@IsmaelChivite @JamesTedrick Is it possible to calculate an image field using images stored in the survey's Media folder, through URL parameters or other method?
I'm capturing signed in users with a Username field and implementing logic to expose permit review questions to credentialed users to edit existing survey data (permit applications). Ultimately I would like to populate an image question with a saved signature image based on who is signed in so I can auto-apply it to the survey's Feature Report template to replace a wet signature and automate permit generation/issuance.
We cannot use the Signature type input question due to device constraints, but if I can ensure credentialed access to the question that instantiates the signature calculation, I think that would work. I tried using pulldata() to reference a test image in the media folder, but I couldn't get that to work. My next thought was the media::image column on the choices sheet, but I haven't gotten that far.
Cheers,
DA
Ismael,
Is this still the case? Have a customer who wants to do a signature in the web browser while filling out a survey.
Thanks,
Amy
Thank you for the reply Ismael
Hi Wesley Collins This is a known limitation in ArcGIS Enterprise. Refer to https://community.esri.com/groups/survey123/blog/2019/07/23/understanding-survey123-feature-reports (Enterprise section) for details. We have an official Enhancement Request logged for this under the ArcGIS Enterprise product. You can ask Esri Technical Support to add your customer number to this ENH to help raise priority.
ENH-000125371 Support keyword attachment columns into ArcGIS Enterprise so that survey photo attachments can be printed when generating reports from an ArcGIS Enterprise feature service.
We are having trouble getting our signatures on a survey to export into our report. The feature services we are calling from are on a server rather than stored on AGOL. This seems to be a recurring issue, are there any solutions to this? I have constructed a pretty large report that all works except for the signature. I am going to have to go through web app builder is I cannot get this signature to generate.
Hi Matthew,
Signatures are stored as attachments - they can be extracted once exported as a file geodatabase. How To: Batch export attachments from a feature class provides instructions on doing this.
Is there a way to export signatures as a .jpg or .png file, when you go to export the data from the survey? I noticed it seems to only export all other fields but files/attachments in the zip file. Thanks!
Hi Roger,
This was introduced in v. 2.4- use either the draw or annotate appearance on an image question. See Appearance—Survey123 for ArcGIS | ArcGIS for more information
Hello, is this functionality implemented already or is in development process? Thanks.
I am having the same problem when I enter a signature on my iPhone. Only a very small portion of the signature in the signature box appears in the jpeg image. ichivite-esristaff
I am noticing that the signatures are being cropped when they are stored as JPG. See the screenshot from viewing the signature in the Survey123 website:
HI Rachel. Not at the moment. Signatures only work in the mobile app.
Is there a way to get the signature box to work in the web app?
The 3 items you listed are exactly what I am trying to do Ismael - freelance sketching, sketching on diagrams and photo notes. Some what similar to what one can do on Explorer.
Hi Jarom Hlebasko. Yes, this is planned.
This is one of these fun projects that unfortunately we had to push back so we could address other not to exciting but important features.
I am very interested in this capability. It seems this has been on radar for quite some time. Is there any plan when this might be implemented?
Hi Ariana,
this functionality is planned although we do not have a milestone assigned for this at the moment.
Feel free to add a +1 to this issue: Signature Box Expansion to Sketch Box · Issue #168 · Esri/Survey123Community · GitHub and reference this discussion thread.

Is there a way to control the size of the box?
What I really need is a place for field inspectors to draw a small sketch. (Photos are great but are not always possible.) The signature box is formatted for what I need to accomplish, but it would be great to have the option to click on that "question" and have the box expand to a full or half screen of the tablet for drawing. This is a functionality that I would love to see added.
