Limiting number of displayed characters for a feature in a report

[thoughtsponge1]

I am trying to generate a report on the Survey123 online site and I had a question regarding the formatting of my template.  Is there a way to display a certain # of characters from a feature label, but not the entire label? Let's say the label is "2.3.1 - soil and hydrology".  Is there a way to have the report only show, "2.3.1" and not the entire label?

I don't think it's possible to dictate this within the report template itself (as far as I know at least...) but you could have a hidden question in your survey and populate that with the value you want from the report using a custom JavaScript function for string slicing. That's my first thoughts anyway 🙂

It would be much easier if I could figure out how to do an equivalent to the ${feature | getValue: ""} for summary reports.  It works for regular reports, but the moment I try to it in a summary report I get a parsing error when I try to upload the template.

I only just made my first summary report a couple days ago, so I'm not used to the nuances specific to that vs. a regular report yet. What specific error are you getting?

[thoughtsponge1]

"Error: An error occurred when checking the report template. Failed to parse ${vent_ | getValue:""} since printing a map/image or accessing attachment binary is not allowed when iterating records inside a summary section."

It's just a string, so I'm confused as to why it can't do it.
