How do I use the pulldata calculation to pull values from a point layer into survey123?

FM5091

Hello,

I’m having trouble using the pulldata() function to retrieve values from a point feature layer in my Survey123 form. I’m using a geopoint question to select a location near the layer I want to query, but no values are being returned.

What is the correct approach for pulling attributes from a point feature layer using pulldata? If this is possible, could someone provide an example or outline the steps required to set this up?

Thank you for any guidance.

@FM5091 You can buffer a point location and capture points within that buffer. However if there are multiple points I believe it only will return one of them.

pulldata("@layer", "getRecordAt", "<url>?distance=1600&units=esriSRUnit_Foot", ${location})

There are other various way you can use the Rest API to query you feature layer:

Documentation says "The location specified in a spatial query must be a geopoint question." so no go on using a shape for the query.

These should get you started.

Thanks for sharing. Since the examples are for point‑in‑polygon, could you provide an example of querying a point feature using a GeoPoint or GeoSHP?

Thanks, I got it working!

Is there a way to return closest feature to the pulldata request or a way to get a picklist of all features intersected within the distance to make a selection from?
