Survey123 without geopoint

Question

Hi,

This is a simple query that I can't seem to find an answer to by searching.

Is there any problem with publishing a Survey123 form that does not have a geopoint question on the form, but one which should record coordinates to a feature service? If so, when are these coordinates recorded: at the location that the form is opened or at the location that it is submitted?

Thanks for any insight.

So as the form opens.

Great - many thanks for clearing that up for me James.

Hi,

When a form does not have a geopoint question on it but is attached to a point layer, the Survey123 field app will capture a location when the form opens.  The Survey123 web application will instead capture 0,0 - the difference is based on the different user scenarios (field collection vs web forms).
