Hi, I discovered what the issue was. I had some pull data formulas that were looking for CVS files that were missing. I removed the formulas as they were not necessary and it works now. Josh Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

All, Is it possible in Survey123 to grab the address from a geopoint question and have that auto populate a Text Field question ${Address}? What i'm after is saving the user from having to manually type in the address. Has anyone successfully done this? Thanks, Josh

Hi James, I removed the note name values and it seems like it works now just fine. I don’t get the data error anymore and the links are working as they should. I’ll continue to do some more testing but I’d say that has fixed it. Thanks, Josh

All, I am having an issue with a google maps url causing data errors that is prevent editing of the survey data. The Url that i am using is so the crews editing existing data can launch google map for driving directions. I originally copied the following expression esri's support page. FAQ: Is it possible to view a geopoint location from Survey123 Connect for ArcGIS in Google Maps? The expression in my survey form. concat('<a href="https://www.google.com/maps?daddr=',pulldata ("@geopoint", ${Gps_Coord}, "y"), ',' ,pulldata("@geopoint", ${Gps_Coord}, "x"), concat('&ll=">Click to open google maps</a>')) The issue seems to be the " qoute marks for "https and =">. This is causing some sort of data error that makes it impossible to edit any of the attributes for the survey. If i remove the quotes then there is no data error but then the link no longer works in the survey field app. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I have esri support looking into it. Josh

Secondly, are you saying assignments should so in the Survey123 Inbox? Why not use Workforce for ArcGIS and configure a Survey123 form to allow users to submit assignments and assign them that way if they absolutely need to do so in the field? Hi Marvin, . I do not have much experience using Workforce but from what I've gathered tinkering with it, it doesn't seem to work offline. If there is a way to do this in an offline environment i would be interested but i don't know what type of workflows that would create for crews or the lonewolf gis guy (me). I would say that my primary concern is connectivity, our system is very rural. Also, I am looking for a simple no frills system that is rock solid dependable for offline use and that doesn't require a lot of processing from my end. I first tried collector but couldn't get it to work for offline use. I settled on Survey123 because i have a history with it and the inbox will give my vegetation management contractors a simple method of receiving and completing their work in an offline environment. The only thing that they are not able to do is see the pictures taken from the inspectors. The other part adding pictures without needing a repeat would be a bonus but i agree with you there is a workaround, i've just never tried to use it because i try to avoid related tables whenever possible.

It would be very helpful to be able to view existing photo's and add new photo's to surveys that have already been sent. Proposed Workflow Existing data gets created by inspectors submitting surveys and assigning work to a contractor. Contractor receives work assigned through the inbox. The contractor is currently unable to view any photo's taken by the inspector or add new ones. I am proposing to allow existing photos to be viewable and to be able to add new photo's to a sent survey with ought having to use a repeat. An editor should be able to tap on the photo and have it expand to the full screen of the device with the ability to zoom and pan around also. Josh

I am having an issue where work being assigned through a web app is showing up when collector is synced. I am attempting to set up a work flow where field inspectors collect date through survey123, the data is then reviewed and assigned through a web app to a contractor who would view and edit using collector. Due to issues with Collector in Offline not handling copied layers i am having to do everything through view layers. The end user want the work broken down into multiple layers. The issue i am having relates to the contractor receiving their daily work using collector offline. Our service area connectivity is very poor so offline use is a must. When the work is assigned it is not coming over to collector despite the assigned locations being clearly visible in the web map. I'm not sure if this is due to the view layers a bug or something else. I have played around with refresh rates, recreating view layers but that hasn't fixed it. Is anyone else using a setup similar to this for collecting data and pushing it to a contractor??? My Work Flow Is Something Like This... A B C Survey123 Feature Service > > Reviewer Map View Layers > > Reviewed and Assigned Using Web Map & App D E F > > Survey123 Feature Service > >Contractor Map View Layers > > Contractor Web Map Thanks, Josh

Any idea of when this bug will be addressed? I hope soon because this has completely ruled out using survey123 for editing work if you need to be able to limit editors to only specific work assigned to them. Does anyone have any workaround for such a scenario?

I haven’t. I will check this out!

This is a significant concern for my organization as well. AGOL needs a "easy to use" single push button to download a back up or your organization or ESRI needs to have a back up on their servers and give users a restore option. Reminds me of the old Windows PC Create a Restore Point option.

This is definitely a bug issue and it is beginning to cause issues for my companies work flows. I have a webmap with 6 view layers that pull from a single survey123 feature service. Everything displays correctly on the webmap but on collector (ios or android) not one view layer displays. The view layers were an attempt at a work around because I discovered that a differently bug or limitation does not allow you add copied layers. I need to be able to break down a Survey123 feature service into multiple layers for my field crews who use collector. Is there any hope that this bug will be fixed soon? Thanks! Josh

I see that now. Makes sense I guess that I wouldn’t work it is reserved. Just wish they would give a warning when you try to publish. Thanks, Josh

Not sure if this is a known bug or a new one but there seems to be a bug with date type questions when the field name is "Date" and you want to make the field not editable in a webmap. What I am seeing is the edit check box under configure popup is defaulted to editable but is grayed out so you cannot change it. You can uncheck Display but it still shows up as editable in the webmaps popup and in collector. This does not seem to happen if i name the field name is anything other than "Date". I have attached a survey excel file that i used to test this one. So far I've only seen this with the date type question. Josh

Phil, Here is a screen shot of what i get with Method #1. Method #2 with collector is now working. It was likely the thousands separator issue.

Phil, I'm actually trying to do this 2 different ways to appease 2 different inspector groups. For the time being i'm concentrating on getting Method #1 up and running. Method #1 I want to be able to open the attached Right of Way survey from the attached System Patrol Survey all within Survey123 and pass over the Location_ID field to the Location field in the Right of Way survey. I am attempting to use a URL that looks like this. Both Location and Location_ID fields are integer fields. arcgis-survey123://?itemID=fe8bc0d1f738450eb2a40f8b0e07a827&field:Survey_Type=Hazard_Tree&field:Location={Location_ID} Hazard_Tree_Survey Launch_Survey Method #2 2) This is lower priority. I want to be able to open the Right of Way Survey from the Collector app and pass over a LocationID field from a separate hosted feature to the Location field in the Right of Way Survey. I have a webmap built from the Right of Way Survey feature service because some inspectors prefer Collector for navigating. They want to be able to initiate a new survey when they select a pole and have the pole number go over to the survey. I'm not sure how i would go about copying the webmap and service layer for you to see. Thanks, Josh
