Bulk Form Action API: Archive and Delete Forms in Bulk

The new Bulk Form Action API lets you archive or delete up to 5,000 forms with a single API request, and unarchive forms you archived earlier. Each request starts a background job, and the API gives you a status link to follow the job until it finishes. Read more in the Bulk Form Action API documentation.

Page-aware answers from the CommCare Companion

The CommCare Companion, the AI assistant in CommCare HQ, now uses the page you are working on to answer your questions. Starting with the App Builder pages, the Companion receives the page you are on, your project space, and your role, so its answers match what you are looking at.

CommCare Data Export Tool 1.16.0: Export to Data Lakes

Version 1.16.0 of the CommCare Data Export Tool can export your CommCare data as Delta Lake tables, which Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, and Azure Synapse can read directly, so teams that analyze data in those platforms can keep their CommCare data up to date there on a schedule.

The new Bulk Form Action API lets you archive or delete up to 5,000 forms with a single API request, and unarchive forms you archived earlier. Each request starts a background job, and the API gives you a status link to follow the job until it finishes. Read more in the Bulk Form Action API documentation.

What’s included

  • Archive forms in bulk: Archiving hides forms from reports and exports and updates the cases those forms changed, and the unarchive action reverses the archiving.
  • Delete forms in bulk: Deleting permanently removes forms that have already been archived and cannot be undone, so you archive forms in one request and delete them in a second request.
  • Up to 5,000 forms per request: Each request accepts up to 5,000 form IDs, and larger sets can be sent as several requests.
  • Clear job results: The status link shows whether a job is pending, running, complete, or failed, how many forms succeeded, and which forms were skipped and why.

CommCare Data Export Tool 1.16.0: Export to Data Lakes

Screenshot: CommCare Data Export Tool 1.16.0: Export to Data Lakes

Version 1.16.0 of the CommCare Data Export Tool can export your CommCare data as Delta Lake tables, which Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, and Azure Synapse can read directly, so teams that analyze data in those platforms can keep their CommCare data up to date there on a schedule. Delta Lake export requires installing the Data Export Tool with pip, because the pre-built Windows executable does not include it. Setup steps are in the Export to a Data Lake section of the CommCare Data Export Tool wiki page, and the full list of changes is in the Data Export Tool changelog.

What’s included

  • Delta Lake output: The Data Export Tool writes each table in your query file as a Delta Lake table in cloud storage, such as Azure or Amazon S3, or in a local folder.
  • Rows updated in place: Each run updates existing rows and adds new ones, matching rows by their id column, so every table in your query file needs an id column.
  • Only new and changed data: When you give the Data Export Tool a checkpoint database, which can be a single SQLite file, each run exports only the data that changed since the last successful run. Without a checkpoint database, every run starts the export over from the beginning.
  • Faster SQL exports: Exports to SQL databases are now faster and use less memory.
  • Python support: The Data Export Tool now supports Python 3.14 and no longer supports Python 3.9.

Public Webforms

Let anyone fill out your form, no CommCare account needed.

People registering through a form on a screen with a QR code

Public Webforms let people outside your project fill out a registration or survey form from your CommCare app in a web browser. A clinic can put a QR code in its waiting room so patients can register themselves, or a program can send a feedback survey link to the people it serves.

How it works

  1. PublishPublish a registration or survey form to a public link.
  2. ShareShare the link or its QR code by email, text message, on a website or on a printed poster.
  3. RespondEach respondent requests a one-time link by email or text message, good for one submission.
  4. CollectEvery submission saves to your project, and each registration creates a new case.
  • You choose when a form stops accepting responses, and you can close or reopen it at any time.

2026 priority: an app library

Template Application Library

Start from a proven app, not a blank canvas.

With smaller teams, starting from a blank canvas can limit what organizations take on. The Template Application Library gives you proven, customizable foundations, so it’s faster to build new apps and start new use cases without rebuilding from scratch.

How it works

  • Browse ready-made apps, built by Dimagi, right in CommCare HQ.
  • Templates are organized by sector, and each one describes what the app does.
  • Copy a template into your project and customize it for your program.
  • Use templates to learn CommCare, start a new use case, or speed up an existing program.

2026 priority: a new data pipeline

Next-generation data pipeline

Act on your data in the tools you already use.

As your data grows, you need CommCare to work with your reporting tools and data warehouses. The CommCare Data Pipeline automatically and continuously mirrors your CommCare data into a standard database, giving you a real-time, analysis-ready copy without manual exports. It is also the foundation for a secure, AI-powered experience with your data.

What it gives you

  • A live copy of your data that stays up to date on its own, with no manual exports.
  • Connect reporting tools such as Power BI or Tableau straight to it.
  • Full control of your data for long-term warehousing and advanced analysis, while CommCare itself stays fast.
  • Individuals and small teams can install it as an app on Windows, Mac or Linux.
