Dear Open foris collect, Thank you very much for updating Arena. I know arena is being devoloped for the help of foresters. I am developing surveys for foresters who do survey and get analysis for their own purpose. It is not practicle to assign each user as adminstator or survey manager who are able to import and export data from arena. Data editor, cleanser or data analyst are not able to import and export the data from Arena. I want Arena to act as tool where surveyer are able to import collect mobile data or directly entering the data in the system and export the analysis independetly.This will help this tools' usability in my use case. Thank you in advance.

Dear Rajkumar,
Actually you are right. Since the Data Editor users can already create new records, they should be able even to import new ones importing data from Collect.
We will update Arena and let you know when a new version with this fix will be ready.
Many thanks for your suggestion, we really appreciate it.
