Get data collector name

Support

Hi - Is there a way of adding the data collector's login username to
the metadata? I will have a large enumerator team who might not get
the same input device each day.

Jaideep,

The easiest way to accomplish this today is to have a username as part
of the form. Depending on how big of a list, maybe a select one? If
you are worried about data collectors picking each other's names, you
can add (or substitue the username for) a unique and secret PIN that
each collector has to enter.

We will be adding this sort of metadata as we transition to full
compliance with the OpenRosa 1.1 spec.
