Can I set up an auto-entry / auto-send form in Survey 123?

Question

I have a Python script which pulls down a defined json file every 15 minutes or so from a URL, and extracts specific data on 7 sites.  I'd love to automatically be able to uploaded this information as it comes in and provide a Dashboard or Web App that would provide my client with the required info on an almost real-time basis.  Any suggestions on how this may be done?

Thanks.  I'll take a look at that avenue.

Hi Jackie,

I don't think you would need Survey123 for this - you can submit data directly using a python script.  Using Feature Layers | ArcGIS for Developers can get you started using the ArcGIS API for Python, and if you wanted to work with the underlying REST API directly, Feature Service—ArcGIS REST API: Services Directory | ArcGIS for Developers is the appropriate reference.
