Connect KoboToolbox to your AI agent

Productivity 9 actions available

KoboToolbox is a data collection platform for building forms, managing survey projects, collecting submissions, and exporting humanitarian and research data.

We set up the connection using your own KoboToolbox account, with keys you control, and keep it running. Your agent picks it up and starts doing the work.

What your agent can do in KoboToolbox

Each one is a real action the agent can take on its own, the same things a person clicking around KoboToolbox could do. Read-only by default; write actions are confirmed against your policy.

  • Create Project Create a draft survey project, optionally by cloning an existing KoboToolbox asset.
  • Delete Export Delete one asynchronous export job from a KoboToolbox project.
  • Delete Project Permanently delete one KoboToolbox project by UID.
  • Deploy Project Deploy a draft KoboToolbox survey or redeploy its latest form version so it can accept and expose submissions.
  • Export Submissions Create an asynchronous KoboToolbox submission export and wait for it to complete, returning the export UID and result URL.
  • Get Project Retrieve a KoboToolbox project with its form content, settings, resource URLs, and deployment state.
  • Get Submission Retrieve one submission by integer ID, root UUID, or submission UUID from a KoboToolbox project.
  • List Assets Find projects and other visible assets in the connected KoboToolbox account, returning one page and a continuation cursor.
  • List Submissions Read one page of submissions for a deployed KoboToolbox project, with optional field selection, filtering, and sorting.

How we connect it

  1. 1

    Connect your account

    You create a key in KoboToolbox, a key you create and control, and paste it in once. It lives in a secrets store on your server, not with us.

  2. 2

    Set the guardrails

    Read-only by default. You choose which write actions the agent may take, and anything outside that policy gets confirmed with you first.

  3. 3

    We keep it running

    Health checks on every connection, updates handled for you, and we watch the first week of activity to make sure the work lands.

KoboToolbox questions, answered.

With a key you create and control. You paste it in once, it is stored in a secrets store on your server, permissions are scoped to the minimum the agent needs, and you can revoke it at any time.
The actions KoboToolbox's API allows, the same things a person clicking around the app could do. Connections start read-only by default; write actions are confirmed against the policy you set before the agent takes them.
Connections are priced per tool on top of the base plan. Some are included, some are premium. See pricing for how connection charges work.
Standard tools are ready inside 7 business days of the setup call. We test the connection end to end, walk you through how the agent uses it, and watch the first week of activity.
