Edit Existing Survey123 Record through app

[Savannah2019]

I need help creating a url to open an existing record in survey123 from field maps. I can get it to open a new record and populate certain fields automatically, but whenever I try to open it to edit an existing record, I just get a never-ending loop of "downloading survey" and "downloading thumbnail". 

This is what I'm using:

 https://survey123.arcgis.app?itemID=<itemID>?mode=edit&globalID={globalID}

The "mode=edit" parameter only applies to the web form. The best you can do with the field app URL is to specify the folder and include a filter. I've noticed that if your filter only returns a single record, it will automatically open the form.

https://survey123.arcgis.app?itemID=<itemID>&folder=inbox&action=edit&filter={globalid}

In order to open your existing record using the Survey123 Field App, not the Web App, we have found the following method works to edit existing records:

Launch S123

arcgis-survey123://

Identify the survey to open

?itemID=<item id>

Specify the survey

&q:globalId=<global id>

Edit an existing survey

&action=edit

Refresh the Inbox (even though you may not even have Inbox enabled, this seems to be needed for things to work correctly)

&update=true

Example:

arcgis-survey123://?itemID=8d1361ae1cdb48a5b3a67b2bd18e571d&q:globalId=b57f5451-7d2d-4a8a-9a48-c293e85d7543&action=edit&update=true

For anyone else who comes across this, the specific problem of the never-ending unpacking loop here is caused by two question marks in the URL. The only question mark should be the one before itemID (or whatever the first parameter is); all other parameters should be preceded by an ampersand (&).

(The other responses address the question of the correct parameters to use, I'm only commenting on the never-ending unpacking loop issue.)
