I did this for a Survey123 Form by adding a field to the Hosted Feature Service database called FormEmailed and have it default to No. I then run a script at night that uses a ArcMap layout connected to data driven pages with a definition query of FormEmailed = No (I use the Export to PDF from the ddp to get a pdf). I use python smtp to send the email with pdf attachment. Then I use ArcRest to set the FormEmailed = Yes. This way I can always go back into a record and change it to No and it will send it out again. Let me know if you want to see the code. Getting the JSON just right is the hardest part. Hope that helps.

Did you use a AOI? There are a number of bugs in it. See Mange Tiles shows much larger size than cache using custom scales Even if it says 0 look at the actual number of tiles published not a %. Mine says 0.01% but still works fine.

I have found that if your data and map projection are not the same you will have all kinds of issues. I have published to AGO in UTM but then you can not mix them with regular basemaps.

It is probably because you used a AOI. There is a know bug I have open on this. See this post and below Mange Tiles shows much larger size than cache using custom scales

If you have a simple map you can also use the Create Map Tile Package and do a lot of this in one step. There is no AOI option and it does not use Parallel Processing but it is easier for users. Looks like these will not be fixed in 10.4 either. Also note I have 4 open bugs on these tools all dealing with the AOI parameter. You will get all kinds of issues in the extent when using AOI. [BUG-000086429: The Manage Tile Cache tool does not honor the area of interest parameter set when creating the cache.] I have 2 out there now that say only 3.63% of the tiles published but it actually works just fine. Case #01691221 and #01642593 [BUG-000085241: Publishing tiles does not complete in ArcGIS Online. This may be due to incorrect extents, however this warning is never provided to the user when creating the tile package.] Unknown number - the extent is also wrong when using the Export Tile cache tool. They listed BUG-000085241 but this is already above and different. I had case #01642593 and #01623834 because the export tool also bombs in scheduled scripts but works fine not scheduled. BUG-000084160 The Manage Tile Cache tool will fail when run in python. I was trying to get around the bug above and found another one. Also on the issue of not being able to cache a Esri basemap. Our contractor also has an open issue that hurts him and us. It was supposed to be fixed in 10.3.1 but was not. Defect Escalation - BUG-000081937 / DE-000000372

Thanks but I have seen that already. Been searching a lot. As the post points out the kicker is.... "Again, none of these can be used to sign in (you need to already be signed in), but the functions will hopefully provide some bits you need." This is a script that runs on a schedule through windows event scheduler. I have asked about the registry entries I have found also but no one knows anything about them. Even if I could just extend the login time that would help.

Anyone know a way to test to see if a MXD is logged in? I have a mxd that has a Hosted Feature Service in it. I then have a python script running on a schedule. The only way I can have python be logged in is to leave ArcMap open all the time and logged in on the same machine. Then python sees it. Problem is ArcMap logs itself out appox every 12 hours. I have posted and no one seems to know how to change this. So instead is there a way I can test for a login then exit the script if it is not? If the script runs interactively it will popup a login to AGO box. But if the script is scheduled it just sits and waits which locks up my log file until I kill python in task manager. Just trying anything now since there is strangely no way to login in a mxd in a script. I am using Data Driven pages off the HFS so it dies here mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(os.path.join(mapsDir, mapToUse)) ddp = mxd.dataDrivenPages Oh and no REST does not work. The MXD can not see REST tokens. thanks

We use a similar one called MobileMap by Mason Bruce. It allows us to take all of our layers offline using tpks and allows using a sd card. We have 30+GB covering 2 million+ acres (way beyond what collector can handle). Data collection uses local sqllite and syncs up with AGO when back online.

Just wanted to post this funny info. Survey123 is now allowing you to use any TPK or tile cache from a SD Card. So one group in Esri says no while another says sure! Imagine if we could ever get the different groups in Esri to talk to each other....... See the bold and underline below. I tested it and it works - just pointed it to the directory of TPKs I already have on my SD Card. My large imagery TPK is a bit slow but Survey123 said it should find unzipped ones also (which is what we do for speed in our other app) - it does not so I am asking them on that. -------------- Whats new in this release Survey123 now supports the use of offline basemaps. These basemaps must be of the Esri file type of tile package and web mercator projection. Tile packages can be created using ArcGIS Desktop or ArcGIS Pro. Note:Currently there are many manual steps required to use basemaps in your survey. It is expected that a more streamlined process will be added, but we wanted to make the functionality available as soon as possible. This topic will be updated as the user experience of including basemaps in your survey, evolves. Create a map tile package You can create a map tile package using ArcGIS Desktop or Pro. Once created you can copy it directly to your device for use in Survey123 or share it in ArcGIS for others to use. To create a map tile package: Launch ArcGIS Pro. < li>Open an existing map or create a new map. Ensure your map has a suitable name and description. To edit these, right click the map in the table of contents, and choose properties. In Toolbox, choose the Create Map Tile Package tool and enter the input map name and the output file name. Input map name and output file name are the minimum requirements for this tool. You can optionally enter other properties. Run the Create Map Tile Package tool. A new .tpk will be created in your chosen output location. To use this file in Survey123 you can upload it to ArcGIS to share with others, or manually copy it to your device. Copy your tile package directly to your device If you do not have internet connectivity or are unable to connect to ArcGIS, you can copy your tile package directly to your device, or use it from an external storage card. To copy your tile package directly to your device: Connect to your device If you are using an iOS device, you will need to use iTunes. Copy you .tpk to your ~\ArcGIS\My Surveys\Maps folder. For example, on Windows this would be C:\Users\UserName\ArcGIS\My Surveys\Maps. If you already had Survey123 open before copying, restart Survey123. To use your tile package from an external storage card: Copy your tile package to your storage card and place the card in your device. Launch Survey123 on your device and on the My Surveys menu, choose Settings . Nominate an additional Map Library Folder that represents your storage card. The default path of ~/ArcGIS/My Surveys/Maps will already be shown. You can add additional paths by - Typing the additional path directly into the edit box (use a semi colon to separate paths). - Use the folder browser to select an additional path. Any path selected will be appended to your Map Library Folder. When you next open a survey that has the map append property set to true, tile packages on your storage card will be appended to the list of available basemaps

Thanks a lot. Follow up question. Will minor text changes also cause a wipe of the HFS? For example to fix a typo or add some static text. Or adding a hint, etc. So is it ANY change to the form or just schema changes. Thanks again

Thanks I had 1.0.19 still. I swear one of the old ones did overwrite. Turns out you changed the name to Survery123Beta.exe and the directory. Also it installs to the user dir for some odd reason and I have to use a separate admin account to install...but finally got it. Are you going to change the name again? Why default to a user dir? I think my workflow to keep the name and records would be. 1. Download a copy of the HFS to a GDB using REST. (or simple export to GDB in AGO) 2. Publish new survey. 3. Use a Append Tool in ArcMap to get the GDB records moved to the new HFS OR use the REST toolbox append tool. Not sure if either of these would work with attachments. Sound like that would work? Thanks

It could be that it can change the scheme if there are no records in the service but can not if there are records?

Just had another form I am trying to go back and edit from a few months ago. It will show new fields I added in Connect and on the app but the Hosted Feature service will not show the new fields. It will also not send the form now with a Code 400 error. Why can I not add fields to my form? thanks

Well I deleted the .info and .itemInfo files on my computer in the My Survey Designs folder and the items in the debug folder and that seemed to do it. Would be nice to know if this is correct or why I can not add fields to a group after it is published.
