KoboToolbox

Let your agent look up KoboToolbox projects and submissions during a call.

Connect KoboToolbox to AgentCalls and your agent can find survey projects, check whether a form is live, and look up individual submissions while it talks to a caller. It can also start an export when someone asks for the latest responses. The agent works with the tools you have already connected, using your own KoboToolbox credentials from its settings, so only the actions you allow are available on a call.

What your agent can do with KoboToolbox

  • Find survey projects and visible assets in your KoboToolbox account by name
  • Check whether a project is deployed and can accept submissions
  • Look up a single submission by its ID so a caller can confirm what they sent
  • Start a submission export and send the result link to the caller or your team
  • Create a draft project by cloning an existing form for a new survey

KoboToolbox exposes 9 actions. You choose which ones the agent may use and whether each runs during or after the call.

Example calls

Caller asks whether their survey was received

  1. Caller

    Hi, I filled in the community health survey last Tuesday but I never got a confirmation. Can you check it went through?

  2. Agent

    Sure, I can look that up. Do you have the submission reference number from the confirmation email, or the date and village name you used?

  3. Caller

    The village was Harlow Green, and it was around 3 pm on the 14th.

  4. Agent

    Thanks. I found a submission from Harlow Green on the 14th at 3:12 pm, and it is marked complete. Your response was received.

Field coordinator checks if the new form is live

  1. Caller

    Is the water access survey open yet? We were supposed to start collecting today.

  2. Agent

    Let me check the project for you. The water access survey was deployed this morning and it is accepting submissions.

  3. Caller

    Great. Can you send me the link to the latest responses?

  4. Agent

    I have started an export of all submissions so far. I will text you the download link as soon as it is ready, usually within a minute.

Outbound follow-up on a draft survey

  1. Agent

    Hello, this is calling from the research team. We created a draft of the household income survey last week and wanted to confirm it is ready to go live.

  2. Caller

    Not yet, we still need to review two questions on the consent section.

  3. Agent

    No problem. I will leave it as a draft. I will call back Thursday morning to check whether it can be deployed.
