How to export Survey123 data using C#

NicolasRoger — Sat, 11 Dec 2021 09:49:50 GMT

I have found that there exist some python script to export Survey123 data to your computer. Is there any similar code using the C# language with the ArcGIS Runtime SDK version 100.2.1?

I am trying to follow this link: Access the ArcGIS platform—ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET (WPF) | ArcGIS for Developers

But my application crash at the first line ( ArcGISPortal portal = await ArcGISPortal.CreateAsync(); )

Error code is the following:

"Une erreur s'est produite lors de l'envoi de la demande." System.Exception {System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException}

Any idea why?

EDIT: I found additionnal information about the error:

Proxy Authentication Required ( The ISA Server requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy filter is denied. )

EDIT: All problems solved. Here is the complete c# code to extract and delete the data (make sure you install and reference the arcgis Runtime .Net sdk and newtonSoft.JSON):

Ok I found what was causing the error.

Here is how to solve it: Add this line at the beginning fo your code:

WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;‍

That's it! I am now able to connect to ArcGIS portals.

I should be able to figure out the rest.
