Hmmm, I tried using the syntax "query allowUpdates=true calculationMode=always" and it didn't return the coordinate value when I opened the survey in the inbox. (it does retrieve as expected when I only use "query allowUpdates=true".)
For additional context, these Latitude and Longitude fields are pulling values from a geopoint question with a null field type, because I have multiple geopoint questions in my survey. The behavior I'd ultimately like to see is that the fields populate with coordinates when a location is selected on the map in the survey. This point won't be recorded due to the null field type, but the coordinates will. When a user reopens this survey in the inbox if they need to edit something, the coordinates will appear from the original time they selected a location. However, if they click on the map for the null geopoint question and select a new location, I want these coordinates to be updated (hence the calculationMode set to always). I found that without this, these values weren't updating even when a new location was selected in the map.
Now that I think about this more, perhaps the calculationMode being set to always is overwriting the value being returned, since the geopoint itself isn't saved so it thinks it doesn't have any geometry input yet.
Is there a better way to go about doing this? I was honestly surprised that the coordinates didn't update automatically when a new location was entered, since I thought "calculatioMode=auto" was the default mode for calculations in a survey?
Best,
Katie
