I have managed to embed a Survey123 web form within a web page according to the instructions here. It all works except the height of the embedded form is too small - see below. I really want the form to display at full height and not have to scroll through the form using the scrollbar. I cannot find any way to adjust the height. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance. ...

We have many surveys and are concerned about the situation where the item ID of a survey may change. A typical Survey123 URL includes a survey ID, and in our case, a portal address, since we host our own surveys. To further complicate things, we use QR code labels on assets. The QR code encodes the survey URL including the survey item ID and our portal address. It also uses URL parameters to pre-populate some fields on the survey form. Obviously, if the item ID of a survey was to change, we do not want to go and change all the labels on assets. So, is it possible to somehow have a permanent URL to a survey and, ideally, have a shortened URL as well (our fill URL gets quite long once we populate parameters)? I know that some URL shortener services purport to do this, but we would rather not involve another 3rd party service to achieve this. Any suggestions or solutions would be welcomed.  ... View more

We are trying to use FME Server/Desktop to achieve the following: 1. Intercept Survey123 submissions using webhooks - this works well. 2. Conditionally send an email containing submitted data - this works as well. 3. Include any photos attached to the survey submission - this part we can't get to work. Most submissions do not include photos. We are novices with FME. Surely someone has had this requirement before. If so, can you please share your solution? ... View more

We have an on-premise portal installation. Recently we had a couple of instances of running out of disk space, the database went into read-only mode, and we could not place the Postgresql database back into read/write mode. By rolling back to a backup we were able to restart the database in read-write mode. We have decided to move to a highly available portal but as an interim step we want to investigate using SQL Server (our enterprise DBMS) instead of Postgresql as our portal DBMS. Is this possible? ... View more

I use Survey123 Connect / XLSForms to create surveys hosted on our own portal. Survey data is stored in a hosted feature layer on the portal. This is great for prototyping/developing surveys. But now I want to store and sync the data in a feature class in our enterprise GDB (MS SQL Server). What I want to achieve is the same end result as creating a feature class in EGDB, publishing that as a portal service, and creating a survey from that service, but sort of in reverse, even if I have to publish the reverse-engineered feature layer as a service with sync capabilities and re-connect the survey to the published feature service. To add another complication, we allow photo attachments in our survey. I understand that there is a Synchronize Survey Tool, but from what I have read it may be a little error-prone. Has anyone been able to do this successfully? ... View more

Can favorite answers be disabled in Survey123? We have a safety checklist form in which users can avoid completing the checklist by just using the saved Favorite answers. Obviously this is very undesirable. ... View more

I have a very simple survey. It has several required fields and some of them have an expression in the Relevant column in the XLSform (for simplicity's sake, 1=0 in the Relevant column hides the field).  My survey is based on an existing feature service in our portal, in which the required fields are set to not nullable. The questions are not in a group or a repeating group. Survey123 version 3.10.323 I publish the survey and it all works as it should except when I send the completed form to our portal. The first time I send it, it gives an error - see screen cap below. The error in the ArcGIS Server Manager is also shown below. The strange thing is if I go to the Survey123 outbox, edit the form again, don't change anything but just send it, it works the 2nd time around. This behaviour is consistent. As well, the surveys in the Survey123 outbox won't send if you click the Send icon at the bottom of the outbox - it gives the same error as shown above..  Has anyone encountered this problem and do you have a fix or workaround? ...
