Survey123 Splitting Repeats into separate layer

[BobbiPritt]

When trying to make a survey with a repeating section, the resulting repeat is split into a separate table when the survey is imported as a layer. Is ther a way to prevent this from happening or recombine the tables in map viewer? The survey involves take several pictures and gps coordinates at a single area.

Hi Bobbi,

I see you have started by creating your survey in Web Designer on the website, and then moved to Connect. In this case you should be aware of what changes you can make that will not effect the feature service.

A repeat is a related table/layer to the parent feature layer, and it will always be added this way via Connect when using a begin_repeat question. This is a one to many relationship to allow you to add many records (inspections for example) against the parent feature.
