Surveys Disappear/Missing Surveys

DanaThompson1

Over the past couple of days I've had a recurring issue with Survey123 . When I open Survey123 Connect, surveys that I haven't published aren't loading under the My Survey Designs page--whether I'm signed in to AGOL, my Enterprise or Signed Out altogether. If I create a new survey and back out without publishing, it disappears. I can see them in my My Survey Designs Folder on my computer (see below), but have no way to open the form. (Also, many of my surveys have been reassigned a strange Global-ID kind of code in the folder). Can anyone help? Editing fields and testing on my local machine is crucial and I would prefer not to publish prematurely.

Hi Dana, please try installing the 3.1 version of Survey123 Connect, which you can download from Survey123 for ArcGIS | ArcGIS

Hello @JamesTedrick

I just had what I think @DanaThompson1 Described. I had about 15 surveys in My Survey Designs, 8 of which are published and I can download to recover. The others were built/prepped/formatted in Survey123 Connect (3.11.123) to publish today and next week. They all just disappeared... We (Me and one of our IT personnel) searched my computer for the files (to see if I somehow moved/deleted). They are all just gone! I have tried the steps you state above with no luck.

1) Open Survey123 Connect

2) Click the gear icon in the lower left (Settings page)

3) Select 'Diagnostics'

4) Enable logging and then open the file folder

5) Exit the Settings page

6) Click in the list of Surveys and drag down to refresh the survey list?

One way to solve this is to close Survey123 Connect, rename the 'My Survey Designs' folder and then open Survey123 Connect. This will create a new folder that you can then copy your survey folders into. The folders with the GUID-type names are ones that have been downloaded from your ArcGIS Online/ArcGIS Enterprise account.

~~~

My co worker said this happened to her once about a year ago. Also, My IT person is wondering if there is a way to have Survey123 Map to a different folder. Is there a way to prevent this in the future? Trying not to get discouraged about losing a few weeks worth of work.

Thank you for the help!

Cheers,

Jessica

That did the trick, thank you!

Hello James,

I've tried the following suggestions, but still haven't gotten all the surveys to show up. Though for the first workaround, I'm a little confused between steps 4 and 5. Am I supposed to just close the file folder after opening it?

James,

But then I wind up with a My Survey Design folder looking like the attachment and having duplicate surveys showing up in Connect. Which one is then the authoritative one if I need to update again in the future? What happens if I delete the GUID-like folders?

Thanks,

Hi Gary,

Yes that's the expected behavior for downloading a survey from the web - because we are (relatively) sure that the item GUID will be unique, that is used as the directory ID to prevent possible overwriting on surveys that have the same name.

James,

I have had this happen when i use a different computer from the original one that the surveys were created on. When i open connect and attempt to update an existing survey, i get a message that the survey is not on this computer would i like to download it. This is when the GUID-type names are created.

Hi Dana,

There have had a few other people mention this, but haven't been able to reproduce it. Can I ask that you:

1) Open Survey123 Connect

2) Click the gear icon in the lower left (Settings page)

3) Select 'Diagnostics'

4) Enable logging and then open the file folder

5) Exit the Settings page

6) Click in the list of Surveys and drag down to refresh the survey list?
