To download data, you'll first need to sign in to Labfront. Then from your Workspace, choose a Live project. Click
Download Data on the top right of the dashboard This will generate a single zip file to download which contains all of the data available for this project including tasks, surveys, and physiological data from participants' wearables from the start of your study.


Note
While it will be available in later versions of Labfront, there is no way to filter the data download by specific time periods in this current Labfront version.
Data is only available for Live projects and with invited participants who have signed in through the Labfront Companion app and are contributing data by completing tasks, questionnaires, or providing physiological data from their wearable.
To ensure that participants have successfully signed in to your project, please check the Participants section on the Dashboard and make sure that you have at least 1 participant signed in. For each participant, you can also check that the Invite Code is Used and the Status is Joined.
