While in Survey123 Connect, I downloaded a currently published survey design.  I don't need to make any changes to it or do anything to it for that matter.  How can I remove it locally without affecting/deleting the original stored online.  It was originally created in Connect on someone else's desktop who is no longer with the company.

This is the warning I'm receiving:

I'm relatively green in regard to this, and simply wanted a copy of it to work in.  I realize now that just creating a copy through "save-as" is the better way.

 

Thanks in advance,
Marc

Hello Marc, 

The survey on your local device is stored in C:\Users\<username>\ArcGIS\My Survey Designs. Within that My Survey Designs folder the survey will have a unique ID as the folder name (the item ID for the survey form item). If you have multiple folders with unique ID's if you click into each folder the name of the files inside will be the name of the survey. 

When you find the correct folder for your survey you can delete the folder from your My Survey Designs folder and that will remove it from your local device and not impacting the online version. 

Thank you,
Zach

Zac,

Thank you so much for your reply!  And being that I hadn't downloaded any other designs or created any, that was the only folder.  Thanks again!

Cheers,
Marc
