I ended up unregistering the entire dataset, which cleared out the entire history. The tool seemed to work fine, but unregistering really got things moving fast again. I re-registered as branch versioned and plan to incorporate that pruning tool in my workflows where I have Python scripts that batch update data.

What about Utility Networks? Same situation?

It's me! Hi! I'm the horror story! (Hmm, sounds like a Taylor Swift song..)

If this isn't the answer, I will be shocked! David, I cannot thank you enough. I'll run this late tonight when I can get an exclusive lock and then plan to get your mailing address and shower you with gifts.

I've already got an Esri support ticket in on this, but thought I'd touch base with the hive mind... I've got a branch versioned line feature class that I regularly update with information about inspections (I'm oversimplifying here, but stick with me.) Every night, a Python script accesses the published editing service, selects the affected lines, and updates a field with the new data from the most recent inspection. Very simple, right? Select by attributes and field calc. Over time, these scripts have gotten slower and slower, to the point where what once took a few minutes now takes hours to complete. So I did a little digging. Last night, I decided to open the line feature class attribute table in SQL Server Management Studio so that I could see the hidden fields that are used by branch versioning. If you look at the feature class in Pro, there are 23,099 lines. In SSMS, there are 1,891,728 rows in the table! My theory is that using Python to batch update on Default is somehow failing to trigger the "trim" functionality built into branch versioning and that all of those edits are building up over time even though I don't see them in Pro. Has anyone else seen similar behavior?

I don't use edit mode because I don't always want to take the suggestions. I like being able to tinker and experiment based on the recommendations.

I bet that's the difference. I tried to deploy S123 in our Enterprise environment, but no one at Esri could figure out how to get it to work on a multi-machine deployment. I kept getting crytpic error messages during the setup process that no one could figure out. I finally gave up and decided to just use S123 in ArcGIS Online. I bet there is a permissions or access issue where ArcGIS Online does not know how to interpret user-managed Enterprise services. Maybe I'll try to deploy S123 in Enterprise when we upgrade to 11.5.

@HannesVogel - what version of Enterprise and S123 Connect? Maybe it doesn't work because we're on Enterprise 11.3. And do you have S123 installed on your Enterprise deployment? I'm using ArcGIS Online.

@HannesVogel - Esri tech support confirmed today that it does not work with Enterprise user-managed feature services. They logged an enhancement request for me: Defect #: ENH-000179151 Synopsis : Add non-hosted layer types as an option when using pulldata/dynamic choice lists in ArcGIS Survey123 Connect

Mystery solved. This only works with a hosted feature service, and I was using a user-managed service from my Portal.

Hi Andrew! Yes, I still have many dedicated services. Branch-versioned editing services are required to use dedicated instances, and I also have some services that do not respond adequately to increases in usage. I've been using this tool to get recommendations on how to tweak the instance pooling to make the user experience better.

@MarieCline_Delgado I've had the same issue since I upgraded. I miss that tool so much! Hoping to hear of a solution.

OK, then I've got that formatted correctly. I guess I'll just have to put in a help desk ticket because everything matches and I'm still not getting any results.

Oh yes, that's right. I forgot it was in the Choices tab. I double-checked my entry to make sure that I had the field name right, and it matches my service. Still no choices showing in the drop-down menu on the survey form.

Thanks, Christopher! This was a really helpful post that clarified a lot of my confusion. Do you know if the sharing settings on the service or the service type makes a difference? I'm trying to use a user-managed feature layer that is pulling data from a registered enterprise database. The layer is shared to a group, and the user that I'm using for the form is a member of that group. I don't get any error messages when I save, but the list is still empty. One thing I wonder: how will Survey123 know which field to pull data from if I am only referencing the layer in the service?
