Make the Auto Populate Field uneditable

[aam]

I've finally figured out how to auto-populate a Field in Survey123 form when the user clicks on a point in the Web Map. However, I am facing another hurdle now, the auto-populated field is editable and the users can change or delete the attribute.

Is there a way to make that field not editable?

Are you using Survey123 Connect, or the web version? In Connect, you can simply set a "read only" flag on any question, that way users cannot alter a populated value.

awesome, got it. One more thing, is it possible to auto-populate Date Field. So when the user fills out a Survey it auto-generates the date of submission, instead of them choosing the date.

In Survey123 Connect, that you can create a question with the type end that records when they finished their survey. This would also correspond to the created_date field, if editor tracking is enabled for the layer, and you could simply use that instead.
