Remember last entry option in Survey123

Anonymous User

Hello,

I am new to Survey123 and was wondering if its possible to have an option to "Remember Last Answer" or just to pre-populate a field with the answer of a previous survey. In my example, people will completing an inspection multiple times and thus entering their name over and over again can be rather tedious. I am looking for a solution that can allow the form to either remember the previous answer to this one question or how to populate the field with the answer from the previous survey. They will also need the ability to cancel the default and enter a new name if the default does not match.

pulldata("@property", 'userFullName') will not work because the signed in user account is a general account that many staff have access too.

Thanks

I have been trying to get this option for a few years but no luck so far. You can get the values to show in a different field but not the same. Did get it working in javascript but its more advanced.

You should be able to use the "Favorite Answers" feature for this. 🙂

Hi Doug,

I have seen your previous posts on this same issue... I hoped there may have been a solution by now but nothing yet.

Anyways I think I am going to try to implement your solution. Just one question.. for the pulldata calculation.. does this calculation go in line with the select_one type or the repeat type?

Hi Katherine,

Thanks for your reply, I thought of this too. I may still go this route but I would have to properly train the staff to remember to clear and then re add favorites.

Not sure which option you mean but the javascript pull is into a field.

That clarifies it.

In this post https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/prepopulate-answers-in-a-repeat-with-last-values/m-p/1093928

you refer to "current repeat number here". is that repeat number just how many times you want the answer repeated or the number in my list of answers that I wanted repeated?
