Unless delete-after-send is checked, all instances that were submitted successfully to the server will remain on the device until you manually delete them through the Delete Forms screen.
I have a follow-up question to this. Since the "delete-after-send" was introduced, are instances still saved in the instance folder on the tablet even after submission to aggregate?
I ask, because as a data back-up measure I often have team leaders back up the entire device "odk" folder onto a local machine. This is implemented when there is no reliable internet to submit finalized forms, as a safeguard to having a tablet damaged or stolen that hasn't had data uploaded.
Is this back up is backing up all instances since the start of data collection, or only since the last submission to the server.
Thanks.
No. This would be too confusing to explain.
The delete-after-send feature was only recently added. Leaving the sent forms on the device was the way everything worked originally. It enabled teams to copy those files off of the devices as a means to recover data should their servers die.
Hi,
is possibile to keep saved locally on my device a form that has been sent to the ODK aggregate server, so i could open it in a "READ ONLY" mode?
I noticed that we have a "Do not delete after sent" option but i tried to compile a test form, send it but no possibility to find the sent form.
Can you help me?
Thank you very much
Angelo
