I want to add validate permissions to a user in my project and that check box is greyed out, along with the ‘edit and delete’ checkbox. How do I assign this survey manager the ability to edit and validate data entered by his team of enumerators, and only his team.
Hi @bobbowen,
Simply click the mouse to its periphery and the GRANT PERMISSIONS button should be activated.
Have a great day!
Hi @bobbowen,
Would you mind trying out the following as instructed below with the aid of an image:
- Type the user name as pointed 1 in the image.
- Type the same user name as pointed 2 in the image.
- Press GRANT PERMISSIONS (3).
- If you wish to add another user (for the same survey project) repeat the steps outlined above.
Please let us know if it worked out for you.
Have a great day!
OK, that does not work.
As soon as I add a user in part 2 above the 2 boxes for ‘edit and delete submissions’ and ‘validate submissions’ becomes greyed out and can not be selected. conversely, if i pre-select ‘validate submissions’ without selecting ‘view submissions only from specific users’ and can no longer select ‘view submissions only from specific users’ as it becomes greyed out.
I want to setup a user as a ‘supervisor’ for a group of enumerators so the supervisor can validate their submissions and only their submissions.
Hi @bobbowen,
Sorry to let you know that this KoBoToolbox does not support this feature at the moment. Would you mind dropping a new feature request here.
Have a great day!

I have the same issue (not possible to allow validation of only own data) and wonder whether the feature request hasn’t been addressed since then?
If “validate” is chosen, “only for certain users” is greyed out – or the other way round.
Hi @york_rff,
Kindly please be informed that validate submissions at the moment is not supported with row-level-permissions. However, it’s a work in progress feature. Maybe you could follow the same here:
