geopoint type question managment

CédricVilleneuve — Fri, 02 Oct 2020 17:33:02 GMT

Hi every one,

I know we cannot have multiple geopoint set as point shape but since I fugured we could put esritype:bind to null I've set many questions in my survey as geopoint so I could get more than one place to capture the localisation of what I describe. The problem is the following: as I do not get a point shape where is the coordinates are stoked? In the form I have that little map with a pin but once I sync the form, the table as no coordinates field..... Where is this info I capture via geopoint question?

Thanks a lot

If you set the fieldType to null, the question value is stored in your device but never sent to your feature layer.

If you want to persist the XY Coordinates in your feature layer as attributes, do something like this

type	name	label	appearance	calculation	bind::esri:fieldType
geopoint	location	Location			null
decimal	coord_x	X	hidden	pulldata("@geopoint", ${location}, "x")
decimal	coord_y	Y	hidden	pulldata("@geopoint", ${location}, "y")

Alternatively

type	name	label	calculation	bind::esri:fieldType
geopoint	location	Location		null
calculate	coord_x	X	pulldata("@geopoint", ${location}, "x")	esriFieldTypeDouble
calculate	coord_y	Y	pulldata("@geopoint", ${location}, "y")	esriFieldTypeDouble

If I did not do that from the start, is there any way for me to get those value from a form in my Inbox that was already done and sent?

Thanks

If you did not persist the X/Y values in the feature layer I do not see how you could recover these values.

I will take this as a NO hihi.
