@SWT_TL- Is this an external choice list (csv)? I have had issues with external choice lists not being shared to the same group as the form (i.e. user can access the form, but not the choice list). You can update sharing for the external choice similarly to other items in your portal.

I agree that this option would be great. I don't always need to include the symbology when I create a view layer, but I put a significant amount of time into the visualizations and pop-ups for my layers that are widely used. It would be really nice to have an option to take that customization with me when I create a view layer for a specific purpose. This would save time and keep branding and symbology consistent across applications. Also, this should be an option, not the default. I would think it would be annoying for many uses if the view layer always inherited the customization from the parent layer. Many times (most of the time), I am pulling out a single data type, so points on the map are just fine and bringing over more complex symbology is not necessary or informative.

The Esri team members are a truly impressive part of the community. I am always amazed that the actual product engineers, developers, and experts are answering questions from users. It really speaks to how much Esri actually listens and responds to the users.

If you are looking specifically for watershed/drainage data, the USGS has watershed polygons and flowlines for the United States. Here's an article I found on how to access this layer: https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/where-can-i-get-watershed-maps - likely also in Living Atlas.

Possibly. I have some forms that rename photos, but haven't tried it with files. Here's what I have in the bind::esri:parameters column in Survey123 Connect for one of my surveys (bolded for emphasis): fileName=concat("Prefix", ${Field}) If you just want the file named based on a field, you could use fileName=${Field} Also, I like to lock things down for consistency, so have used the parameter fileNameVisible=false in the body::esri:style column so that the name can't be accidentally (or purposely) changed by the user. Hope that helps 😁

Even though I'm within the cofines of what my IT sets up at work, this is good info to know. At least worth a suggestion. 🙂

Honestly, I was/am workign within the confines of what my work IT department offers, so my choices are made for me. The Virtual Machine was fine for basic mapping and a little ArcGIS Pro work, but for analysis or more complicated symbology (i.e. the real reason for using Pro), it kept crashing and hanging. It came around to a lack of a dedicated graphics card, so they moved me off the Virtual Machine and to a tower set up with Citrix Workspace.

This is great! I also find that the number pad sometimes covers the entire screen on smaller screens (iphones), then we have numbers entered wrong as the user tries to scroll down to the next question.

I have had good results with Citrix Workspace. Virtual Machine did not work out well, but a physical computer remoted into through Citrix Workspace did the trick.

Thank you @HeatherBell, @KKelechenyi and @Levon_H for verifying that it's not just me. When I go to update that layer next, I'll have to get some Tech support - unless someone else has an idea... If I find anything, I'll update this post.

Thank you @BriannaEttley for the feedback. Totally understand the different roles the Esri boards play vs job boards. Also, thank you for the link.

I want to put a vote of support for this. I think a lot of us are looking for or would be willing to provide gig work for our GIS skills The issue is around both sides being protected from issues. Some mechanism to make sure the poster of the gig is legit and will pay - as well as a way to guarantee the qualifications and completeness of the job before payment. There are several sources out there for gig work, but from my experience they tend to be a lot of noise and really hard to get jobs from and find the kind of skills you need. Something more focused on ESRI products and with a more “filtered” user base of ESRI community members would be great.

I will work on getting the xlsx document anonymized. There are a few pull data and choice lists that will need to be de anonymous before sharing. Been troubleshooting all day and have landed on the where clause being the issue but can't figure out why. If I can get that xlsx doc anonymized, I'll upload it this week. Thank you @abureaux for your help and ideas.

Thank you for the troubleshooting ideas. The report behaves the same with and without the summary section. I used only one part of the where clause (Results1 = 'pos') - same behavior. Guess I'll still poke at it. 🙂

Hello, I have been working at this for a while and cannot seem to figure out what's going on. I worked with ESRI Tech Support on pat of this, but am still having issues. hoping someone in the Community can help me before reopening the ticket. I have a Survey123 Report Template. In the template, I have a summary section at the top (that's what Tech Support helped with) and a section below for individual entries. What I want to do is filter on the Survey123 website for a particular criterion (Sampling ID). In the body of the report, I only want details for a subset of the filtered entries (the individual items that were positive). I'm working with non-GIS users, so trying to make the process as streamlined as possible. Problem: When I run the report using the attached template, it does everything correctly (only the selected results are tabulated at the top and only the subset are in the "body".) Problem is that the "body" entries are repeated several times (a report for two entries is 120 pages long). Solutions tried (all with the same result of a 120-page report): - The number of pages doesn't seem to be related to any other numbers (total entries, filtered entries, etc.) - made all "smart quotes" into straight quotes - removed a nested filter in the analysis table - searched Google and the Community for answers - pulled out hair Thank you in advance for any help on this.
