Pulldata how to make this query run each time a new record is added?

[kmsmikrud]

Hello,

I have a pulldata statement in the survey123 form which basically returns the maximum value of an attribute of a hosted AGOL feature layer. This form is used online. BUT currently it seems to only pulldata once even when a new record is submitted and you add a second record. I understand the pulldata function runs when the form opens but doesn't run each time a new record is collected which is what I would like. Our current workaround is to open/close the app to get that value to update.

I've tried adding a calculation for uuid() early in the form to force a refresh.

Any ideas? Basically we are pulling the max value from the hosted feature layer attribute to populate a sampleID value.

Thanks in advance,

Kathy

Thank-you @Neal_t_k ! It looks like that is exactly the issue/Bug I was trying to resolve. Thanks so much.

I've been trying the work around since apparently the status is 'As Designed' but for the moment we might have to continue to open/close the app to run the query since the workarounds I've been trying make it not calculate at all :(.   

Regardless thanks for sharing this information, its knowledge to know that its functioning even if its not how I want it too.

Thanks,

Kathy
