Pulling Device ID from users so that they don't have to repeatedly read disclaimer and put name and email in

ChristineTombleson1

Hello,

I have a Survey123 Connect survey that collects a user's name and email address and requires them to confirm (by selecting "Yes") that they have read a disclaimer. After these fields, there are nested repeat questions.

I would like Survey123 to remember the device ID so that on subsequent uses, it:

• Automatically skips the disclaimer question by setting it to "Yes"
• Auto-fills the name and email fields with the values previously entered on that device

Is this possible? I have spent hours trying to make it work but haven’t had any success. I’ve attached my XLS form—if anyone could take a look and provide guidance, I would greatly appreciate it. It has been a pain point for users to repeatedly re-enter their information and confirm the disclaimer each time.

Thank you!

Assuming you save the device ID in the results, you can pull data from the previously submitted surveys using the pulldata function to see if the device has a survey logged. In theory you can pull the entire previous survey into a set of fields, then use another set of fields to coalesce that with the current answers to get the final question set, but this will make the survey much more difficult to maintain so you'll have to weigh the pros and cons.
