Unlock more possibility with our integrations
AskField makes it effortless to visualize data, generate reports, streamline processes, and produce better quality data—faster and more securely—with the external tools of your choice.

Easy data exports
Download your data in multiple formats to use with countless other tools, including widely used ones below.
AskField exports data in .csv format, which essentially all modern visualization and analysis platforms support. You can even use AskField Desktop to automatically merge new data into your local .csv files, so it's not a one-time export.
AskField is designed to be able to integrate with your workflow, no matter what data platforms you use.

Use a Microsoft Word mail merge template for AskField Desktop to "fill" each exported submission into a paper version of your form. Review individual submissions and generate custom assignment and tracking sheets.
