Can I add sort to the data in Inbox?

You can click on the sort icon and get the following options:

I see... Is there a way to add sort on the query in the Inbox option? I tried to add ORDER BY but didn't work.

How does Survey123 (not connect) decide which fields to use for the Ascending / Descending decision? i.e. Can I control which fields to use for these Ascending and Descending Sort options without using Survey123 Connect?

 The ORDERBY in your WHERE statement will be overruled by the app sort options @DeonLengton showed.

I see. I tested the sort in Inbox, and found it sorts by what it appears in there (the instance name). Also if the date is in word (like april, may...) it sort by the letter; April comes before January. Is this right?

Above, I sorted descending

Hi 

Yes that is correct, it sorts alphabetically, not by the data in your records.

If you want to sort by date you could potentially format the date in your instance name to be dd/mm/yyyy

Thanks for the reply. I will adjust my instance name.
