Custom DNS for Survey123 Forms

ThomasKonzel — Mon, 18 Apr 2022 16:23:54 GMT

I checked online and in the ESRI Community but I didn't see an answer or question on this topic. Just like the Hub sites can use a custom DNS entry, is there a way for Survey123 to use a custom DNS entry? We would prefer that one of our citizen-facing surveys use our organization's domain name rather than the survey123.arcgis.com domain name. Is this possible?

Hi. You can do that by installing the Survey123 website locally. This is not as straight forward as configuring a custom domain in ArcGIS Hub, but that is how you can do it.

Thank you @IsmaelChivite. It appears that this local Survey123 website can only be installed for Enterprise behind a firewall using a reverse proxy to serve it to the Internet. Is this correct?

Hi @ThomasKonzel The main purpose of the installer is to support completely disconnected environments, but in your case you could install it in a public facing web server so you can benefit from having a custom domain for your Survey123 links.
