repeat failing to populate feature service

danbecker — Wed, 17 Jan 2018 00:07:52 GMT

Portal for ArcGIS, publish from Desktop connect to the Portal, hosted feature service.

We have a repeat with this:

type: select_one species_domain

name: species_name

type: integer

name: cover_pcnt

end repeat

The species_domain has about 200 rows on the choices tab.

It seems like whatever I do, the survey never populates the in the hosted feature service. The records are there, but they're blank.

Anyone ever had this before?

Here's the answer:

When publishing to Portal, all field names have to be lower, (I'm assuming this is because my db backend is PostGreSQL). When the field name is within a repeat, survey123 misses the field name check. When the field is moved outside the repeat, then you get the friendly reminder from survey123 when you try to publish.

UGH, learned something today.

Hi Dan

We will get this fixed, and ensure that Connect checks the fields inside of a repeat too.

Cheers
