kField Guide
Practical references for the three groups of people who use kField: field officers in the field, GIS operators on the desktop, and administrators on the cloud, plus reference material on roles and permissions.

Authoring and publishing projects from QGIS
Install the kField Sync plugin, prepare your QGIS project for the field, publish to kFieldCloud, and pull captured data back.

Connecting kField to your PostGIS database
Use organisation-level credentials so your QGIS projects can reach an on-prem or cloud-hosted PostGIS without hardcoding passwords in the project file.
