I get this error when embedding my survey into an embed element: Editing is not possible because the globalId parameter was not provided

URL I am using: https://survey123.arcgis.com/share/e1b5cc74f6b5454088f925fcef4bc6d2?mode=edit&globalId={globalid}

It seems that the last part of the URL has changed from ={globalid} to ={field/globalid}

The change was automatically applied in existing applications but anything new I do, I must use this new syntax.

Hi Elizabeth, I am trying to apply this to my web parameter but I am still getting the same error (editing and everything is enabled). If I were to retrieve a specific survey entry, would it look like this: ...globalId={globalid/<uniqueGlobalID>}

@Chris3030 your entry should look like globalId={field/globalid}

I got the same error and I got the solution hope it will work for you also. I am trying to edit the survey response in the dashboard. I do the following procedure.

1. Add Embedded Content.

2.Choose feature in Type and then select the layer

3. Then select the URL at the end of the URL I choose global ID From field.

It works for me

I'm having an issue now where the survey is not loading upon select. The user is supposed to click on the point on the chart on the left and the existing survey values should populate using the "survey" widget in Experience Builder. Although it was showing the "Editing is not possible because the globalid parameter was not provided" message, it was still loading the values in the survey fields below. I tried turning off and on editing to "reset" the forms and following the instructions from the Esri documentation. I also tried embedding the survey instead of using the "survey" widget. The data source that is used in the chart is the hosted feature layer from the same survey.

So, I was getting this error in Experience Builder too...The fix that I found was to delete the widget all together and added a new one and linked the Survey. It was working fine a week ago. Today, all of the surveys are back to giving this error. Nothing was changed in any settings. All of them were the same and haven't been touched. Back to banging my head against the wall, I guess.

@CaseyChilders I assume you are editing an existing record via the survey? The message doesn't disappear until you select a record to start "editing".
