Survey123 - Multiple choice selections as separate entries not comma separated list

[JessicaRouns]

Currently, if a user selects multiple options in a multiple choice list, this will result in a comma separated list of all selected options. This does not work well when presenting the results in a dashboard. Preferably, all the selected options would be added separately and therefore present more cleanly in a dashboard.

You can either have 1 field with comma separated values or use a repeat and have multiple rows.  Where would the data go otherwise in the database schema?

Data Expressions should be able to do what you want.  This one has a example just like you want  https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/ops-dashboard/announcements/introducing-data-expressions-i...

If you're working with a dashboard i'm sure it's possible to use an Arcade expression with something like a split function to return the seperated data as you need.

Idea: In your Survey123 design, you can add hidden fields (one for each option in your list) to keep track of which choices were selected. The technique is described in this blog:

Check the selected(question, value) section

@ZoeBroek You can do this with Survey123 Connect, but not with the web app. Unfortunately we do not have access to Connect.

@IsmaelChivite Thanks Ismael, unfortunately though I don 't have access to Connect. I was hoping something similar could be an option for the web version of Survey123.

@JessicaRouns I'm sorry I meant define the expression in the ArcGIS Dashboard itself. If you load in data you can use a data expression which uses Arcade.
