uploading data to survey123

Anonymous User — Thu, 17 Aug 2017 17:15:20 GMT

I have revised a survey several times, every time it has deleted my previously collected data. Thankfully I have exported prior to re-published my survey. Is there any way to take those CSV files and loading them back into my dataset in Survey123?

Thanks in Advance,

Beth

I hadn’t seen this so thank you Joe. Unfortunately I don’t have access to ArcGIS Pro and don’t know Python either.

Thanks for checking in,

OK - your last name is Wood and your a Silviculturist!

Secondly - As James states, "...simply using the Append geoprocessing tool". There is no need to know python. Just use the Append tool in Pro against the hosted feature service in ArcGIS Online. The mention of python was for those who may be interested in automating the process for convenience.

Any way you can ask to have Pro installed? It's the wave of the future and free with ArcGIS Desktop.

If she is working for the USFS, then they might not have access to ArcGIS PRO in her office location. However, her discussion with her supervisor should be, "We receive one ArcGIS PRO user license for every ArcGIS desktop license we have within our ESRI license agreement! So, I think it should be no problem to have this free software installed?"

The FS is moving away from desktop versions of GIS and is using it through a Citrix based server, is there anyway to use Pro with that?

Hi Elizabeth,

Yes, Pro can work in a Citrix environment.
