How can I import CSV data into an already registered survey? I saw only formats: Collect Survey (.collect) Collect Backup (.collect-backup), Collect Earth (.cep) or Collect Survey XML (.xml). Are there other formats available like CVS, txt ou XLSX?

Dear user,
First of all, once you have defined all the variables (attributes) of your survey, or at least most of them, you have to Publish the survey.
Once published, you have to select it from the top right dropdown and then you should be able to access the Data Management section, where you will see the list of records (empty at the beginning).
There you will have the possibility to Import data from Excel/CSV files using the button in the top bar.
Many thanks,
