I just tried out what I think you describe, and was able to add multiple annotated images that adopted the expected custom name, in Connect and in the field app. In the bind::esri:parameters column in entered: fileName=concat("hello_",format-date(now(),"%y%m%d%H%M%S")) And in the appearance column I entered: multiline annotate Am using Survey123 Connect 3.19.115 on Windows and Survey123 field app 3.19.120 on Android. Is there any other differences in your survey that might give some clues?

Some things to try: - double check 'postcode' is indeed the name of the previous question (a little obvious I agree, but just maybe there is a space, or is it capitalized?) - change 'contains' to 'matches' (does it make a difference in either of your expressions?) Is your postcode question also a select question, or is it a text question? I just tried the Dynamic Choice Lists Using Search Appearance sample in Connect, and experimented with changing the leading question to be just a text box, where you type the state name rather than picking it from a list, and that also worked as expected (see attached my cut down of that sample). So yes, what you show SHOULD work. It's just a matter of finding the typo.

On the question of using this survey as a template, yes. Store your survey in a group, and as an org administrator set that group as the source for new surveys. For more information see Organization survey and settings management—ArcGIS Survey123 | Documentation

Yes you can do this. You can start with the survey that you already have which has all the questions. In Connect make copies of that survey using 'Save As' and name them according to your groups. In each of the copied surveys, delete the questions that are not needed. BEFORE publishing these copied surveys, go to the Setting tab of each of the XLSForm's and enter the submission URL of your original survey. This will mean that when you publish, instead of creating a new feature layer for each survey, they will all point to the original feature layer. The submission URL is a concatenation of the Item ID of the feature layer and the portal Content Root. it will look something like this: https://www.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/21a6c530b31a4523bdff7gg94c9c5d9a For more info, see Use Survey123 with existing feature layers—ArcGIS Survey123 | Documentation

I can see you have made a lot of tests in the attached spreadsheet. It appears to me that the combination that best suits your stated requirement is test_4_1 (ie: readonly=yes, expression without the once, and calculationMode=whenEmpty). what is it about that combination that doesn't work for you?

If you are keen to take your tour apps to the next level, consider adding location aware functionality. To demonstrate this, we now have a unique app in the stores for GIS and sport enthusiasts to try out for themselves. This app is special because it contains location aware content (text to speech) and location aware behavior (auto selection of features based on location). So, even though you can download it and have a look at some of the content from the comfort of home, to experience the app functionality in full, you need to come to Melbourne Australia! The statues that are located around the outside of the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) and on the path to the nearby train station, commemorate sporting hero’s who have excelled at this venue. The text and photos you see in the app describe their affiliation with the ground, some favorable, all memorable. How it was put together This AppStudio app was created using the Attachment Viewer template and the Geotrigger sample. By adding geotriggers to the attachment viewer template, the card carousel recognizes where you are physically located and automatically shows you the card for the statue you are closest too. Can’t read the text on the statute because it’s too sunny (or cloudy. or rainy... it is Melbourne!)? That’s ok – you can press the play button and hear the text on the statue read out to you from your device. Using text to speech in your apps is a great way to provide an accessibility option to physical features that might present limitations to users. The following screenshots show the main screens: the map screen should be familiar to AppStudio users, and the information page is showing content read directly from the underlying feature service. Those Play and Pause buttons you see at the bottom of the information page, only appear when you are standing next to the corresponding statute. Using the app (aka - considerations when going 'location aware') For those with a keen eye, you may see some odd discrepancies for the location of the statues and your reported device location, in relation to the basemap displayed in the app. Don’t panic – this is to be expected when using non precision hardware (smartphones) and world scale basemaps. The location reported by a device is heavily dependent on the hardware (different phones will vary greatly: locations may differ, jump around, or be slow to update) and your position can also can be interrupted by large structures. The beautiful mass of concrete and metal that you are standing next to - the MCG - is playing a big part in the accuracies you see in this app. Basemaps also have their own accuracy issues, so if you're standing next to a statue and the audio Play button doesn't appear, move around a little to get a better location in relation to the app map. To try the app yourself, use the links below to download the app on your device, or search for Statue Tour in the app stores. Download the app for Android Download the app for iOS NB: This app is only available in the Australian app stores. Creating your own location aware app The steps taken to create this app are not out of reach for someone familiar with AppStudio and QML, but are more than 'a few lines of code'. It does make the most of existing ArcGIS functionality - all the data comes from feature services, and the starting point is to create an attachment viewer app using the AppStudio template. If you are interested in creating your own location aware app like this one, I encourage you to comment below and describe what it is you would like to do, and hopefully we can point you in the right direction.

In Survey123 have you chosen the Integrated Provider? When you are using an app to add RTK and then make that corrected position available to other apps via mock location, you need to have Survey123 configured to use the Integrated Provider (instead of connecting directly to it with bluetooth). Some specific receiver hardware/software combo's do pass the corrected information from their app back to the receiver (some Eos Arrow's - not all I think), so that you can can connect to it via bluetooth and get the corrections, but this is not common.

Observations and preventative actions keep linear infrastructure these assets in continuous and safe operation. Linear infrastructure can intersect the land of many landowners, across hundreds if not thousands of kilometers, so efficient inspection record keeping and hazard mitigation along a corridor are critical to operation of an infrastructure network. Regular driving along the length (or sections) of a pipeline can be a regulatory requirement. When operations are going well, record keeping should be no more than one tap of a button, once a day, acknowledging the inspection was completed. Whilst performing regulatory inspections, hazards can also be identified and documented in order to mitigate risk. Some hazards might be common and could be represented by additional buttons for capturing quickly. With little effort, the scenario I describe here can be readily represented as a QuickCapture project: a button for daily inspections, and some buttons to capture common hazards. But what if some hazards need more information? Of course, a QuickCapture project can have lots of buttons – and if your field workers are using tablets and are used to a large array of buttons, you could conceivably offer them a panel with all the possible combinations, but if you don’t need all of the combinations every day, why flood their screen with everything all of the time? A better way to organize field data collection is to make the most common actions single buttons in QuickCapture, and then jump out to another app when more detail is required. Jumping out to Survey123 is a great way to separate out data collection. Use QuickCapture’s one button tap for frequent and clearly defined data collection, and use Survey123 for infrequent but more detailed data collection. Both apps edit the same feature layer and can pass attributes between them. There’s no need to force your workflow into just one app when apps can play well together. To see this in action, I'd like to introduce you to the Pipeline Patrol sample project. When deployed from within the QuickCapture designer, you get all the items you need for a complete pipeline patrol project. And if pipelines are not your thing – the sample project still is a great way to show you how to use projects and surveys (and dashboards and experiences) together for a complete project. Pipeline Patrol sample project contents The Pipeline Patrol sample project is designed to show you how to use QuickCapture and Survey123 to record daily pipeline patrols and to manage identified hazards. Daily patrols are recorded with the tap of one button in QuickCapture. Routine hazard reports can be captured with additional buttons in QuickCapture. For exceptional hazards, you can launch Survey123 from within QuickCapture to collect the more detailed information required. A button in the app launches an experience that shows just the active hazards, and if something goes terribly wrong, call your supervisor from right within the app. Of course, the job doesn't finish after identifying a hazard, but when it has been mitigated and closed out. Once back in the office, pipeline patrollers can view their open hazard reports and mark them as closed using an online form in a dashboard. Keep a track of patrols on the Compliance tab of the dashboard by seeing your current and recent patrol completions. Identify pipelines or sections that have been missed or need more attention.

Trek2There is a smart compass that will always point to your destination. Unlike an ordinary compass, pointing to magnetic North, this app will use your direction of travel to tell you in what direction you should go to reach your destination. If you missed the original release of Trek2There, read more about the app in the Introducing Trek2There blog article. Trek2There has now been updated to include location status features that are in some of our other apps: Tap the satellite icon to see new location status data, map, and debug pages. On the location status data page see current geographic coordinates, switch coordinate formats by tapping on the latitude, longitude or USNG labels, and copy paste coordinate values to from other apps. On the location status map page see your current location (only if online). On the location status debug page see incoming NMEA messages and choose to pause, record (to a NMEA log file) or clear messages. Also, on Windows, connections to Bluetooth GNSS receivers are now more stable. Get Trek2There from the Apple App Store, Google Play or Microsoft Store.

There are two way to do this: - copy your data to a known location on your device and use the AppStudio Framework to determine the storage location - bundle your data as a Qt resource within the app and copy the data out to a known location once the app is installed. These are described here https://doc.arcgis.com/en/appstudio/extend-apps/deploylocalofflinedata.htm

Sometimes it's not enough to get just the longitude and latitude of a location displayed in your app, and you need to additionally record metadata about the location value. For example, you may also need to record errors in longitude and latitude values, differential age, and the number of satellites in use when the location was captured. To do this you must receive NMEA sentences from your location sensor into your app. When using an external GNSS receiver, this is a given – it’s the only way to work with an external receiver – but when your high precision GNSS receiver is built into your device, you need to specifically connect to those NMEA messages, to get this information. I recently tested with the DT Research DT301X-TR, a rugged windows tablet to get this working, but the principle described here would apply to any Windows or Android tablet that has an on-board GNSS receiver that can output NMEA sentences. The following discussion is also relevant to all apps built with AppStudio – I may reference Survey123 and QuickCapture, but any app you build with AppStudio can access NMEA from on-board GNSS receivers too. On all hardware that is compatible with these apps, you can read location information via the device's integrated location provider. Each operating system uses a similar concept, providing location coordinates and some level of accuracy information to any app that is running on the device. In our apps, this is the default location connection. The provider list typically looks like this by default. When you connect this way, you generally receive data for: latitude, longitude, altitude, horizontal and vertical accuracies, speed and direction. Even in the case of external GNSS receivers, some manufacturers have provided ways for you to receive location information from their hardware through the integrated location provider. Typically, you install the manufacturers own app on your device, that app performs calculations to improve accuracy, and then the corrected latitude and longitudes are passed on to all other apps on the device. If you don’t need to record the additional metadata in your app of choice, then this may be all you need. Additional data that can be collected directly from NMEA messages include: magnetic variation, geoid separation, latitude and longitude errors, HDOP, VDOP, PDOP, differential age, reference station id’s, and the number of satellites visible and in use. For a full list of metadata that can be used in an app see the Position component in the API Reference. If you need to record additional information that is provided by an on-board GNSS receiver via NMEA sentences, you must make a serial connection to that receiver. Windows and Android can present GNSS hardware as COM ports – if the manufacturer provides access to these ports for the GNSS receiver, you can connect directly to the receiver in your ArcGIS app. To add a serial connection, choose to add a location provider of type USB. From the list, choose the correct COM port, and see the connection in the app. Figuring out which COM port to choose, can be tricky, and trial and error is a common tactic. With built in receivers, the port number should be fixed and be provided by the hardware manufacturer. On Windows, you can attach and detach USB devices readily, so you may have many more COM ports listed. Viewing the list of Ports in Control Panel > Device Manager may list an identifiable name against each port number. Alternatively, ports that are occupied by Bluetooth devices can be identified in the More Bluetooth Options dialog in the Bluetooth Settings page, for elimination. Once connected, all available data will be displayed in the app, and depending on the functionality of the app, can be saved to records that you capture in the app. For more information on working with GNSS receivers in different apps @@@see Prepare for high accuracy data collection in AppStudio Prepare for high accuracy data collection in Survey123 Use a high accuracy receiver in QuickCapture

Hi Tim You should be able to use the Catalyst with those apps - the locations from Catalyst update those delivered through the internal service provider so you shouldn't need to to any configuration in Survey123. We've has some questions about the value of MSL reported - see Getting MSL with Trimble Catalyst in Survey123 . Not sure what's happening there - we need to do some testing to figure out if somethings wrong. Regards Marika
