The XForms Dashboard offers a simple, aggregated view of all your submitted forms. You can filter by application and immediately see visual and numerical data on the forms for that project.
Tips and Best Practices
- Use the latest versions of Chrome, Safari, or MS Edge. Firefox also works but may have some issues. The XForms Dashboard does NOT work on Internet Explorer.
- If you encounter issues, try doing a browser hard refresh by holding down the CTRL key (Windows) or Shift key (Mac) and clicking on the refresh icon. You can also try running it in an incognito/private browser window, which will ignore saved cookies.
- If the PDF on the PDF screen looks wrong, click on the refresh icon to re-generate a new version.
- If you want to change your password, click on the person silhouette at the top right of the screen (not on your user record in Admin > Users)
- If you want to save an image from a form, go to the Forms screen, click on the gren camera icon, click on the photo thumbnail you want to view, right-click on it, and click on the Save Image As…menu option
