Can you force the delete or update of a survey on a mobile device?

RobBlash

If I need to modify a survey and re-publish is there a way to force delete the old survey from mobile devices? It seems like they survey doesn't check do a self-check to see if it's still valid before you enter data (on Android v2.5.44 at least). So the user can plug in all the info and, if they are paying attention they'll see the submit fails. It doesn't even generate an error popup, it just leaves the survey as a draft.

Hi @OlivierDemars1,

The check for updates to survey forms occurs when the app if first opened, or if you refresh the gallery (by pull down action on gallery). It does not occur on a regular interval automatically once app is open.

You can also see updates by going to Download surveys menu and using the filter icon to only show updated surveys.

Regards,

Phil.

Hi Robert,

Currently, there isn't an author-driven survey management capability. We are looking to bring this into the application in the future.

James, Any news on this *essential* feature?

JamesTedrick

Hi Gavin,

At this time, there is not have any change in the status of this enhancement.

This suggestion has been around since November 2016 and "under consideration" for over a year. Lots of people have explained why it is absolutely necessary.

James Tedrick or Scott Prindle Is there any chance of this EVER getting done?

Hi Gavin,

Yes, we are considering this as a feature for Survey123. That being said, there are additional considerations - for example, the ideas you cite involve different workflows for how an update process should work; in addition to that, there are concerns about the data on the device at the time an update is occurs.

Hi Rob,

Just letting you know we have been working on the survey update notifications feature in the latest Survey123 beta builds available on the Early Adopter Community (EAC). The new workflow will now alert the user in the field app when an updated survey is available, and be displayed on the gallery page, download surveys page and when trying to open a survey that has an update. This enables the user to do an update of the survey before proceeding to collect a new survey record.

Please test out the latest 3.9 beta builds and provide any feedback via the EAC user forums for this new feature. You can find the 3.9 beta announcement with details on EAC.

Regards,

Phil.

Hi Rob,

We have done some more work on survey update notifications feature in the latest Survey123 3.10 beta builds available on the Early Adopter Community (EAC). There is now an option to require users to update the survey, without an option to continue to the survey without update. This can be done in one of two ways, via enabling a setting on a per survey level via the Connect survey settings tab, or this can be set as an organization property which will apply to all surveys in the organization and will over-ride the settings at the survey level if it is disabled.

Please test out the latest 3.10 beta builds and provide any feedback via the EAC user forums for this new feature.

Regards,

Phil.

Hi Philip,

I cannot seem to find any information on the EAC platform about the option to require users to update the survey.

Can you please post a link to the specific documentation on how this is implemented?

Thanks,

...disregard my post above, I downloaded the 3.10 Connect and now see the option in the settings.

Hi Phil,

When does Survey123 actually check for updates? From what I can see it happens at the start and when clicking on Download Surveys. Does it happen regularly once the application is open?

Best regards,

Olivier
