Q&A:
- From Nicole. Does this work in the web and mobile apps? Yes, but only while connected. pulldata("@layer") does not work when offline
- From Ronofre. Can I use pulldata("@layer") against an SDE layer? Yes, as long as you first share your SDE layer through an ArcGIS Enterprise map or feature service. If publishing as a map service, make sure the feature capability is activated.
- From Johnathan. Do I need to federate my ArcGIS Enterprise feature service for this to work? Unless your ArcGIS Enterprise feature service is shared publicly, yes.
- Tiffany: How does this work with domains? If you query a field with a domain, you will get back the code, not the description.
- Brenda: Can I use repeats in the web app? Yes. You must author your form in Connect, then use the form in the web app.
- Shawn: Can I count the records in a table using pulldata("@layer"). Yes. Demonstrated in video. However, you should not use that to create a unique number because if people complete the form concurrently, you will get duplicates.
- Marcelo: Where do I get Survey123 Connect? Download it from the Microsoft store. Alternatively you can get the installer from here.
- Stanley: This is blowing my mind!
- Pablo: Could you please share the Xlsform of this demo at the end of the presentation? Find it attached below.
- Alain: Can I get the PPT? Yes, attached below.
