\usage{
export_redcap_instrument(data, file, force = FALSE, record.id = "record_id")
}
\arguments{
\item{data}{metadata for the relevant instrument.
Could be from `ds2dd_detailed()`}

\item{file}{destination file name.}

\item{force}{force instrument creation and ignore different form names by
just using the first.}

\item{record.id}{record id variable name. Default is 'record_id'.}

Metadata can be added by editing the data dictionary of a project in the
initial design phase. If you want to later add new instruments, this
function can be used to create (an) instrument(s) to add to a project in
production.
