Hi Naomi, Can you share your XLSForm or an example that also shows this?  I tried a sample form that has a note with a relevant statement, but wasn't able to duplicate the issue. ... View more

Hi Chaim, You are correct that the globalID is not generated until the submission of the feature to service, though relationships are maintained until that point. ... View more

Hi Ryan, The location is stored in a geometry (also called shape) field in your table.  There are a few ways to address this issue; the easiest (if somewhat more tedious) would be to edit the points in the ArcGIS Online Map Viewer, which will allow you to 'snap' them together; see Edit features—ArcGIS Online Help | Documentation. Some difference in the point location is to be expected if you are using the GPS location as your point, as there is always some inaccuracy in a GPS reading; this creates a 'cloud' of points that represent the location.  In the future, you can set up your form to account for this: - If you already know the locations, you can calculate the location based on a question ('Which site is this?'), there are a couple of 'Calculate Location' samples in Survey123 Connect to use as a guide (this can also work after getting the location after the first survey and updating the form) - You could structure the form as 2 tables - an 'inventory' part that is recorded on discover and an 'inspection' part that you fill out every time you visit. This makes use of a repeat section to create the inspection part and the Inbox to allow for updating the record with new inspections.  See Prepare for editing existing survey data—Survey123 for ArcGIS | Documentation for details (this is also going to be covered in the first part of the 'Advanced XLSForm Techniques' recording from our Developer's Summit, which should be available in a few days at Esri Events - YouTube  ). ...

Hi Rhonda, Looking into this, it appears that the issue may have been due to a database reserved word being used as a field name.  Normally, the Survey123 template will flag this if you use a reserved word. ... View more

To note, I am following up with Blythe directly on this matter. ... View more

Hi Alexandre, As Peter mentioned, Survey123 can record the username of the person filling out the form (provided they have logged in).  What are you referring to when you mention a 'guest login'?  The main way we would encourage the user of a data collection application in a semi-known user environment is through ArcGIS Hub. There can be rate limiting in certain circumstances for a feature service; the 'Limit Usage of secured services' section of ArcGIS Server web services—ArcGIS Online Help | Documentation  provides some details on this.  ...

Hi Zachary, The one thing I would check is the exact naming of the field (upper/lower case)- perhaps put it into the arcade script through the tools in the Arcade editor?  ... View more

Hi Dan, Without seeing the XLS file, I can't be sure, but this sounds like expected behavior since you are not loading the existing records via the Inbox.  When a form is loaded from the Inbox, questions with calculations have their value compared against the calculated value; if different, the calculation is disengaged from the question and the value retained.  This is done from the presumption that the existing value was manually input to override the calculation.  If you're loading the form without the previous values, the question with sum() will clearly not equal the sum() calculation (which would be 0).  There are a couple of ways to get the behavior (a running total) you want: - load the existing repeats in by using the query keyword in the bind::Esri:parameters column along with the allowUpdates - Generate the running total dynamically using Arcade via the FeatureSet functionality ...

Hi Robert, This can be done in a couple of ways. If you need new records in the past 24 hours, look at the DateDiff function and use a if/else block to assign 1/0 based on that: Date Functions | ArcGIS for Developers  If you need to match the exact date, I would use the Day(), Month(), and Year() functions to compare the values to today: var today = Now(); var theDate = Date($feature.CreationDate); if (Day(today) == Day(theDate) && Month(today) == Month(theDate) &&Year(today) == Year(theDate)) { return 1; } return 0; ...

Hi Dan, There is not any update on allowing public surveys to use the Inbox.  From your description, it sounds like you don't want a truly public survey, you would want to restrict it to just your crop specialists. ... View more

Hi Charles, I've noted this as a future enhancement.  I'm not sure what you are referring to by being mentioned repeatedly in the documentation?  This would be an EXIF property; the watermark routine accesses the location information from the same data source that writes the location information into EXIF (it's not reading from the image). ...

Hi Steven, I'm not sure what behavior you are asking about? ... View more

Hi Eric, As I mentioned above, that is the intended behavior of the field app - the existing date time value is preserved as it differs from what the calculation 'now()' would be.  I would suggest changing it to a 'start' question. ... View more
