Hello everyone,
We are excited to bring you another update in November, packed with bug fixes and some small improvements! Here’s a breakdown of what’s new in this release:
Improvements
More details for sessions
We improved the Activity Sessions page by adding new items to each session’s metadata dropdown: Triggering Logic ID, Triggering Logic Type, and Status.
Warning for session-based activities without expiry time
We added a warning under the Publish tab of the activity editor for session-based activities (excluding Time Use, Eligibility, and Dropout) that don’t have an expiry time set. This notice warns researchers that lacking an expiry could block new sessions, aiding better session management.
Bug Fixes
“Last response” for questions in looped sections
We fixed a bug affecting both Android and iOS apps where, if a question was skipped in the last loop iteration of a survey section, previous responses (if any) to that question in earlier iterations of the same loop were not considered as the “last response”. This fix ensures accurate criteria evaluation and proper use of survey question placeholders or other relevant placeholders.
Export file format for activity responses
We addressed a bug where the export format on the Data Export page was incorrectly listed as CSV for activity responses. It is now correctly set to ZIP for all types of activities.
Missing response files folder in survey responses export
We addressed an issue where exporting survey responses with media-based responses resulted in the export containing only the CSV file without the accompanying response files folder. Additionally, we improved the CSV file for survey responses by renaming the media-based response file path column to “Response File Local Relative Path”.
Accessing the eligibility survey
We fixed an issue in the participant web app where non-registered participants attempting to join a study with an eligibility survey encountered an error, preventing the survey from being displayed.
Inconsistent session status colors
We updated session status colors on the Activity Sessions page of the researcher dashboard to match the Participation and Activity Responses pages.
Incorrect error message for incorrect current password
We fixed an issue where participants attempting to change their password received a generic “Something went wrong” error when entering a wrong current password.
Hint text in Audio/Text questions
We fixed a bug in the participant web app where the hint text for the text input of the Audio/Text questions was not displayed to participants while responding to the survey.
Multiline text in Audio/Text questions
We resolved an issue in the participant web app where the text field for Audio/Text questions was incorrectly displayed as multiline, irrespective of the question’s Type property.
Visibility of default value in Number, Length, and Mass questions
We fixed a bug in the participant web app where the default value for Number, Length, and Mass questions were visible to participants while taking the survey.
Creating multiple User triggering logics
We addressed an issue where researchers could create more than one User triggering logic in an activity.
Save button for User and Proximity triggering logics
We resolved an issue with the Save button not functioning correctly when creating or editing User and Proximity triggering logics in an activity editor.
RSSI filter activation in Proximity triggering logics
We fixed a bug where creating or editing a Proximity triggering logic with the RSSI filter enabled and the minimum RSSI value set to default (-512) resulted in the filter not being activated. As part of this, we changed the flow and now, the number input for the minimum RSSI value is mandatory and there’s no toggle to enable/disable it.
