    <title>topic Wildlife observations missing data- can I access metadata somehow? in ArcGIS QuickCapture Questions</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi, I am using QuickCapture for a project as a part of my masters. For the project I am walking a transect through a grassland and logging observations of specific bird species. I sued the "wildlife reporter (mobile view)" off AGOL as a basis and built off of it. I created custom buttons for each species and did not realize that the button's label would not be recorded as a variable. So now, after my first round of surveying with QC I have data that is incomplete. Instead of my 'bird species x sex' format that was written in the label, it just says giraffe, elephant, bison... Now I can deduce the species from these observations but not the sexes and I need that information. Is there anyway to get the metadata for which button each observation is connected to after the fact? Or can I update the survey and get the new labels associated with each data point if I leave the buttons themselves and just change the label? This is very important for me so if I could get a hand that would be life saving- thank you!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
