Get coordinates of photo attachments for related table form in survey123

Question

I have a relationship class between spatial polygons and a non-spatial table. I am performing inspections with survey123 where survey responses populate the non-spatial inspections table.

Within the form, users are able to attach a photo, is it possible to get the coordinates of the photo into a latitude and longitude field.

I have tried:

calculatelatLatpulldata("@exif", ${photo}, "GpsLatitude")esriFieldTypeDoublecalculatelonLonpulldata("@exif", ${photo}, "GpsLongitude")esriFieldTypeDouble

but that didn't work

Is this an iPad maybe?

If so make sure the photo settings are on Most Compatible vs High Efficiency.  It has issues getting coordinates when in High Efficiency.

Also could be the photo app does not have location permissions?

Or it could be a iPad that is WiFi only?

Download the image and look at it in Windows to see if it has any lat/long in the exif at all.  If you attach a photo in windows or a something like that then it would not have GPS also of course.

This is my xls form:

Weirdly, latitude and longitude were calculated for the photo only when both Hazards = Yes and Incidents = Yes

I don't know why that wouldn't work for you.  I use this regularly in the exact same context without issue:
