So that people with Roles that allow them to change ownership don't think they can change ownership of a Survey. I've seen where one person does all the publishing and sharing of the Analyze capability and often others want to take ownership when that person moves on to other projects. The documentation page used to say it's not recommended to change ownership. Is that still the case?</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 30 Apr 2018 15:18:25 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/is-there-a-way-to-lock-my-survey-and-prevent/m-p/764064#M2006 Anonymous User 2018-04-30T15:18:25Z Re: Is there a way to lock my survey and prevent ownership change? https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/is-there-a-way-to-lock-my-survey-and-prevent/m-p/764065#M2007 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Fern,</P><P></P><P>Unfortunately, there isn't a setting available to prevent ownership change. &nbsp;Yes, changing ownership does cause a problem when the survey needs to be republished - the folder the form is stored in is kept in the .iteminfo file. &nbsp;It is possible to update that manually to reflect ownership changes.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 30 Apr 2018 16:04:52 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/is-there-a-way-to-lock-my-survey-and-prevent/m-p/764065#M2007 JamesTedrick 2018-04-30T16:04:52Z
