Adding a new field to an already published survey

KerrieMcCarroll

I want to add a new question to an already published survey. I'm getting the warning below. According to documentation on Publish a survey—ArcGIS Survey123 | Documentation adding a new question without deleting the existing data in the feature service is allowed, but I am looking for confirmation as I need to be 100% confident. There are thousands of records with attachments in the feature service, plus and an associated Operations Dashboard, so I don't want to have to re-create the survey. I'm using version 3.10.239. If I add the field when publishing the survey will it delete all of the existing data?

Just add yourself this new field in Feature Hosted Layer data structure in ArcGIS Online UI: Add or delete a field—ArcGIS Online Help | Documentation

It's the same thing...

Alternatively, if you simply turn on the switch control I highlight in the screenshot below, Survey123 Connect will add the field for you. As @SMauri indicated, it is the same thing. With this warning, Survey123 Connect is simply asking for your confirmation before adding a new field to your layer. Adding the field manually or through Connect, no data will be lost.

I am having a similar issue. I have tried publishing the survey using both methods, the field is being created however, it is getting stuck and not completing the publish ( see photo below). This survey is linked to a field map, would that have anything to do with it? survey123 error.PNG

I added the new field to the hosted feature layer on ArcGIS Online and then published the survey123, that worked for me.
