Submit New Response Is Editing Instead of Creating a New Submission

I have ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1 and am using the web based form of surevy123 where you pass the portal URL in as a parameter.

In my survey design, I checked the option for submit a new response so that the option to create a new submission shows up.

This works as intended when a user submits a new response, and then clicks the link to create another.

However, this is not working as expected when a user is editing a previously submitted response. Following a blog post I found here on the Community site, I have edit links that are created using Arcade so users can reopen their previous submission.

Everything works as expected, except for the submit new response button. This is because the button calls the JS function windows.location.reload(), which refreshes the page but with the same "&edit" parameters.

Are there any workarounds to this so that a new submission page loads after the user edits a previous submission?

I realize the simple answer to manually embed a hardcoded link to the form in the post submission page and then just disable the show option to submit new response.

Looking at your link snippet you have &mode=edit which sets the survey to edit mode once there is a record associated with the Global ID parameter. It looks like the mode only supports edit, view, and copy for the web based forms. I would try leaving out the &mode=edit entirely and see if it forces the survey to start a new record.
