enforcing survey123 integer type

Question

I am doing an external select for several attributes, then concatenating them into a unique ID for a pulldata operation. The values are coming in with 1 decimal place instead of integer and I am unable to enforce integer.

Example: select_one_external dpas

I have tried both esriFieldTypeString and esriFieldTypeInteger in the bind::esri:fieldType column, to no avail. See attached for screen shots and spreadsheet.

Thanks.

Bob

Hi Bob,

This is a known issue with using numeric values as labels in select questions at this time.
