New Survey Feature: Google reCAPTCHA

By News, REDCap

The new Google reCAPTCHA feature can be enabled to help protect your Public Survey Links from abuse from ‘bots’, which are automated software programs that might enter trash data into your survey. A ‘captcha’ is a turing test to tell humans and bots apart. It is easy for humans to solve, but hard for bots and other malicious software to figure out. By enabling Google reCAPTCHA on your public survey, you can block automated software while helping welcome your survey participants to begin your survey with ease. The Google reCAPTCHA functionality can be enabled on the Public Survey Link page of your project, after which the Public Survey Link will display the reCAPTCHA checkbox and “I’m not a robot” text on a survey page prior to allowing the participant to view the public survey. Note: A survey participant will never have to pass the reCAPTCHA test more than once per day on a given device/computer. The new feature only works for Public Survey Links and not for custom survey links. Please contact REDCap Support with any questions.

By News, REDCap

Event: REDCap Scheduled Downtime and Upgrade

Date/Time:Monday, May 1st, 2023, 5PM-7PM

Website: https://redcap.uchicago.edu

Reason: An urgent upgrade to a newer version of the software is required to apply critical security fixes issued by REDCap.

Impact: REDCap will be unavailable during this downtime. Unavailability is further defined as:

  • Survey links will be inaccessible and will display a ‘REDCap is offline’ message when clicked on.
  • API activity will be halted until the upgrade is complete.
  • Mobile app users are strongly encouraged to sync any data on their devices back to their REDCap project before the upgrade begins. Although not encouraged, offline data collection may continue in the app during the upgrade, however the online sync process will not be available until the upgrade is complete.

Updates: As soon as the upgrade is complete, communication will go out confirming its completion, as well as details of the newest features and functionality which are also part of this upgrade.
