This year marks an important milestone for ArcGIS Survey123. Last month, Survey123 turned 10 years old, with its first release dating back to June 2016. Over the past decade, Survey123 has grown into a complete, form-centric data collection system used by organizations around the world.   With the July 2026 release, Survey123 enters a new era. This release introduces two new apps—Survey123 Mobile and Survey123 Studio—along with significant enhancements to the Survey123 website. Together, these updates mark a major step forward in how surveys are created and how data is captured in the field and on the web. We’ll start with what’s new in the Survey123 Website, then take a closer look at the next-generation apps.  The following video highlights what’s new in the July 2026 release.    New in the Survey123 Website  The July 2026 release introduces meaningful enhancements to the Survey123 website, reinforcing its role as an equal and key part of the Survey123 experience. These updates help you design surveys faster, manage them more efficiently, and better control how surveys are opened and completed.  The new Survey123 assistant helps streamline survey creation through a conversational experience. Describe the form you want, let the assistant draft the design, make any changes as needed, then bring the result into the web designer to review and publish. Alongside it, the Translation assistant can translate a survey into multiple languages in just a few clicks. The translations are machine generated, so they should still be reviewed by a human, but they make multilingual workflows much easier to start.    AI assistant for form creation   Automatically generate form translations with Translation Assistant   There is also an important enhancement for data-driven workflows: you can now include repeats when creating a survey from an existing feature layer. Start with a feature layer, choose which layers and tables to include, and continue refining the survey in the web designer. This makes it easier to connect Survey123 to existing enterprise data structures.    Start with a feature layer and related records   The web designer itself is more flexible in this release. It now supports undo and redo, making it easier to experiment without losing work, and it includes an improved tag editor so you can reuse organizational tags and reduce duplication.  Finally, a new submission apps setting gives you more control over where a survey can be opened and submitted. You can choose whether a survey is available in the web app, in the next-generation field app, or both, helping match the right survey to the right task and reduce clutter for field users.    Specify app that can open a survey     Meet the next generation of ArcGIS Survey123 apps    A new foundation for the next decade  This release marks the start of the transition. Survey123 Mobile and Survey123 Studio do not yet have full feature parity with the current Survey123 field app and Survey123 Connect, instead focusing on a core set of capabilities used in most workflows, with quarterly updates continuing to bring functionality forward over time. During this transition, Survey123 3.x (the field app and Survey123 Connect) remains supported by Esri and can be run side-by-side with the next-generation apps, allowing you to adopt the new experience when it meets your needs. These apps are built on a modern architecture designed for faster innovation and long-term evolution, while still delivering a familiar experience through the same XLSForm standard.  The guidance is it to evaluate each release and adopt the next generation when it supports your needs. ArcGIS Survey123 Mobile & Survey123 Studio   What began as a simple way to replace paper forms has evolved into a modern platform built for the next decade of field data collection.    Survey123 Mobile: the next-generation field app  Survey123 Mobile is the next-generation data collection app for iOS, Android, and Windows. It is the successor to the current Survey123 field app and brings a redesigned experience for completing forms in the field. It is a new but familiar user experience for capturing data, with an enhanced login experience for public users, improved accessibility support, and stronger mapping capabilities.  One of the biggest improvements is mapping. Survey123 Mobile supports web maps in Esri-supported projections and adds capabilities such as layer control and bookmarks. The result is a stronger location experience for field workers who rely on map context as part of their data collection workflow.    Enhanced mapping and geometry capture This release also delivers one of the most requested enhancements in Survey123: tabular repeats. With tabular repeats, related records can be viewed and edited in a spreadsheet-like table, making it faster to navigate and edit repeat data, review entries, and make updates. Users can still open individual records in the full form view when needed.    Tabular view of repeats data collection   And for teams that combine detailed forms with rapid capture, Survey123 Mobile now supports ArcGIS QuickCapture projects, making it easier to move between both experiences in a single app. In this initial implementation, QuickCapture support is focused on point capture only, and not all attribute variables are supported yet. Additional capabilities will be added in future releases, you can review the QuickCapture capability in ArcGIS for details about what is included thin this release and planned for the future. Open QuickCapture project in Survey123 Survey123 Studio: the next-generation authoring experience Survey123 Studio is the next-generation Windows authoring app and the successor to Survey123 Connect. It brings a refreshed form authoring experience, with a more modern interface and quicker access to design details, theme settings, and schema tools.    Survey123 Studio dark and light mode Like Survey123 Mobile, Survey123 Studio is part of an ongoing roadmap. The first release is intentionally focused on core workflows, with additional capabilities arriving through quarterly updates as parity progresses.    Download Today!!! Survey123 Mobile and Survey123 Studio are available to download today. You can download Survey123 Mobile from the Microsoft Store (Win), App Store (Apple/iOS), or Google Play (Android).  Survey123 Studio is available from the Microsoft Store (Win). Visit the central Survey123 Download Page or grab the app directly for your platform below: Survey123 Mobile: Windows Store | App Store | Google Play Survey123 Studio: Microsoft Store ArcGIS Enterprise Users: As ArcGIS Survey123 Mobile & Studio are new applications, they must be registered with existing ArcGIS Enterprise deployments. The process is outlined here: Add Survey123 Mobile and Survey123 Studio as Registered Applications to ArcGIS Enterprise Looking ahead  A practical migration path  Because functional equivalency with the 3.x apps are being delivered over time, migration will not happen all at once—and it does not need to. The recommended approach is to review, open, evaluate, and publish. Start by checking feature compatibility, open your survey in Survey123 Studio, address any issues or wait for an upcoming release if needed, then publish and test in Survey123 Mobile.  The Survey123 Studio and Mobile feature Functionality Matrix will let you know what’s available in the current release, what’s in development, and what’s planned or not planned. That flexibility is intentional. Some teams will be ready to adopt the next generation now, especially for new projects. Others may continue to use the current apps until the next-generation releases fully support their workflows. Both patterns are expected, and both are supported during the transition.  The path to future innovation The July 2026 release is a major milestone, but it is best understood as the beginning of the next phase for ArcGIS Survey123. Survey123 Mobile and Survey123 Studio establish a modern foundation for future innovation, while the Survey123 Website continues to make authoring faster and more capable. From here, quarterly releases will keep expanding functionality, closing parity gaps, and introducing new capabilities that build on this new platform.

The March 2026 update for ArcGIS Survey123 continues our focus on making survey authoring more approachable in the web, while clearly marking an important milestone for the Survey123 field app and Survey123 Connect on the current (3.x) technology stack.  This release delivers long‑requested enhancements in the Survey123 website, especially around repeats, calculations, and schema management, while the Survey123 field app and Connect 3.25 focus exclusively on bug fixes as we prepare for the next generation of Survey123.    Survey123 Website  Author repeat questions directly in the web designer  You can now author repeat questions directly in the Survey123 web designer, without switching to Survey123 Connect or working with XLSForms. Repeats are now fully supported in the web authoring experience, making it much easier to model one‑to‑many data collection patterns such as assets at a site, inspection checkpoints, or household members.  When adding a repeat, authors can:  Insert a repeat section directly from the Add panel  Drag and drop questions into the repeat  Control how records are created, including starting with one record, starting empty, or specifying a fixed number of records  Control the number of repeat records based on a previous response  This brings one of the most powerful Survey123 capabilities into the browser, significantly lowering the barrier to building more advanced surveys.  Design Repeat Questions Repeat on the web Calculation Modes: More control over how calculations are evaluated Have you ever wanted more control over when a calculation runs—such as triggering it only from a user‑initiated Calculate action, preserving values that were manually entered, or evaluating only when a field is empty? In complex surveys, knowing when a calculation runs can be just as important as the calculation itself. When authoring a calculation in the web designer, you can now explicitly set the calculation mode, giving you precise control over when a calculation is evaluated—especially useful for complex forms and performance‑sensitive workflows. The available calculation modes are: Automatic (default) – Calculates when the question is empty or hasn’t been modified. Manual – Calculates only when the Calculate answer button is pressed. Always – Calculates when any value referenced in the calculation changes. When empty – Calculates until a nonempty value is returned, then behaves in the same way as manual mode. This enhancement gives authors finer‑grained control over calculation behavior, helping prevent unintended overwrites and improving predictability in more sophisticated forms. Set Calcuation Mode Example Maual Calcuation Mode Use the submission URL in calculations Calculations can now reference the submission URL property directly when authoring surveys in the web designer—similar to using pulldata(“@property”, “submissionUrl”) in an XLSForm. This makes it easy to capture the URL of a submitted record and store it in a field for later use. Storing the submission URL enables more advanced workflows, such as passing a direct link to the record into downstream integrations, notifications, or external systems, where it can be used for quick navigation back to the submitted data. The submission URL can be easily selected directly from the calculation editor. submissionURL in Calculation Edit the feature layer name from the modify schema panel The Survey123 website now allows you to edit the name of the feature layer associated with a survey directly from the Modify schema panel. This small but impactful improvement makes it easier to: Keep feature layer names aligned with organizational naming standards Improve clarity when surveys are shared across teams Reduce the need for post‑publish item management in ArcGIS Online or Enterprise NOTE: You can only change the feature layer name before publishing the survey. Edit Feature Layer Name Add feature layer webhooks from the website Webhooks are commonly used in Survey123 workflows to trigger real‑time actions when data is submitted—such as sending notifications, updating external systems, or kicking off automated processes in tools like Power Automate or custom services. In addition to Survey123 webhooks, you can now configure feature layer webhooks directly from the Survey123 website, making it easier to set up and manage integrations without leaving the authoring experience. The current version of Survey123 supports both Survey123 webhooks and feature layer webhooks. However, the next generation of Survey123 is standardizing on feature layer webhooks to provide a more consistent and scalable integration model across ArcGIS apps. Add feature layer webhooks Survey123 Field App and Survey123 Connect (3.25) Final update on current technology Survey123 field app 3.25 and Survey123 Connect 3.25 mark the final release on the current 3.x technology stack. With this milestone, the team is excited to fully focus on bringing the Survey123 capabilities you rely on—and new innovations—to the next‑generation Survey123 field app and desktop authoring experience. As previously communicated: The current Survey123 (3.x) apps remain supported by Esri No new features or enhancements will be added to the 3.x apps The Survey123 3.x will be retired at a future date Both the current 3.x apps and the next‑generation Survey123 apps can be used side‑by‑side during the transition period This release includes a small number of bug fixes focused on stability and reliability, including: Fix addressing working with Inframarker RFID readers General stability and compatibility improvements based on customer feedback   Looking ahead The evolution of Survey123 is accelerating. On the web, we’re continuing to invest heavily in making survey authoring both more powerful and more approachable—especially with upcoming enhancements that will leverage AI to assist with form creation and data capture. These capabilities are designed to help you move from idea to deployable survey more quickly, while maintaining the control and flexibility advanced users expect. In the coming months, we’ll also introduce the next generation of Survey123 native applications—Survey123 Mobile and Survey123 Studio. These apps represent a major step forward, modernizing the Survey123 experience and laying the foundation for the next decade of form‑centric data collection. To help your organization prepare, we strongly encourage you to start evaluating what’s coming next by joining the Survey123 Early Adopter Community. By trying the next‑generation apps now, you can test your existing workflows, understand what’s changing, and provide critical feedback that directly helps shape the future of Survey123. Your feedback has always played a key role in how Survey123 evolves—and this next chapter is no different.     Bug Fixes and Improvements Fixes and improvements include the following: Survey123 field app—3.25.31 Fixes include the following: A bug was fixed in which the Inframarker scanner failed to load when querying a feature layer that did not contain the expected inframarkerid field.

The November 2025 update to ArcGIS Survey123 is here, and it’s packed with  new features and enhancements designed to make your survey creation and data collection workflows smarter, faster, and more accessible. Survey123 assistant added to the new survey page Create nested groups in the Web Designer AI powered text and audio analysis data capture (beta) Try the Next Generation of Survey123 field app Bug fixes and improvements Start Building Surveys with the Help of an AI Assistant Creating surveys is easier than ever with the help of the Survey123 assistant. And now, a new Survey123 Assistant tile has been added to the New Survey page, giving you a quick and intuitive way to start your form creation. Previously tucked away in the Design page, the assistant is now front and center, making it easier for both new and experienced users to jumpstart their survey creation process with the power of an AI assistant. You can learn more about the Survey123 assistant from the Esri community blog and this blog for “10 Tips for getting a good response from the ArcGIS Survey123 AI assistant”. Experience a smarter, faster, and more inspiring way to build surveys—right from the moment you click “New Survey.” Start with the Survey123 Assistant Nested Groups in the Web Designer: Build Smarter, More Organized Forms The November release introduces support for nested groups in the Survey123 Web Designer—a long-requested enhancement that helps users model complex forms with greater clarity and structure. Previously, the Web Designer only supported flat groups (could not include a group inside another group), limiting how questions could be organized. With this update, you can now drag and drop groups inside other groups, creating a hierarchy that mirrors the logical flow of your data collection process. This is especially valuable for advanced forms that require conditional logic or multi-level categorization. Using nested groups helps to: Organize related questions into clear and logical clusters. Apply visibility rules to entire sections based on user input. Improve readability and navigation for field users. Design forms that reflect real-world workflows, such as inspections, assessments, or incident reporting. The question picker now includes a hierarchy line indicator, helping you visualize the nested structure as you build your form. This enhancement empowers survey authors to create more intuitive and professional-grade forms with the visual feedback provided by the Web Designer. Create Nested Groups in Web Designer AI-Powered Text and Audio Analysis (Beta) We are always looking for ways to reduce manual data entry, minimize errors, and streamline post-survey processing. Instead of functioning solely as passive holders of information, the latest AI features in Survey123 enable dynamic, intelligent data collection in real time throughout the survey process. Building on the AI-powered image analysis, the November release introduces AI-powered text and audio analysis as beta features in production website. These tools allow your forms to do more of the work—automatically analyzing text responses and transcribing audio recordings to populate other questions in your survey. Text Analysis Text analysis lets you configure a calculation to extract or interpret information from a source text question. This is especially useful for: Sentiment analysis: Automatically determine whether a comment is positive, negative, or neutral—ideal for gauging public feedback on parks, facilities, or services. Entity extraction: Pull out key details like equipment names or error codes from technician notes, making it easier to categorize and respond to issues. Translation: Convert comments into a different language for downstream reviewers, while preserving the original text for reference. These capabilities help form authors build smarter forms that can interpret open-ended responses and route them appropriately, saving time and improving data quality. Examples of Text Analysis Audio Transcription Audio transcription enables hands-free data collection by converting recorded speech into text. This is particularly helpful when: Field inspectors need to dictate observations while wearing gloves or working in rugged environments. Citizen reporting apps allow users to describe issues verbally, with the transcribed text automatically populating incident descriptions for faster triage. By integrating audio transcription, Survey123 supports more inclusive and accessible data collection, especially in multilingual or mobile-first scenarios. Transcribe Audio Question to Text Together, these AI-powered features transform how surveys operate—cutting down on typing, reducing follow-up work, and enabling more responsive and intelligent forms. For detailed descriptions of how to use these capabilities, see the blog “Make your Survey123 forms smarter with AI-powered image, text, and audio analysis”.   Try the Next Generation of Survey123 field app We’re building a new Survey123 field app from the ground up—designed to be faster, more reliable, and easier to use. The next generation app brings a modern user experience, improved offline capabilities, and better integration with ArcGIS workflows. Learn more about the next generation of Survey123.

We’re pleased to announce the September 2025 update to ArcGIS Survey123. This release delivers powerful enhancements to the Survey123 website, making it easier than ever to design, manage, and share surveys. Web Designer: A New Experience Web Designer: Create Forms from Existing Feature Layers New Templates Featuring Grid Layouts Other Enhancements and bug fixes Try the Next Generation Survey123 Field App Web Designer: A New Experience The Survey123 web designer has been reimagined with a cleaner, more intuitive interface. The new panel‑based configuration workflow gives quick and easy access to the items needed when drafting or modifying a Survey123 form design. The new left-side panel now hosts menu tabs for Add, Appearance, Options, Language, and Modify Schema. This multi-panel design might look familiar if you have used the ArcGIS Map Viewer, Experience Builder, or Field Maps Designer.   Panel Based Configuration After adding questions to your form design the right-side panel gives you quick and easy access to the properties of the selected question.     By moving the Language and Modify Schema options to a more prominent location we have made them easier to find and access throughout the form design process.   We feel that these enhancements truly streamline the entire experience and will increase user productivity and enjoyment when using the web designer.   Web Designer: Create Forms from Existing Feature Layers Have you ever wanted to use ArcGIS Survey123 to capture data for an existing feature layer? Maybe your team manages authoritative datasets with a predefined schema to maintain consistency across your system of record, and you would like to build a form based on those datasets. We’re excited to announce that you can now build surveys directly from existing feature layers in the web designer—a capability previously available only in Survey123 Connect for desktop.   This feature is especially useful for organizations that manage items such as infrastructure, assets, or environmental data and want to collect updates or inspections directly into their existing layers. The feature will help ensure responses align perfectly with your existing GIS data model.  And it will help streamline form creation workflows by eliminating the need to manually recreate fields and properties.   New Templates Featuring Grid Layouts Over the past year, Survey123 introduced grid layouts in the web designer, giving you the ability to define columns within pages or groups and control question spans for side-by-side placement. This makes forms more structured, easier to navigate, and reduces unnecessary scrolling. With this release, we’ve updated three templates to showcase the power of grid layouts. These templates are designed not only to demonstrate how to technically implement grids but also to inspire you with what’s possible when creating beautiful, user-friendly forms. We can’t wait to see the creative and streamlined Survey123 forms you build using grid layouts on the web!   Other Enhancements and bug fixes Field App and Survey123 Connect Security Fixes: The Windows versions of the Survey123 field app (version 3.24.21) and Survey123 Connect (version 3.24.30) received a critical security update addressing a potential vulnerability (CVE-2023-4863) View this article for more information Survey123 Assistant Enhancements You can now edit previously sent messages to correct typos or improve prompts. The Note question type is now supported, giving you more flexibility in guiding respondents.

The ArcGIS Survey123 team has been developing a next-generation version of ArcGIS Survey123; in a June blog post we shared how it will reimagine field data collection with a modern foundation, a more intuitive experience, and richer mapping. Today, we’re excited to take the next step: the public beta is now open—and we’d love your participation and feedback. If you missed the original overview, catch up here: Announcing the Next Generation of ArcGIS Survey123. The next-generation field app brings a familiar but streamlined experience, an improved first‑time onboarding flow, a refreshed Calcite‑based design, and better accessibility such as light/dark mode and screen reader support.  Built on the ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET, the new app offers improved mapping capabilities, and compatibility across iOS, Android, and Windows, and a path forward for new features.  In this first public beta, most of the Survey123 features and question types are supported in the app, but there will inevitably be some features that you use, that are not there yet. We’ll continue regular beta releases as we add capabilities and refine the app experience. Our current plan targets the first production release in Spring 2026, followed by steady updates to reach parity and bring exciting new capabilities. We aim to ensure minimal disruption to your current workflows during the testing and transition period to the new applications. To facilitate this, the current version (3.x) of Survey123 may be used concurrently with the next generation (26.x) application on the same device. Both the existing app (3.x) and the next-generation app (26.x) will remain available throughout the beta phase and for a defined period following the initial release, enabling users to migrate at their own pace. In addition to the new Survey123 field application, we are also developing an updated version of the Survey123 Connect desktop publishing tool. Please note that early releases of the next generation application will not include all features present in the current version; user feedback will be invaluable in shaping future development priorities.   Join the beta (it takes just a few minutes) Sign in to the Early Adopter Community (EAC) and join the Survey123 project. (If you’re new to EAC, create an account) Sign up for the Survey123 Early Adopter Community After you join the Survey123 Early Adopter Community go the Documentation section to learn what to test, how to update your forms with Connect, what features have not yet been implemented, and how to provide feedback.   Download the Survey123 Connect beta and Survey123 beta field app for iOS, Android, or Windows and start testing your forms.  Note: You do not need to reauthor your existing surveys to test the beta app, but you will need to republish using the Survey123 Connect Beta. See the beta doc for more details. Share feedback in the EAC feedback channel—what works well, what’s blocking you, and what you want next. Your input shapes our roadmap. Tip: If you participated in the private preview, you’re already set—just update to the latest public beta build and keep the feedback coming. What we’re listening for: Stability and Bugs: With the features already implemented, how is performance, stability, and what issues did you find. Must‑have parity: Which current 3.x features are essential for your organization’s go‑live? Your experience with new features and design. Survey123 has always been built with the community. Opening the public beta is a major milestone—one that’s only possible because of the candid feedback and real‑world testing you provide. We’re excited to keep building this with you. Thank you! —The Survey123 Team ... View more

What’s New in ArcGIS Survey123 (July 2025)  The July 2025 update to ArcGIS Survey123 introduces powerful new features and enhancements across the field app, web designer, Survey123 Connect, and the website. This release focuses on giving you more control over survey layout, improving usability, and resolving key issues reported by the community.  Let’s explore what’s new.  Grid Layout Design Support on the Web: More Control, Better Design  One of the most exciting updates in this release is the expanded support for grid layout styles in the Survey123 web designer. You can now apply grid layouts not only to groups but also to pages, giving you greater flexibility in how you organize and present questions. We brought initial support for reading grid layouts in the web app last November, but previously designing grid layouts was only available in the Survey123 Connect desktop app.  Grid and page layouts are essential for replicating existing paper-based forms more accurately. They allow for a structured and organized presentation of questions and answers, making it easier for users to navigate and complete surveys. This enhancement not only improves the user experience but also ensures consistency and reliability in data collection.  This enhancement is especially useful for:  Side-by-side question placement: Perfect for comparing inputs or reducing vertical scroll.  Responsive design: Layouts adapt more cleanly across devices.  Cleaner visual structure: Helps users navigate complex forms more easily.  Start by defining the number of columns for a page or group of questions. Next define the span (number of columns) each question will occupy based on the number set for the page or group.  You can type in the span for each question, or interactively adjust the span of a question for immediate visual feedback Whether you’re designing a compact inspection form or a multi-page survey with conditional logic, grid layouts help you create a more intuitive and professional experience for your respondents.  Define Group Columns and Adjust Question Column Span Interactively Adjust Grid Columns Survey123 Assistant and Translation Assistant: Now in Preview  The Survey123 assistant and Survey123 translation assistant are no longer in beta; they have transitioned to preview status. This change reflects their maturity and readiness for broader use.  Survey123 assistant: This tool uses generative AI to help you design surveys through a conversational interface. You can ask the assistant to create various types of surveys, and it will guide you through the process, making survey creation more intuitive and efficient.  Survey123 translation assistant: This tool leverages machine translation to generate translations for your survey designs into multiple languages. It works in tandem with the Survey123 assistant to ensure your surveys are accessible to a global audience. The translation assistant is available in both Survey123 Connect and the Survey123 Web Designer. What Does Preview Mean?  Being in preview means that these features have undergone extensive beta testing and are now ready for use in production environments. Preview features are documented and supported by technical support, providing users with a more stable and reliable experience compared to beta features. However, they may still undergo some refinements and updates based on user feedback.  For more information, please refer to the What is preview FAQ and the Survey123 Assistant preview blog. Survey123 Assistant Now in preview Interactive Map Selection Tools  The Data page now includes powerful new selection tools—Feature, Rectangle, Polygon, Lasso, Circle, and Line—to help you filter and analyze responses spatially .   Data Page - Map Selection Tools New “Surveys I Can Submit” Tab  A new Surveys I can submit tab has been added to the My Surveys page. This makes it easier to find surveys shared with you for submission—no more digging through shared content   Sort by Surveys I can submit Other Enhancements and Bug Fixes  Improved Experience Builder Feature Report Widget: You can now print reports from feature layers even if they’re not associated with a survey. This enhancement expands the flexibility of reporting workflows in Experience Builder.  Local Image Uploads for Themes: When customizing the theme of a survey created in Survey123 Connect, you can now upload local image files to use as background images for forms or pages.  Improved Text Display: Text questions in the Analyze page now support word wrap, making long responses easier to read.  Updated Device Model Property: In the Survey123 Field App (v3.23.36) the deviceModel property has been updated to return full model information for newer iOS devices, improving device-specific data collection.  SDK Upgrade on the web: Both the Survey123 website and web app have been upgraded to ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.32, ensuring better performance and compatibility with the latest web technologies.  Publishing Fixes: Fixed a publishing error that occurred when using ArcGIS Enterprise portal feature layers with embedded credentials referencing ArcGIS Online feature layer views.  Bug Fixes: BUG-000113190 / BUG-000115325 / BUG-000146651: Fixed issues where members could not access surveys shared through groups in ArcGIS Online or Portal   BUG-000177081: Visibility rules can now be applied to rating-type questions   BUG-000174648: Word wrap is now supported in the Responses table on the Analyze page   BUG-000175727: Report names now correctly display dynamic field values in the Recent Reports panel   BUG-000175089: Fixed issue where surveys with multiple pages published from the web would auto-populate Null values in the bind::esri:fieldType column when edited in Survey123 Connect   BUG-000173256: Fixed issue where map question labels appeared as black boxes   BUG-000173196: Resolved a bug that allowed users to advance pages despite validation errors   BUG-000157494: Attachments can now be downloaded from embedded surveys in ArcGIS Dashboards   BUG-000174706: Address search suggestions now apply correctly on the first selection   BUG-000154838 / BUG-000154839: Fixed geocoding issues where selected results were not recorded on the first try in both web designer and Survey123 Connect   BUG-000176581: The web app now respects the browser’s default language when the user is not logged in   See the What’s New in Survey123 FAQ for information about past releases.

ArcGIS QuickCapture continues to evolve with powerful enhancements that streamline field data collection and improve user experience across mobile and web platforms. The June 2025 release (v1.23.7) introduces several key updates that address user feedback, enhance performance, and expand customization options.  Let’s take a look at what’s new:  Dynamic Choice List Filtering  In ArcGIS QuickCapture, a dynamic choice list enables the population of dropdown options in your project based on data from a feature layer. This functionality allows the choices to update in real time according to the data within your GIS, making it ideal for scenarios such as selecting assets, locations, or categories that are frequently updated.  With this release, a query builder has been incorporated into the filter for dynamic choice lists. This enhancement simplifies the process of creating filters on your data and controlling which records appear in the list. It enables customization of the user experience based on specific criteria, such as filtering by date, username, or other attributes. This feature ensures that field teams are presented only with the most relevant options when capturing data. A new choice list preview is now available when working with Dynamic Choice Lists. This update provides visual feedback so users can see which choices will be selected from the feature layer. Dynamic Choice List Filter and Preview   Group Management Made Easier  Button groups in QuickCapture allow you to organize related capture buttons into logical sections, making it easier for users to navigate and interact with the app, especially when working with large or complex projects. Grouping buttons improves clarity, reduces visual clutter, and helps field users quickly find the right action for the task at hand.  With this release, you can now merge multiple selected groups into a single group. This enhancement simplifies project layout management and gives you more flexibility when reorganizing or refining your project design.  Merge Groups in QuickCapture Designer New Button Appearance: Extra Round  QuickCapture offers a variety of button styles to help you design intuitive and visually engaging data collection interfaces. From square to rounded and icon-only buttons, these options let you tailor the look and feel of your project to suit the needs of your field users. The right button style can improve usability, reduce errors, and make the app more approachable, especially in fast-paced or high-stress environments.  With this release, we’re introducing a new “extra round” button appearance. This style adds a softer, more modern aesthetic to your project layout and can help visually distinguish key actions or categories. It’s a small change that can make a big difference in how your project feels to the people using it every day.  New extra round button option Other Enhancements and Fixes:  External Browser Sign-In  You can now enable an external browser for signing in to the mobile app. This provides greater flexibility and compatibility with enterprise authentication systems, especially in environments with strict security policies.   Track Upload Interval Customization  The track upload interval can now be set to as low as 60 seconds, enabling more frequent location updates for high-precision tracking scenarios.   Webhook Payload Fix for Attachments  An issue has been resolved where the parentObjectId value for attachments was not returned in webhook payloads when sync was enabled on the feature layer. This fix ensures more reliable integration with automation workflows and third-party systems.  Project Creation Bug Fix  We’ve fixed a bug that caused the warning “You do not have access to the layers in the project map” to appear unexpectedly when creating a project from an existing layer. This fix ensures a smoother project setup experience.  Ready to Try It?  These updates are available now in the latest version of ArcGIS QuickCapture. Whether you’re streamlining inspections, tracking assets, or collecting field observations, these enhancements are designed to make your workflows faster, smarter, and more reliable.  Stay Connected  If you are attending the 2025 Esri Users Conference you can attend these QuickCapture sessions or stop by the product showcase to chat with the team.

We are pleased to announce the February 2025 update of ArcGIS Survey123, with valuable enhancements and fixes designed to enhance your data collection experience. This incremental release brings improvements to the Survey123 field app, Survey123 Connect, and the Survey123 web app. We are committed to empowering you with a comprehensive suite of tools for seamless form-based data collection in the field and on the web. Survey123 Connect: Create hosted feature layer views for submissions Updates to GNSS device support in the Survey123 field app Updates to the Survey123 web designer Map tools Z-values Large attachments Other enhancements and bug fixes   Survey123 Connect: Create hosted feature layer views for submissions We are excited to introduce a new feature in Survey123 Connect that enhances your data management capabilities: the ability to create hosted feature layer views for submissions. Feature layer views in ArcGIS Online allow you to visualize and analyze your hosted feature layer data in various ways without modifying the underlying dataset. These views serve as customizable lenses, enabling you to give others unique and customized access to feature layer data. Hosted features layer views can improve data security. When working with sensitive information, it is crucial to protect your survey’s source feature layer. By keeping your survey feature layer private and creating feature layer views, you can maintain better control over sharing and privilege settings, ensuring the security and integrity of your data. In this release of Survey123 Connect, a new submission feature layer view is now automatically generated the first time you publish your form. This hosted feature layer view, named “SurveyName_form”, manages editing access to the survey’s feature layer. You can then control specific submitter access through the “What can submitters do” option in the share results section of the Survey123 web page. Note: This new feature in Survey123 Connect complements the existing capability of creating hosted feature layer views when publishing surveys using the Survey123 web designer Updates to GNSS device support in the Survey123 field app A key feature of the Survey123 mobile field app is its support for external GNSS receivers, enabling high-accuracy location data integration into data collection workflows. This release of Survey123 includes updates to expand the range of GNSS units supported by the app. The Emlid Reach RX is a compact and lightweight GNSS receiver designed for high-precision surveying and GIS data collection. Survey123 now supports connections to the Emlid Reach RX (Android) and Emlid Reach RX MFi (iOS, Android) external GNSS receivers. Additionally, we have enhanced support for connecting to Leica GNSS receivers operating on Android 12 and later versions.     Updates to the Survey123 web designer Map tools When designing a form using the Survey123 web designer, you have the option to utilize a map, address, or location list question to capture location data. You can now customize which tools are available in the map question, allowing you to provide a focused and streamlined experience based on specific data capture requirements. The individual map tools that can be enabled or disabled include the Search, Home, Coordinate input, Zoom, and Locate tools. Z-value support Z-values enable the display and analysis of GIS data in three dimensions. While standard feature layers utilize x and y coordinates to define locations on a two-dimensional plane, z-values add an additional dimension by representing height above or below a surface. The Survey123 web designer now includes an option to create Z-value enabled feature layers when authoring map (point) questions. Once z-values are enabled for a published feature layer, individuals submitting data can include the z (altitude) value for a collected point location. Large attachments Attaching media (images, audio, video) and files (doc, pdf) to surveys is a common practice for many users. For surveys in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3 and above, the maximum file size for image questions has now been increased to 100MB, and the maximum file size for file questions has been increased to 500MB.   Other enhancements and bug fixes Field App BUG-000171796 A bug was fixed in which attachments with very large ID numbers would not display in a form that was opened from the Inbox. Connect BUG-000155440 A bug was fixed in which a survey connected to a feature layer view could not be updated.  Website Support rendering content in Markdown format in Survey123 assistant BUG-000172800 Survey fails to publish or preview when question visibility rule refers to a value in a previous question containing unclosed quotes BUG-000173405 Some questions used in a calculation in the ArcGIS Survey123 web designer will not appear in the preview on the Edit panel even though the calculation executes as expected BUG-000172563 When there are three or more images in a notes section in Survey 123, the images disappear. BUG-000171268 ArcGIS Survey123 questions with custom-defined bind::esri:fieldLength return a back-end-code or non-human-friendly error when editing sent responses in the ArcGIS Survey123 web designer. BUG-000172930 Users with non-administrator roles are not able to access shared surveys from the My Favorites tab in the ArcGIS Survey123 website. ([My surveys] “My favorites” survey misses icons if the survey is shared to a non-owner/admin user) BUG-000172859 When viewing the response of a map question in the Data tab of Survey123, the question does not respect a configured zoom extent applied in the survey’s Design settings BUG-000172995 The results view layer for a survey published from the ArcGIS Survey123 web designer contains duplicate sublayers Web app Improved performance for multilingual surveys that contain dozens of languages Support mapTools= in the body::esri:style column for geopoint, geotrace, and geoshape questions. BUG-000171336 ArcGIS Survey123 Connect allows publishing a survey with an incorrect HEX code, returning the error “The survey is not accessible or does not exist” when attempting to access the survey form. BUG-000166224 An Arabic survey doesn’t align to the right in Survey123 web app when the first label or the customized survey description (the hint of generated_note_form_title) is not in Arabic.

The November 2024 update for ArcGIS Survey123 brings a host of exciting features to enhance your survey design and user experience. From creating your survey forms to working with the Suvery123 mobile and web apps, this release offers increased flexibility and efficiency. Updates in this release include: Grid layout support in the Survey123 web app Enhanced Language Support in Translation Assistant (Beta) The new signIn URL parameter allows sign-in for public surveys ArcGIS organization setting to enable Survey123 AI assistants New persistent offline default map in the Survey123 mobile app Update January 21, 2024 - iOS Keyboard Grid layout support in the Survey123 web app Grid layouts are an excellent way to customize your forms created ArcGIS Survey123 Connect. By grouping questions together and arranging them side by side, grid layouts increase flexibility in your survey designs. This feature not only makes your digital forms visually appealing but also mimics the familiar look of traditional paper forms. Additionally, grid layouts can significantly reduce scrolling, enhancing the overall user experience when completing surveys. Previously, grid layouts were exclusively available in the Survey123 mobile app. Our users have enthusiastically embraced this feature, frequently requesting its inclusion in the Survey123 web app. We are excited to announce that with this release of Survey123, grid layouts created in Survey123 Connect are now fully supported in the web app. This enhancement empowers you to design more flexible and visually engaging surveys for web sharing. In addition to grid layouts, we’ve introduced the “width” parameter, allowing you to control the width of your form. For example, you can now design forms that make the most of widescreen monitors, providing an optimized viewing experience. To adjust the form width as needed, you can use the ?width= parameter. Enhanced Language Support in Translation Assistant (Beta) We are excited to announce that the web designer now supports a wider range of languages for translating your survey designs. The translation assistant (beta) feature enables a survey designer to effortlessly translate question labels, choices, hints, and all text within your form into another languages using advanced machine translation. This feature has been implemented with strict adherence to privacy and security guidelines, ensuring that no data is ever shared with third parties. The translation service previously supported over 42 languages. With this release, we are thrilled to announce support for over 100 languages! Currently utilizing the Microsoft AI Translator, please refer to the detailed table for a complete list of supported languages. New Sign-In URL Parameter for Public Surveys The Survey123 web app now includes a new signIn URL parameter that facilitates sign-in for public surveys.  By default, the web app does not offer a sign-in option for public surveys. However, some features, such as the ability to extract a signed-in user’s email address through calculations, require user authentication. With the new signIn URL (signIn=show) parameter, you can easily display a sign-in button in the navigation bar at the top of the web app. By adding the required option (signIn=require), users will be guided to sign in with a redirect to the sign-in page. This enhancement provides greater flexibility for distributing public surveys while enabling access to features that are available only to signed-in users. ArcGIS organization setting to enable Survey123 AI assistants This past year we have brought new AI assistants (beta) to Survey123, to enhance survey design and functionality in several ways: Use a chat conversation to assist in designing surveys within the web designer. Extract valuable information from images directly in the web app. Translate survey designs seamlessly in both the web designer and Connect. The Survey123 AI assistants utilize advanced large language model (LLM) and machine learning technologies, specifically leveraging the Microsoft Azure OpenAI service  for the assistant and the Microsoft Azure AI Translator Service for translation tasks. Rest assured, these assistants adhere to data security and privacy guidelines established by ArcGIS Online. In the latest release of Survey123 and ArcGIS Online, these capabilities are disabled by default and can only be activated by an organization administrator who opts in.  To find this setting the ArcGIS organizaiton administrator needs to navigate to Organization | Settings | AI Assistants. In addition to the ArcGIS Online AI organizational settings, an administrator can still manage  individual capabilities on the Survey123 website | Organization tab | Extensions tab. New persistent offline default map in the Survey123 mobile app The Survey123 mobile app now includes a new persistent offline default map, designed to enhance your experience when working without an internet connection while capturing geographic feature data. The new offline provides a simple reference map of the entire world. This map is stored as a vector tile package (VTPK), ensuring it occupies minimal disk space while providing valuable context for your data collection efforts. Other fixes and improvements include the following: Survey123 field app Reliability has been improved when sending location sharing records. Fix for issues:  Calculation mode parameter value of always did not work as expected for date questions. Choices with date labels did not display the date in the expected format. Location could not be captured in surveys that were opened from the Drafts folder. Survey123 Connect Fixed issue which surveys could not be updated if they had been moved out of the folder they were published to. Support was added for querying the submission URL with the pulldata(“@property”) function. Survey123 website and web app Summary information for Location list questions is now shown on the Analyze page. The survey footer can include images and formatted text, including links. When there is no map question or no geometry values in the survey, the overview map is collapsed by default on the Data page. A warning message is displayed when the ArcGIS organization is in read-only mode. When printing a report, the report template file name is used to name generated reports instead of the survey name. A bug was fixed in which reports would fail when the template included a map and the web map contained a large amount of data. The Survey123 assistant (beta) better distinguishes between an existing survey design that is being modified and a new survey that is being created. Video files added to a File upload question can be previewed. Other enhancements and bug fixes – Website, web app and report service ENH-000141114 Allow for including images in a Survey123 form built using the web designer without requiring the images be shared with Everyone BUG-000170893 When using a hosted feature layer from ArcGIS Online as the source for a drop-down question in the ArcGIS Survey123 web designer, the drop-down list is not populated in the ArcGIS Survey123 field app BUG-000147659 The stakeholder or results view layer created from the ArcGIS Survey123 Collaborate tab generates a duplicate table in ArcGIS Online if the survey uses a hosted table BUG-000170825 When the results view layer created from the ArcGIS Survey123 Collaborate tab generates a duplicate table in ArcGIS Online, the survey’s Analyze tab either gets “Cannot get necessary XForms file for the survey” or loads indefinitely if we access the Analyze tab with a non-admin & non-owner account DE-000007576 BUG-000134099 ArcGIS Survey123 website does not load the survey when the user owns more than a certain number of Access and update capability groups BUG-000144878 When generating a feature report from the ArcGIS Survey123 web app, the report fails when the template includes a map question and the web map contains large datasets DE-000003744 ENH-000130822 Make the grid theme available in Survey123 when submitting responses through a web browser ENH-000155146 Provide the functionality to play a video in Survey123 web form after is selected in a file question Update January 21, 2024 This update includes changes to the Survey123 field app on iOS.
