UBC ARC REDCap Upgrade

The UBC ARC REDCap Flex platform was last upgraded on February 25, 2025. This update includes several new features and improvements, including:  

  • Descriptive Popups

    • Custom popups of text that become visible after hovering over a specific word or phrase on a data entry form or survey. Descriptive popups are a way to convey extra information on a form or survey without the text taking up space on the page.

  • Draft Preview Mode

    • Allows users to preview their data entry forms with drafted changes as if they were live. This enables full testing of branching logic, calculations, action tags, and embedded fields before submitting changes for approval.
