Hello, a couple of general questions.... 1) I have Connect 3.19.116 installed on my laptop (March 2024 installation time frame). When I look at the version tab of the XLSForm is shows 3.21, 12 November 2024. I was having trouble publishing a very simply survey yesterday, so I tried the Tools. Analyze Survey, which I have used in the past (and is quite useful), returned a screen of errors I did not understand, though the XLSForm was closed. I decided to run the Update XLSForm Template to see if this helped. At some point in the 'run around,' I got the survey to publish. I then noticed the version of the XLSForm was 3.21. If I create a new survey, it too has a template version of 3.21. Is it safe to assume, that future surveys will use 3.21, thought the version of Connect remains 3.19? And if I open an older Survey, I can update to the new XLSForm if I choose too, while remaining with Connect 3.19? And there is no longer a 3.19 template? 2) What happens to my local C:\Users\....\ArcGIS folder of My Survey Designs and the other folders if I uninstall Survey 123 Connect? Will these folders be deleted, and my survey work erased? Or do the folders remain and an installation of a newer version of Connect will recognize their presence and not overwrite them? 3) Is there a resource(s) that explains what goes when Connect versions are updated on one's computer? Thanks in advance, Jay

Hello! I am an Experience Builder newbie. I have managed to create an "information lookup" experience to serve basic address, parcel, zoning, and FEMA information. I have a simple pop-up on each operational layer. I have Views(?) in the left side bar list for the four layers (and legend, basemaps, etc.), which can be scrolled, and shows the same information as in the pop-ups. I noticed that I have to scroll through the pop-up to update the information in the side bar views, when I click on a different map location. I fear this will cause confusion by the user. What I am doing wrong in the settings that would cause this issue, and how do I resolve it? Many thanks.

Jamie, Sorry to hear of your struggles. It's been a while, but I recall "going off script," and using the copy of the original solution's 123 form and modifying it as we needed. While the Survey123 form worked well and was used by the residents in Newark (Delaware), we were disappointed in the number of surveys returned/submitted. The only part of the Esri LSL Inventory solution we use, is the original solution feature service, ServiceLine. I either modified the solution's web map (s) or created new ones. We created our own Dashboards too. Eventually, we created a feature class in our enterprise sde GDB, which we consider the "source of truth" for all things water service line related. Any water material line data present in our other water distribution sde feature classes (e.g., curb stops), were added to this feature class, and updating those fields elsewhere has been suspended. Thus, we have, for now, stopped using the Survery123 form to collect service line material. Apologies for the rambling. We are now moving into next steps to add to the inventory. Regards, Jay

Laura, Many thanks! I usually forget about that one important detail. Regards, Jay

Hello! I have updated content and republished several feature service layers (Sharing......Overwrite Web Layer) from ArcGIS Pro. These are service layers that have been in use in various web maps for several years now. When opening the web map in the ArcGIS Online (new) map viewer, the existing layers show an error in the TofC and do not load. I have to re-add each (now republished) layer, rename the layer, and reconfigure the layer pop-up - a real chore. I read somewhere that this is the expected behavior in the web map when updating a service? I am using a configurable application, Information Lookup. When I open the app, two of five layers I have updated, show the following message: Layer is not in the webmap:service_name_####, where the service_name_ is the name of my service followed by some four digit number. However, the service layers are in the webmap. Interestingly, the two layers show in the application map but are not honoring the symbology. Instead, some default(?) symbology is used. I went back to the web map, and changed the symbology slightly on the two layers, and saved the changes/map. While the symbology has improved, I still get the errors on those two layers when I open the application. I cannot figure out why this is happening in general and happening with these two layers. Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks, Jay

I think I have this figured out. In this example, I have a starting inventory of 188 95 gallon recycle carts. I pulled seven carts from inventory and the result is 181 remaining. The Indicator element is filtering the cart type, cart size and cart transaction where carts are pulled from inventory and delivered to residents. var difference = 188 - $datapoint["count"] return { middleText: difference }

Howdy! I am trying to create a series of inventory counters in ArcGIS Dashboards on ArcGIS for Enterprise 10.9.1. The inventory is of refuse carts of three types recycle, trash and yard waste, each having up to three sizes (35, 45, and 95 gallons). I was considering starting with a supply of carts, a number, then subtract from it each time a cart of that type and size is pulled from inventory and the delivery is completed. For example, I have 100 95 gallon recycle carts (R95). I pull three from inventory and deliver them. I would like a counter that shows 97 R95 carts remain. Each time I pull a R95 cart(s) from inventory, the count decreases. We use Survey123 Connect to record and manage the various cart transactions. I have a Delivery Complete field (yes, no) in the Survey form. My thought process was to use Arcade, sum the number records for Delivery Complete (=Yes), filtered by cart type and size, and subtract that count from the starting inventory value for that cart type and size. As the Delivery Complete value increases, the remaining cart count decreases. Does this approach make sense? If yes, I am struggling with coding the idea in Arcade. Or is there another way to achieve a dynamic inventory count?

Ah make sense Daniel, many thanks.

I was comparing the 'Trees' feature service with 'Trees_public' service after I deployed the solution. If I am not mistaken, the _public service does not have a field called "adoptedby." Just curious as to why.

Perfect Daniel, thanks!

Hello, we are considering deploying the Tree Management Solution to manage our tree inventory in 2025. The inventory will likely be generated by an external consultant. I would like to provide the attribute table for the primary feature class/service used in the solution to the consultant. Is there a way to download the attribute table schema without having to download the solution? How will the solution evolve with Workforce being rolled into Field Maps? And is there an ETA on when Workforce will be replaced in the solution? With the Enterprise version, will the public need credentials to access the public-facing solution components? Many thanks, Jay

Hi Barry, Thanks for the reply. The "map frame" phrase was a poor choice to use. I failed to mention that definition queries were involved as well, with multiple maps each with different queries filtering the same data. I was looking for a lazy way to keep things straight and organized. Regards, Jay

Hello! In some Pro projects, I have multiple map frames open, which may contain the same feature classes in each, as well as other feature classes. If I open a few attribute tables for Map frame 1, and then switch to Map frame 2, the attribute tables already open are still correlated with Map frame 1. Is there a setting or similar, that keeps the tables aligned with the map frame, when one switches between frames? So, if Map frame 1 is open, and I have attribute tables for Map frame 1 open, and I switch to Map frame 2, the tables I had open for 2 will show. I fear I am not making sense. Maybe a "discrete container" idea, multiple map frame containers with associated layers, and attribute tables in each. I made some unexpected editing snafus....thanks in advance. Jay

Bingo! I think I have this resolved. I modified the script to remove the 'L0ServiceLine' in the field name, and this restored the dots in my wLSL feature class. I don't know how this happened in the first place, but I know what to do going forward. Thank you again for your help.

Hi Alex, I believe the dot labeling issue has to do with the join I have in place. It appears the Arcade labeling code from the original solution gets updated or overwritten based on the newer field names. In testing in a separate Pro project, if I replace the Arcade code with the code from the original solution the dot labeling returns. Original Solution Arcade code if($feature.utilverified != "Yes" && $feature.custverified != "Yes") {return " ●●"} else if($feature.utilverified != "Yes" && $feature.custverified == "Yes") {return "●"} else if($feature.custverified != "Yes" && $feature.utilverified == "Yes") {return " ●"} My feature class Arcade code. I have no clue why the Survey123 L0ServiceLine field names are shown or where this comes from? wLSLServiceLines is my feature class on sde, created from the ServiceLine layer, and represents our source of truth. Again, the dot labeling and symbology were working fine for the past several months with this feature class. I think I can simply replace the current code with the solution's original code and all will be well. I would like confirmation though. And thank you for your help! if($feature['.....wLSLServiceLines.L0ServiceLine.utilverified'] != "Yes" && $feature['.....wLSLServiceLines.L0ServiceLine.custverified'] != "Yes") {return " ●●"} else if($feature['.....wLSLServiceLines.L0ServiceLine.utilverified'] != "Yes" && $feature['.....wLSLServiceLines.L0ServiceLine.custverified'] == "Yes") {return "●"} else if($feature['.....GIS.wLSLServiceLines.L0ServiceLine.custverified'] != "Yes" && $feature['.....wLSLServiceLines.L0ServiceLine.utilverified'] == "Yes") {return " ●"}
