Accessing data files?

Hopefully this is a simple question. I successfully collected multiple forms (Balanced Scorecard from twine.unhcr.org) through ODK Collect and uploaded them to the formhub.org/webhis server. I received a message that the forms were successfully uploaded, but we have been unable to access the data from the server. Is there a way to re-access the files so they can be sent to an alternative tool such as KoBo? Any assistance much appreciated!

Hi David,

Formhub is no longer maintained and I'm surprised they still allow
submissions to come through. I'll see if I can get someone at Columbia
to turn off submissions.

As to your current issue, data in ODK Collect is stored in
/sdcard/odk/instances. The data remains there until they are
explicitly deleted.

I think the easiest thing to do is to copy the /odk folder off all the
devices and onto your computer. I like
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.fx for this.

Then use ODK Briefcase to pull that data from those folders and push
them wherever you need it to go (e.g., ODK Aggregate) or simply export
to CSV.

Hi David,

To add to Yaw's excellent instructions, if you do want to upload the data
to KoBoToolbox after you've copied them from your devices', you can put
them all into a zip file (subfolders within the file are OK) and then
upload them to your KoBo account. Here

are more details.
