I'm very intrigued about this. I see a lot of users consuming Aggregate exports instead of using Briefcase exports, which are much better suited for forms with repeat groups, etc. I would love to know the rationale behind the decision of using Aggregate instead of Briefcase. Is it maybe the web API? What is that that Aggregate has and Briefcase lacks?

Hi @ggalmazor,
I'm not talking about repeat groups but grouping questions (begin-end group).
When you export (also in Briefcase) the name of the column is not simply the variable name, but it contains the group it belongs to in the name.
If you for example look at the attachment for me a variable name is Id10003, Id10004 etc, but as these variable are inside group presets in the xlsform then the column name get the name presets-Id10003, presets-Id10004.
And you can see long variable names when you have a complex form with group within groups.
Hope now I'm clearer.

Thanks
