, basically for longitudinal analysis. Everything was working fine and still is when using Enketo.
However, since the update of the app the dynamically linked data is not being updated anymore upon reload of the forms. When I reset forms and data in the settings and then reload all forms from scratch, newly data is updated again correctly. So I do believe that there is a problem with the reloading of forms, where only the forms are reloaded but not the dynamically linked data.

Could you please have a look at it and let me know if this is indeed a bug or if I’m doing something wrong?

Thanks a bunch in advance!

Just reposting, because I forgot to tag @Kal_Lam in the previous one.

Welcome to the community, @Ole! Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Have you tried this with the XLSForm that has been shared in our support article:

Feel free to update so that we could investigate further.

Hi @Kal_Lam ,

apologies for the delay. I was in the field and didn’t get time to do the test that you requested.

I did it now:
The behaviour is exactly the same as described in my initial post. I.e., the dynamic data attachment (“Round 1 Survey” in the support article) only updates once I clear forms and data in the settings. Just forcing the update/reload of forms under “start new form” does not update the data and it’s not available in “Round 2 Survey”.

Hi @Kal_Lam ,

any update on this? Have you been able to reproduce the error?
