+1 for needing this capability. It was so powerful within Story Maps Classic.

I have exactly the same requirement as per the synchronise option in Story Maps Classic. Would love to know if someone has worked out how to do it or if it's coming to any other instant apps - it is possible in Dashboards and presumably Experience Builder.

The link referenced above confirms that downloading is not currently supported on data generated from data expressions. I guess this is because there could be some quite complex logic pulling data from multiple sources and it would be harder to check all those have export enabled. Would be a very useful addition to support this.

To be honest I was slightly surprised when I read the launch blog and it said that Creator level was needed. I had (wrongly) assumed that it was going to be available to the Collaborator (formerly Editor) level but the blurb for that user type now specifically refers to "simple editing" to distinguish it from the new Web Editor. Might be interesting to compare what is available in the Web Editor with the functionality available in SWEET, which is an ESRI UK product. As ever there are so many different ways of doing things within the ESRI technology stack!

I guess you could use a dashboard data expression to extract the week part of the date but would be great if it was there as part of the built-in options.

This is less of a question but more of a reference in case anybody else experiences the same issue during their upgrade. We just completed an upgrade from 10.9.1 to 11.3 for our internal ArcGIS site which runs on seven separate Windows servers (1x portal, 3x server and 3x data stores). We ran into a fairly fundamental issue when upgrading the portal element. The installer ran for about 40 minutes and then reported that it had successfully completed. However when trying to proceed with the next step we were unable to reach the portal website and it then became apparent that there was no Portal for ArcGIS windows service on the machine. Repairing the installation (after another wait) didn't fix the issue so we did a complete uninstall and reinstall, which did fix it and enabled us to proceed with the upgrade. The only resource we could find which referenced a missing Portal for ArcGIS service was this one in relation to the install folder name exceeding 34 characters (which it didn't in our case). We did attempt to run with the transforms file but couldn't get that to work, so just went with the uninstall and reinstall option.

Agreed!

Yes! The offline process used to work ok for us though we didn't use a great deal, then all of a sudden some time around June users who had previously downloaded a map couldn't sync their edits to the Portal. During my initial attempts to investigate we then seemed to lose the ability to even download offline areas - pretty much the exact same symptoms you describe (on both iOS and Android). I haven't really had the time to investigate further and log a support ticket because as I say it's not heavily used and I was hoping that a planned upgrade from 10.9.1 to 11.1 might fix it - but that might be wishful thinking if you have the same issue at that version.

From memory I think Field Maps forms are only supported in applications based on JS API v4 - in other words the new Map Viewer, Experience Builder, Instant Apps. I'm fairly sure you won't be able to see them in WAB apps as they're all based on JS API v3.

Thanks @ChristopherCounsell and apologies. I was looking at the thread title and first line of the original post which states "unknown error" and didn't really pay attention to the screenshot which as you say has a different error message! I will do a bit more digging in server logs etc (if I can get one of the users to come into the office) and will post in a separate thread as suggested. Thanks Gareth

I've got three different users working on three different surveys who have reported the same error in the last couple of weeks. They're using Android phones with Survey 123 being installed via Microsoft Intune (work Play store) against an ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1 portal. There doesn't appear to be any obvious logic such as large photos or incorrect data types which are causing some records to upload successfully and some not. In most cases these forms and users have worked absolutely fine for a couple of years which makes me wonder whether there is a bug that has slipped in with a recent app update maybe? They basically get the same unknown error message as the original poster. I've suggested for now that they edit the survey and then save it in drafts as that will at least allow them to submit other surveys without attempting to send the dodgy ones again. Will raise with UK technical support as this looks like it's becoming a more widespread issue for us (though I imagine it will be one that is tricky to try and replicate).

Thanks for the useful replies and apologies for the delay in responding. I did try upgrading the forms to the latest versions of Survey123 Connect but it made no difference. I've now been able to work out the cause of the problem which was down to the presence of a hidden field in a repeat on my form. It had a calculated value of position(..) to be used in reporting to ensure that the repeats appear in the same order as they were entered (couldn't use the last edited date as they all get the same time at the point of upload). Changing it to a visible integer field seems to have fixed the linking now. Not sure if this is a bug but I can't see anything in the known issues section of the documentation.

I have a layer in a Field Maps map which has the pop-up configured to display two links to Survey123. The links are identical except for the itemid of the survey form that I want to open up. They both pass across three fields for pre-population which are set up the same way on both forms. As far as I can tell I am following the guidance in this page correctly Integrate with other apps—ArcGIS Survey123 | Documentation Clicking on the link for survey 1 results in Survey123 opening but just hanging on the Loading Survey screen. The same behaviour happens whether I have S123 open beforehand or not. I've also tried deleting the survey and downloading again in case it was device specific (which is confirmed by other users having the same issue). I'm using the URLencode function in Arcade to ensure there are no dodgy characters. arcgis-survey123://?itemID=5ec2c0f7d2834fc780255663258050fa&field:site_location=Creechbarrow%20Road&field:developer_name=Taunton%20Deane%20Borough%20Council&field:site_reference=156592 If I remove the pre-populated fields info then the survey opens fine. The fields are all strings and not used in any calculations. Clicking on the link for survey 2 works fine arcgis-survey123://?itemID=a9047ca25ef641c89b54320d70f86540&field:site_location=Creechbarrow%20Road&field:developer_name=Taunton%20Deane%20Borough%20Council&field:site_reference=156592 The behaviour sounds quite similar to some of the cases that people have posted about here Solved: Field App to Survey123 Url Scheme stopped working ... - Esri Community So it does make me think that there is something specific about the functionality of the first survey that is causing the problem? Both surveys were built with Connect v3.15.165 so I guess I should try updating to 3.17 as the next step.

Actually looks like the same behaviour with the first configured locator of your portal does work after all in Field Maps. I think it was my phone misbehaving when I first tested it but I had another go and it is now working. So one workaround option that we're considering is to have a "super" composite locator which pulls together all other locators and is set as the first one in the portal.

‎03-07-2023

Hi Jake, Just trying to see if I could get an ArcGIS Enterprise locator service to be available for search in Field Maps and it seems to match up with your experience. The documentation suggests it's only about the layers configured in web map itself and I can't find any reference to configuring locators for Field maps. Quick reference—ArcGIS Field Maps | Documentation I seem to remember in the Explorer app that the first configured locator in your Portal WAS available within the app if you were signed in, although I can't seem to get that to work for me right now (Explorer no longer available in app stores anyway). Using Locator in Explorer for ArcGIS - Esri Community Would be good to hear from the Fields Maps team if there is any support planned for using locator services in an online map? Regards Gareth
