survey123 editing from inbox creating duplicates

[ARyanWADNR]

Hi all,

I have a survey123 form that has multiple repeats within it. My field staff regularly have to fix issues with surveys that were already submitted to make minor changes. Recently, we have noted that when editing a survey using the mobile app if data is edited in a repeat, that data is being submitted as new records in the related table, with the old records remaining in place. Leaving us with duplicate records for any that were modified.

Is this expected behavior? Is it not possible for data coming from the field app to modify records in the AGOL hosted service?

Thanks for any help!

Do you have this setting on each Begin Repeat line in the bind::esri:parameters column?

query allowUpdates=true

Oh wow!

I recently did a major refresh/update of the survey form which involved adding two new repeats. I missed the bind esri parameter for them! I haven't tested it yet, but that is probably my issue.

Thanks for the fast response! I will test soon and respond if this does fix it.
