Pulldata() - Media Folder to Pre-Load CSV Data

branden_villalonaVillalona — Tue, 14 Jan 2020 17:33:17 GMT

I am attempting, for the first time, to pre-load CSV data into my survey via Survey123 Connect. Rookie question here: I cannot find the Media Folder for the survey, where I am supposed to drop my CSV data. I am a user of an Enterprise Account, and we store all our services in AGOL... is that why I cannot find the Media Folder on my machine?

survey123 connect creates a media folder by default here:
C:\Users\[username]\ArcGIS\My Survey Designs\[form name]\media
have you looked here?

you can also click the files icon in survey123 connect:

Wait - there wasn't a media folder in there. I created one but that doesn't seem to be what it wants. How can I get it to generate the media folder so I have a spot to drop my CSV? I'm working hard to get addresses to autopopulate, and of course some random weird thing makes this way harder than it should be.

Hi Branden,

Try create a new survey from the existing .xlsx file. This will force Survey123 Connect regenerate a new folder for it which should contain the 'media' folder.

Cheers,
