Hi,
is it possible to get the value of the username (credentials from the kobo when the enumerator logs in) and use it to select a question in the form?
P.S we use computers for the data collection (not android)

Many thanks

@lazasoa, please be informed that Enketo does not support the username feature as the android app. Hence to use the same, you will need to use the android app.

Hi @lazasoa, I’ve just tested this with Enketo and it does work to access the username if you have checked this in your user settings:

You can see this in action with a simple form:

type name label
start start
end end
username username
note your_username your username is ${username}

Thanks for posting as this is incredibly helpful. Is it possible to also get the email address associated with that account similar to this Survey123 Article?
See: pulldata(“@property”, ‘email’)

I want to send a confirmation email to enumerators on a private form that only a small group will have access to without needing them to put their email in for every submission. I may just have their username pulldata from a csv that has their associated email, but just wondering if that step could be eliminated.

Thanks.
