For the ddp solution in layout view in ArcMap add a picture. Give it a dummy pic then go into its properties. At the bottom you will see a DDP page field. Give it the name of the field from Survey123. I use it for signatures no problem so far.

Yea we have been struggling with that a bit too. Wipe sde, download data to a gdb, then load into sde is the only way we could think of also. Unless you get fancy with comparing dates from editor tracking. Had some luck with giving append tool the HFS directly but not always. For now I think we will wait for Portal replication that is slated to come out with 10.5 at the end of the year. It was talked about at the conference.

You can also use ArcRest. Here is my simple script for that. from arcrest.security import AGOLTokenSecurityHandler from arcrest.agol import FeatureService from arcrest.common.filters import LayerDefinitionFilter username = "put here" password = "put here" # Put url to HFS here url = "put here" # The dir to store the GeoDB zip file (it is now a zip with a .gdb in it) outDir = r"put here" # A list of layer numbers you want to download. Get these numbers of the rest details page using the url above layerList = [0,1,2,3,4] #Get a local replica of the HFS proxy_port = None proxy_url = None agolSH = AGOLTokenSecurityHandler(username=username,password=password) fs = FeatureService(url=url, securityHandler=agolSH, proxy_port=proxy_port, proxy_url=proxy_url, initialize=True) result = fs.createReplica(replicaName='Backup', layers=layerList, dataFormat='filegdb', out_path=outDir, wait=False)

I have one form I just made that will not Submit or Save as draft. I hit the buttons and just nothing happens. No error or anything. Form published fine. All my other forms work. Have tried multiple devices (android, ios, and PC) and still nothing. Also in connect the Validate Input does not work - again just nothing happens. It is a simple form. Only thing on this form that is not on other is the or_other option. Any ideas? Excel attached.

All the buttons on Survey123 are pretty small. Esp the one when you X out of a survey and it asks Close and Lose, Continue, Save. Out in the sun those boxes are just plain too close together. Any way to make those thicker or bigger font or something? I do not really want to change all the tablet font size. I personally would make most of the buttons a bit bigger, esp on a tablet. Thanks

If you go into a already sent survey and "edit" it - it actually creates a new survey. This is fine. But once I submit that "edit" in the Sent list it just shows the latest edit not all the other versions that were submitted. So I might have submitted 5 copies but it looks like I only sent 1. Is there a way to change this? I would rather see ALL the copies that have ever been sent. That way I know I sent one on the 8/8, 8/9/ 8/10, etc. For now all i can see is the last one sent. Thanks

I have a HFS that will suddenly not let me edit any fields using the Create local copy deal in ArcMap. I check out a local copy, update a field, check back in and no error or anything but the data does not get changed. AND it will not let me publish over the HFS. I get this weird error about a raster and about it being chached. There is no raster in the publishing map at all. Just a few very simple Feature classes form a small local FGB. This HFS has been working fine for months. There are no open replicas. Seems to have started after the last AGO update. Any ideas? Thanks

Why not just append the data directly to the new AGO Hosted Feature Service? You can use append in arcmap or the ArcREST toolbox has a tool for this.

My guess is you are not logged in. Have you tested it with Pro open in the background and logged in?

I have been wanting this too. Something like give a URL to a FS and use that to populate the drop down. But the big issue is the form is offline so how would it get to a FS to refresh the drop down? You would at least have to have the user refresh the form while online. I did see someone at UC that linked a drop down back to their SDE DB. Issue was then they had to be online to create a form. Not an option for us.
