@PavlovaVitale In a case like this, it should go in the Calculate column

Tl;DR: The main issue is that the category selector (select multiple) gets stuck on "loading" when I try to configure it to have flash, pan, or zoom actions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Background/Detail: I am working with a dataset that currently has ~100,000 records. Each record has a value in the "Source" attribute with the state name or the federal data source, and so I want to set up a category selector in my dashboard that allows the users to either select all state data through a "Select All" (which filters out the federal data from the map) or the user can select various states individually and see those features on the map. I want my map to pan/zoom to the features when the user makes a selection. The category filter keeps getting stuck on "loading" and won't accept user interaction. This is what I want it to look like: The category selector is configured to display categories from grouped values, based on this filter to remove the federal datasets: The category selector works IF I only have the Filter action. If I try to add Flash, Pan, or Zoom in addition, it gets stuck on the "loading" state. Any ideas on why this is happening and possible workarounds? Thanks!!

Are you using external choice lists? (either through a hosted layer or through a CSV in the media folder?) https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-blog/survey123-tricks-of-the-trade-external-choice/ba-p/1055534

I was running into this issue today too. It almost seems like a useless feature if it won't sample the entire dataset? Are there any updates for workarounds that anyone knows of?

Thanks so much for the response! As for "why didn't I go to the tool reference".....it just didn't occur to me, quite frankly. Since it wasn't working, it seemed like a bug that I needed to troubleshoot rather than something that would be described in the documentation for the tool. My mistake! In my particular scenario, I was given line features by a state organization that outlined treatment areas. I needed these to be in a polygon format to merge into a larger polygon dataset. It seemed like they probably had created the line features using Collector/Field Maps as they walked the perimeter of the treatment area. Again, thanks for the response and explanation. 🙂

This is a small thing, but hopefully would be very simple to implement. I was working with the Feature To Polygon tool today and noticed the attributes weren't transferring even though I had the box checked. After some research I did find this Esri Support page which addresses the issue. https://support.esri.com/en-us/knowledge-base/problem-creating-polygons-from-a-polyline-feature-layer-000030478 However, it would be helpful if the tooltip for the checkbox would display the message from the "Cause" section of this page: "The Preserve attributes parameter is no longer supported and does not work when using the Feature to Polygon tool. It remains for backward compatibility of scripts and models." While I wish I understood *why* this feature was removed, it would at least be nice to be notified that it won't work when running the tool, rather than having to research and find the support article.

Very excited to see this has been added to the product plan. ArcGIS Tasks are a really great concept for documenting repetitive workflows but they're only helpful when they can be incorporated with tools and workflows that are used frequently. Definition queries being one of them - pretty ubiquitous in almost every workflow! This will be very useful! Any update on the timeline for this functionality being added? @AmirBar-Maor

Hmmm, are you able to get any useful info by examining the developer console in the browser? Another suggestion would be trying a different browser and/or clearing your browser cache. That's a classic go-to for troubleshooting strange behavior in the browser...

In Connect, there's an option to update the form and will it convert the XLS form to the latest version. You can also just add the column manually and as long as the column name is spelled correctly, the application will recognize it and honor the settings.

Wow, thanks for the tip! Didn't know that one, I would always just copy into an IDE

Hmmm, maybe you could do something with the substr function? Unfortunately, as far as I know there still isn't a built-in split function that you could use to easily get each word using the space as a delimiter. But the substr function gets you part of the way, at least!

You can filter records before exporting by applying a filter within the Survey123 website. However, it sounds like you're not looking to filter out certain records, but certain attributes (fields), is that correct? If so, then I believe you'll have to export the fgdb as usual and then delete fields before you share the data.

Are you able to share the error log from field maps to help troubleshoot? Some things off the top of my head that are good to check: the map must have at least one editable layer, the layers must have sync enabled (even if they aren't editable), and you can't have duplicate layers in the web map. Other than that, hard to help more without the error logs...

Hi Kenny, You can definitely go the route of joining tables (either in ArcGIS Pro, or by creating a pivot table in excel), but another way to approach it would be to add a hidden question to the repeat (i.e. ${site_num_ref}) that has a calculation set to make the value equal to what was entered for the site number. All you should need to do is put the field name of the site number in the calculation cell for the ${site_num_ref} question.

Oh, interesting! @DougBrowning What was it built with before? (and yes, definitely incorrect rumor!)
