Locating the names of renamed forms

Hi all,

ODK Collect gives the option of 'renaming' a completed form just before you
save it as finalised.

I have uploaded some form instances that were renamed in this way to ODK
aggregate. But now I'm having difficulty identifying what name the form
instance was saved under - I'm looking to identify the 'name' given in ODK
collect to each set of responses.

Has anyone got a suggestion of where to find this information once the form
has been uploaded to ODK aggregate?

Many thanks,

TLG

Hi TLG,

The renaming function in ODK Collect is only there to help enumerators
identify forms. Those names are not sent to ODK Aggregate.

One option to consider is using instanceName (see
http://opendatakit.org/2013/04/updated-odk-tools-released-versions-1-3-and-2-0-alpha/)
to automatically name your forms. Since instanceName is stored in the
form, it will be sent to ODK Aggregate.

Thanks,

Yaw
