How can I modify the name of the photos in Survey 123. Or make the process automatically using some previous information? is there any option to get the photos' name in a column in the csv downloaded?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi Jeronimo,
In the Survey123 app, it's possible to rename photos when you add them via the camera or gallery by tapping on the name of the image.
I don't think it's possible to change an image's name based on previous information, the name of a photo is assigned by the image question name which is static - maybe the name can be used better to label the photos? PropertyPhoto instead of Photo1 for example.

It is possible, but cconnollyesriuk-esridist my users are having issues where the name of the jpg won't save/hold if there is no space after the name (eg: trash near dumpster .jpg) or uses certain words (eg: dumpster)
Hi Carl,
One possible issue is that the photos are all stored in the same folder in the app- if people are using the same or similar names, I can imagine some errors on saving might be occurring.
Thank you James for the quick response. I will your hypothesis with my users and return with results.
Hi cqholt are you able to post your solution for renaming photos in survey123 please, it would be useful to see how you did it. Cheers Andrew
cqholt, the question was not "if" but "how" 😉 I am also looking for a way to do it, because I assume it can't be too difficult, but I don't know how.
Maybe JTedrick-esristaff can shade a Iight on how to do it?
Hi Nicole,
Carmel's response is correct - manual renaming is available by clicking on the name of a photo after it is captured.
I understood cqholt's answer as he found a way to rename the pictures automatically depending on other fields. It would save us a lot of time...
Has there been any update on this? Is there a way to populate the name of the image based on a previous answer?
