Shwu-jing Jeng, Yes, I am enrolled in the EAC program, and appreciate the reference..  I had a geonet credential hiccup when I last searched for the Early Adopter content...  That happens sometimes.. the ESRI global acct vs one of my existing AGOL org accounts..   thanks for the tip and I'll look forward to 3.10's release...  not a chance that adding the map="my favorite basemap" into the XLSform will work in 3.9.120  ? thanks very much; take care! brian ...

Hello Levi, Please forgive if you've already tried this step, but have you tried opening Survey123 Connect then going immediately to> Settings >> Map and specifying your basemap of choice, then select Publish (overwriting existing service)?   I've noticed that if I navigated away from the Map settings before I re-published my survey, the base map setting would revert back to another basemap style.     I was using this in Connect version 3.8 (I believe) but i've since upgraded to Connect 3.9.120  (still follow the same workflow though...) hope that helps, brian ...

Hello Shwu-jing Jeng, I'm currently using version 3.9.120 of Survey Connect and I wonder when other ESRI basemaps will be supported as DEFAULT base maps when a survey form is opened within a web browser?  I have already added additional, Custom web maps within the Connect Settings tab "LInked Content".. and end-users can switch to those basemaps, but new users seldom do so...  It's close to what I need, but I'd really like to specify one of the Linked Content URL's as the default basemap..   If nothing else, could we add World Imagery - Hybrid to the choices? So, I wondered if I can set the default basemap within the XLSform <geopoint> attributes?  Have I missed this feature within the help docs? thanks very much! brian ... View more

Thanks again for your time, effort and sharing your knowledge with the community! This worked for me but I wondered if Arcade now performs coordinate conversions?  I've not found much information,yet, but I'm glad I stumbled upon your example! thanks Xander! ... View more

James, Thank you for replying to my comment.     I have been unable to view/capture any other error messages from my iphone Survey123 Diagnostics console on my desktop AppStudio install.. I must be doing something wrong because I was able to connect to my desktop from my iPhone5s...  The JSON/javascript function will be helpful in the future and I will continue development and consider using it..  at the moment, I've determined another solution that works fine after the survey point has been submitted.. thanks much for listening and the continued improvements/demonstrations with Survey123. if there are any tips/tricks/blog posts regarding the use of the diagnostic features within QT/AppStudio/Survey123 then I'd love to know where I may find them.. I hesitate to complain because I just know it's out there, somewhere...already.. ha! best, brian ... View more

Hello James/Elias, I'm having partial success using the WeatherData.js Example from the Early Adopters - Survey123 -custom JavaScript functions.  I was able to get a simple example to work just fine and it's uses the geopoint to submit an xmlhttp request to the openweather.org api and returns JSON..  Once I tried moving the sample into my production survey, no love was found... I've updated my XLSform version, followed the sample setup and therefore the same javascript file stored in the 'extensions' folder, but the weather data fields won't populate outside of Survey123 Connect (win10). I've re-published a fresh Survey but still no luck; using the latest versions of Connect, Fieldapp, etc. Testing on iOS, windows10 and android without consistency. So, is it safe to say, it's just too early for this feature or would anyone have any suggestions? thanks all, brian ... View more

Thanks Erwin, We ARE ABLE to run/use the 3.1 AppStudio application within an Android Tablet IF we use the latest AppStudio Player. ... View more

Thanks for the UPDATE to AppStudio,  We have successfully pushed an updated application through the Apple and Google PLAY store (both accepted) BUT the android version of our app won't load the map.    Just wondered if this issue has been identified by other users.   The app was built in the cloud earlier this week and after 3.1 appeared within the appstudio download page (last friday, sept 21st). Thanks very much! ... View more

Hello Ismael and James, Thanks for this post!  It's very helpful, and with a little help from a co-worker (Tim Sexton) I was able to leverage gmail to serve the notification email(s).    I did have to specify port 587 and username/password following your instructions, but there was also an edit needed within the original python script:  Near line 296 change:  smtplib.SMTP(servername) to smtplib.SMTP(servername, srvrInfo[1]) then for the "server" config section in the json file, include the port number: ["smtp.gmail.com","587","googleusername","googleapp_password"] The python script was missing the port information for the connection. Have a great friday!  Brian C. ... View more

Thanks George, I'm using 10.2.2 Server and have not installed ArcSDE command-line tools, so I just double-checked my ArcCatalog "Enterprise Geodatabase" tools to make sure 'upgrade license' wasn't included without my knowledge. So, the ONLY way to accomplish the 'license renewal' in advanced of your Enterprise Geodatabase license expiration date is via ArcSDE command-line in versions 10.2+? Thanks for your clarification; i was aware of the 10.0 and 10.1 ArcSDE commandline options, but i've not installed those in later releases... is ArcPy and option? thanks again brian ... View more

UPDATE:    I believe this ArcGIS Collector issue has been resolved as of ArcGIS Collector (iOS) version 10.3.3 I'm almost certain this info has been posted elsewhere within Geonet but I wanted to confirm that others are having the same 'pleasant' experience that we have had in our latest testing against an Enterprise Login configuration using Shibboleth.  I've only tested this on an Apple Device (iPhone 5s) using ArcGIS Collector 10.3.3 but I will confirm it's also functioning on an Android device. thanks, Brian Culpepper CAST, University of Arkansas ...
