Created survey from feature service and the geopoint name field is causing error converting XLSForm

Question

Hi!

I am using Survey123 Connect version 3.25.  I created a survey from a feature service and it is giving me an error message stating, Error converting XLSForm.

When I open the XLSForm, and go to row 5 and click on the yellow triangle with the exclamation point next to the name field and select, Display Type Information, I get the below information in the image.

I think the overall issue is the character length.  It is showing that the field name must be less than 32 characters and the name created from the feature service, is right at 32 characters.

Since this was created from a feature service, if I change the field name up to shorten it, would that cause an issue when the survey is published and not write new point features to the service?  If so, then what is the recommended work around to fix this issue?  Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the input.  Shortening the name in the name field for the geopoint definitely allows the form to create now.  I still won't know if it has any affect on whether or not, when used, if it will still write to the feature service until I can publish the survey and test.  I should know by early next week if not sooner.  And will update this post with my results.

Goepoint goes to the shape field so I think you can change it fine.  It probably just defaulted to the layer name.  I would just try it and see.
