Save data on table after sent finalized form

Hi,

I wonder if I can still save the data on my odk collect even though I sent the finalized form.

As far as I know, once I send the finalized form, the data disappeared from my ODK.

Thank you.

My knowledge of ODK is somewhat limited, but it is my understanding that the finalized form data is still on the tablet but no longer shows up in ODK Collect (this is intentional, and a good thing, I think).

By default all completed form data is saved in /sdcard/odk/instances/
You would just need a way to read/copy that data. Methods to do that would depend on your OS and technical expertise. One way to start would be to download one of the free file explorer apps for Android (I like ES File Explorer), open it, then navigate to /sdcard/odk/instances/
There, you should see all of your completed forms, regardless of whether they have been uploaded to the server or not.

Now what you end up doing with the form data is a little more complex, but hopefully this begins to answer your question (I'm happy to provide further help once you've made it to this point)

Colin is correct. Once the data is sent, ODK Collect does not expose
it in the UI to the user. This is by design.

It's pretty easy to change this in the code, but you will need a
programmer and a custom build of Collect.
