A quick search did not yield any answers, so apologies if I missed a
solution.
We are using ODK to collect site data and even vehicle log sheets with ODK.
So that is working great. Thanks ODK team!
However I get requests from other people to help them set up more forms.
Typically our neighbourhood watch may want to log suspicious activity and
the baboon monitors have issued paper logs to track baboon activity. (The
paper logs seldom gets past the "fridge magnet" stage...)
For professional reasons, I cannot share the same server for a "public"
and a "private" profile.
My problem is trying to find a way to download and upload forms and data to
different servers from the same device. I.e, I want to upload a baboon
monitor form to server "X" and by day's end a site form to form to "Y." All
this without having to manually set servers before upload. It should be
fine to download form definitions from the same place, but not to upload it
there. Public users need access to public data only.
I have this idea in mind to start a central server for form definitions,
and two or more servers for submissions while the form definitions says
where a specific form should be submitted to. Of course the form
definitions should be on at least two servers.
is it possible to set this functionality in the form definition? I've read
about securing data, but still not sure if this is possible.

Thank you for the reply.
I did just what I planned.
It is working as I expected. I thought it will only work with encrypted
forms. Now I can add form definitions to one server and have it uploaded to
another. I should have done this from the start....
Solved
Thank you
