Is there a way to have the Survey123 Field App re-open a form after submitting?

Let's say you have a survey that is set to public and you intend on having a single device be set up to collect responses at a fixed location.The device would just be always on and waiting for public users to approach and submit a response.

Is there a way to have a form re-open itself after submission of a response? Ideally in the field app. What would be the best practice for this type of approach?

I think most public-access surveys like this use a browser, and re-set the browser to clear the cache + open the same page again. Probably a bit more robust to take this approach as you would use conventional IT wisdom and a simple webpage based survey.

If you have to do it via the field app, you could try being creating with callback urls. Or the web 'submit another survey page'. Both are a bit more open to users interacting with it.

If you've created the survey in the web version of Survey123 you can set the survey to automatically reload when a survey is submitted.

I appreciate the reply. I may have to look into using the web app for this. Thanks for your help

I would suggest looking into URL parameters if you're using Survey123 Connect. I believe you can add the following to the end of the url:

?autoRefresh=true
