Option to toggle off "save to my ArcGIS account" when generating Survey123 reports - old functionality taken away?

My attention was brought to this post today and I noticed in one of the comments, @KellyArmstrong posted this screenshot:

That comment was from September 2021. I've actually never noticed that toggle button before, this is what the interface looks like currently for me:

So my question is, was that toggle button functionality for saving to the ArcGIS account taken away at some point? It would be VERY useful to have the option to only have to save the generated reports locally instead of saving them to our organization content.

You find now the option Skip and don't save this report when clicking on the small settings wheel next to the Save into my account option:

Ah ok - thanks for the response! Is there a way to have it set to that setting by default?

ACTUALLY @Nicole_Ueberschär I was excited and thought that would address things, but it seems that setting is only for NAMING CONFLICTS. I tested with generating a new report, with that option selected, but the report title had a unique name and it was still added to my organizational content.

So, it appears the functionality was indeed taken away?

Ha!🤔 I have to admit that I didn't test it. From the wording I was assuming that it would not save it. I agree with you and most of the cases I found it totally unnecessary to save the report in my content.

@IsmaelChivite Do you know the status of this functionality? Was it removed, or is it still possible to turn this option off?

Did anyone ever figure this out @Katie_Clark ?

I hadn't given it much thought for a while since I had moved on to other projects, but I just checked again and it seems to be the same behavior as described before, unfortunately. 😞
