Survey123 pulldata password unseen

Peters_Amy

Is it possible, when using the pulldata function to reference a csv that has a username and password, to replace the password with asterisks so that the password can not be read in the survey? If there are onlookers while the survey is being filled out, it would be best to secure the password by not showing it as a clear word on the screen.

Hi Amy,

Masking a password entry in the manor you described is not supported by the app.

One of the reasons for this is that form item and feature service access is controlled via the privileges of ArcGIS named user that is signed into the app, and the password is only entered on initial sign-in (the UI does mask the password in this case).

It would be good to get a better understanding of your workflow so we can make a call on whether this would be an appropriate enhancement, or suggest an alternative method.

Thanks

John
