Field Maps Designer does a bit of a better job blocking things that will not work in Field Maps vs the web form builder. It is what you should use to build forms. Give that a try. Its not perfect still but better.

We started seeing this also and unchecking this seems to work. Never had to do it before could be some new portal default? Its on the settings page of the service.

Opps I am wrong there is not one. Sorry it was a bit ago.

I think there is a setting for refresh on just the list widget also.

@hsummers_scf It was not my trick so I am not positive. But its something like create a join() field of choice join(",",${AddPlants}) then use that in the choice filter column like this regex(${SpeciesListJoin}, name) This assumes there is a master list that you are filtering. So it may not work for you since it sounds like yours is completely on the fly. I cannot think of a way to do it really.

Yes if a question is not relevant then it gets a "" value and that is by design. This makes sense since it is not really valid data anymore. If you want to just hide the question instead you can use the body::esri:visible column instead. Then it will only hide it but keep the data. Depending on use case that could be good or bad for your data. Hope that helps

That usually means you are trying to submit a string that is too long for your service. 123 defaults to 256 chars but if you used a custom service it may be shorter than that on a text field.

Finding some random polygons fail to be sent to the geoprocessing tool from the analysis widget. When looking at the data that gets sent into the tool via Get Parameter and passed into a GDB it creates a FC but there are no records in it. So I get a blank map when coming from Analysis widget. But that exact same polygon from the same source works just fine when coming from ArcPro. If I export that polygon to a GDB then upload that GDB to ExB and run it then it also works just fine. Sorry images are not attaching here today for some reason. It is a multipart polygon but we have other multipart from the exact same layer that work just fine. Any ideas what can be wrong here? We see again and again that some polygons just refuse to work in the Analysis widget. I can demo any of these needed. Thanks

@JayantaPoddar I have this issue but with javascript math. We want to warn if 2 values not within 10%. I have 150 and 135 which should be right at 10%. Of course javascript gives 0.1111111111111111 for this. Your trick would give .106111111, then round is .11 which still fails. Any other ideas here. I need truncate but do not have it. Even times 100 then int would not work. Maybe the -.005 then x 100 then int? Seems risky but works in this example int(((if(${BankfullPercentDiff} < 0, ${BankfullPercentDiff} * -1, ${BankfullPercentDiff})) -0.005) * 100) Any other ideas? thanks

Go into the AGOL item page for the service, then data, then fields, then domains and see if they got double listed there. It can happen. Just remove the dups. Also make sure there are no extra spaces at the end which look like dups but are not.

This is often using reserved words in field names. Post up the form or look for the green boxes indicating an issue.

I think this would be a great use case for my emojis trick see https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-documents/how-to-simulate-instant-data-checking-using-emojis/ta-p/916725

@Wei_Ying On selections? This post was on the search widget not working on the initial popup result as seen in the gif. I am not sure what you mean by selections? We just tested and its still not working from Search widget with the same # and input issue.

We submitted one for the same issue with embed links on case 04081687 which became ENH-00018286 but it was immediately closed on us as Will Not Be Addressed. But it was the same issue. ExB gets super confused when we have a AGOL based ExB with layers from a portal in it. We have at least 3 different cases of this. Since it was closed so fast we have not done another ticket for the above. I went out of town was part of it. Take a look at the above and let me know if that works or it has to be another one. I think in general testing cases where multiple accounts are involved would show you the issue. thanks a lot

Big upvote here as we use this a ton. Been working great for years now. It is really the only way to compare across our 15 123 forms for QA reports. Really need this. Thanks
