Hello,
Is using Google Maps layers in Survey123 allowed by Google's TOS? I know that they do not allow it for webmaps (ArcGIS Online or Server).
I am not sure if it is allowed in Survey123.
Esri has Google maps tiles listed in the following link: http://doc.arcgis.com/en/survey123/desktop/create-surveys/includemap.htm#GUID-31B9C45D-8D07-4F0F-A33...
I have looked over Google's TOS before, (Link), and I believe the answer to my question is no. The snippet below is from Section 3 item e.
Thank you,
Chris

Hi Chris,
You are correct, using Google maps without permission and agreement with Google is not allowed. To avoid confusion we have removed the example from our documentation, this will be reflected in the next release.

Thank you,
I wasn't trying to remove a really cool feature, just to make sure Google wouldn't come after me. haha
It would be cool if Esri reached out to Google to allow this, though.
