Hi,  I was wonder if there was a way to have a numeric field on Survey 123 show up as currency for the end user filling out the form? For instance, we collect a lot of tax data, and once the reported numbers begin to get larger than a thousand, it can be very difficult for the end user to double check their work. Even if it doesn't add the dollar sign, it it possible to have a least the thousand separator present in numeric fields? Thanks! ... View more

Hi,  We have made a rather long survey that we are asking participants to use this year when filling out their annual report. The users are external to our organization so they do not have ArcOnline user names or passwords. Therefore we will be sending them a url to the public survey that they can access and complete on the Survey123 Online platform. As this is a rather long survey, they may not have the time/patience to complete it all in one sitting. As non-member users who willing be completing this survey online, is there any way they can save their progress/draft and return to the survey/url at a later date? Essentially, is there a Drafts functionality when completing a survey online? Thanks!  ... View more

Hi there,  I'm wondering if it's at all possible to have multiple external select lists in one survey built in Connect. For instance I'm building a survey that has two select one questions with many options. The first would be to choose a school district and then have the external select only pull those schools in that district (instead of a list of all the schools), and secondly I want users to choose a Language Family and then select the specific languages that are within that family.  Normally for external selects there is a new tab in the Excel workbook called "External Choices", but if I need more then one set of external choices, where should those go? If I put them all on the same tab they don't seem to work as they're only reading the column header for one.  Any ideas on how to accomplish this or whether or not this is even possible? Thanks! -Grace ... View more

I'm still fairly new when it comes to publishing surveys to Portal on our Enterprise server, but have successfully published one or two very simple surveys that can be accessed publicly through online. In this process I made the feature class first, published it to our server and then created a New Survey from a Feature Class in Connect. I did not add any choices, or select statements and left the format as it was from the simple feature service. This published well and as long as it is public, there has been no problem with people submitting surveys outside our organization.  I currently built a new survey, in the same manner - first setting up the feature class and publishing that to the server - but when I went to make a survey in Connect, I changed text fields to select_ones and have included at least 6 different choice fields. Publishing it onto our Portal was not a problem. This survey operated well in all environments once it was published (online, Connect and the Survey 123 desktop application). The problem is that no one can submit any data. When attempting to submit online the error message simply reads, "Failed to Submit" and when I connect to Portal on the Survey 123 app, I get an Error Code 500, Unable to complete operation (see image). The feature service is public and available to everyone, and the survey is set that everyone will be able to submit.  What am I missing that would not allow people (from within or outside of the organization) submit their entries? I imagine if there was incompatibility between the feature class and the survey design, I'd get an error at publishing, but I don't. Please let me know if there is anything else I can provide to help. Thanks as always!! ... View more

I'm having difficulty getting Cascading Selects to work on a survey after it's been published and shared online. The survey was made in Connect and works well in both the Connect environment as well as the Survey 123 Desktop application, but once it gets published online the cascading selects appear corrupted and they cannot actually be chosen from the list (the appearance type is autocomplete). They also have the message "static_instance" and read the list_name, name, and label from the xlsx. form. Originally the labels for these choices had special characters, so I eliminated those in the event that was causing the problem, but I'm still seeing errors. When you try to submit your survey in the online environment, you get the error: "String or binary data would be truncated. The statement has been terminated".  I've tried publishing this survey with just cascading select, but also with Cascading Select and External Select. Neither time it works.  I have published surveys from Connect before with Cascading and External Selects and have had no problem with functionality. This is the first time I have ever seen this error. I'm attaching some screen shots as well as the xlxs. form that the survey was made in if that helps.  ... View more
