Survey is fairly new. I checked the version and version date in the XLS form, 3.17, February 21, 2023. This survey was part of Esri's lead line service inventory solution we deployed. We made some change to the survey (XLSForm in Connect), went to republish and it failed. Very frustrating! We copied and modified the survey and successfully published it eventually. I recall running the Update XLSForm template tool prior to the republish. Then running the Analyze survey tool revealed no critical errors. There were some warning and information messages, but they are minor and do not prevent the survey from working.

Hi Josh, Thanks for the great troubleshooting tip. Added the URL to the embed's Description. Selecting different records shows the unique globalids. Puzzling.

Hi Josh, Yes, we see the null comment in the error. The tail end of our URL has: I thought changing the letter case in the {globalid} to {globalId}, but this did not work. Puzzling.

Hello. We have had great success embedding Survey123 forms (built using Connect) in our Dashboards. This allows us to add new survey records and edit submitted ones directly in the embedded survey, and see the results in the dashboard web map and associated elements. Following this model, we built a dashboard to review and validate lead service line survey submissions as part of our service line inventory. We began noticing the error in the screenshot below. This error occurs when we attempt to edit an existing survey record in the dashboard as the first thing we do. If we then open the Survey123 web app, refresh the dashboard browser window, we can then submit the record successfully in the dashboard environment. Completing the survey form in a separate browser window successfully submits the survey record. Hosting is on ArcGIS Online, and we have re-checked the various editing permission settings. While we have a work around, we would like to resolve this issue and understand its cause. Many thanks in advance. Regards, Jay

Yes! This is very helpful, thank you. I had the group 2 option set up (or close to it), but it wasn't working.

I did catch a mixed text case issue, which was causing some problems, but I am still not quite sure how to set up the conditional statements.

I am working on a Survey123 Connect project supporting the exciting (?) topic of refuse cart delivery (trash, recycle and yard waste). Our current paper process is grossly inefficient. We have three cart types: trash, recycle and yard waste, and two sizes for each type: 45- and 95-gallon. One design is to list all possible carts, followed by selecting the carts needed for delivery at a city resident. While this design works, it is not elegant. I was trying to use Relevant option to expose cart sizes based on carts chosen. Instead of having six cart type (and size) choices, I would have the three cart types in the initial select_multiple question. If trash was selected, then a second question is exposed to capture the trash cart size. If recycle is selected, then a second question is exposed to capture the recycle cart size. Same for the yard waste carts. Something like the screen shots below. The cart types are presented and a selection is made, any one cart requested, any two, or all three depending on the resident's needs. then......based on cart type(s) chosen, the size field is then shown, and a size selection made. The size choices are the same for each cart type. I have searched the world wide web and GeoNet, but have not found (yet) an example of how to set up this workflow in the XLSForm, using Relevant statements, or other techniques. I could use some help with my limited Connect form building skills. Many thanks in advance.

I had the same error today. Cache clearing allowed the save to occur.

Hi Joe et al on this thread......I was trying to make this same idea happen, then found your posts. I have a Survey123 Connect survey (editable) embedded in an internal review Dashboard. The Survey is completed by residents and provides information on their water service line, as part of our lead service line inventory program. Once the survey is submitted, we review the information internally, and select 'Yes' if we conclude the service line is properly identified (validated) or 'No' if we conclude we need to investigate further (invalid). The field remains "empty" in the survey attribute table until we select yes or no. I would like the Category Selector to List All, Validated Surveys, Invalid Surveys, and those Waiting Validation. The last category is the one in question - how can I list only those survey records still waiting our review? I am guessing I may have to add a "null" choice to the yes/no choice list in the Connect XLSform, to get this to work. Any other ideas are welcome. I did upvote your idea. Regards, Jay One of my many iterations......clicking on 'Waiting Validation' returned 'No Data' in the element.

Instead of having to click on the Search tool to open it to this expanded view: , is there a setting somewhere that opens the Search tool to the expanded view, by default, when opening a web map? Assuming there is one, will a Dashboard honor the setting? It would be nice to have the Search tool open by default. I am trying to simplify some user instructions and reduce the number of mouse clicks. Thanks in advance.

Hello, I too was greeted with this message today, 5-5-2023, (This survey cannot be accessed in the web app. Please contact the survey owner to republish the survey with 'Create web form' enabled. Error: Missing .webform file.) after republishing a Survey123 Connect survey following some changes. The survey had been working as expected prior to today's changes. I reviewed several posts, checked my settings (e.g., Doug's 7-21-2022 post), and all seemed in order. I finally remembered to run the Analyze tool in the Publishing window of Connect. The action revealed a Critical error. In reviewing the error in the Excel file that is created when running the tool, I saw I had a 'null' value in the 'bind::type' column for a 'Note' type field. This null was in the wrong column, and not needed, so I deleted it. I republished the survey. I could then submit a record with no webform publishing error. I have found the new Analyze tool useful on more than one occasion, but I tend to forget it is available. I hope this helps! Regards, Jay

Chris, Thanks. I have redeployed other solutions and noticed the "_1 " at the end of each named item. I figured that was the current option. However, I hesitated given all the work I had put into populating the ServiceLine feature service. I did manage to get a working version of Survey123. I wonder if the Solutions applications will ever have a 'select and replace' on individual solution items which the users mess up? Thanks again. Sincerely, Jay

Update. I did a Save As, and created a new Survey. I used the Tools, tried 'Analyze survey,' errored. Decided I had nothing to lose, so I ran the Update XLSForm template. Worked. Analyze survey no longer errors and produces the XLS table of the analys results. I was successful at publishing the Survey following the modifications I made in the XLSForm, and Adding the fields during the publishing step. A solution perhaps, but I still don't understand all that happened above.

Hi. I am working with the Lead Service Line Inventory solution. I am having problems with the Survey123 component after making some modifications in Connect. I would like to download the original Survey123 item contained in the solution and simply start over. Is there a way to accomplish this? Can I deploy the same solution again and retrieve the Survey item, or will this redeploy overwrite everything in the original deployed solution? I don't know much about redeploying the same solution. I have populated the ServiceLine feature service and don't want to lose/overwrite the existing service layer and lose the data. Thanks, Jay

Hi, I am working with the Lead Service Line Inventory solution. I am updating the Survey123 form using Connect and the XLSForm. Before I made any changes to the XLSForm, I created a copy (Save As) and saved it with a different name (- Original). In the working version, I added my organization's logo in the Details screen (.png file, 300x300 pixels, see below). I then added the same logo.png as a type 'note,' 'city_logo' name field in the XLSForm. When saving the XLSForm, I received a no label error for the 'city_logo' field and for the 'generated_note_surveyDescription' name field, as neither had a label. I inserted a label for each, and the form updated but now contained text/labels which I don't want. To avoid an errant label, I found an HTML string, <font color=""></font>, (I think from an Esri blog), I can insert the two label cells, and the survey form updates as expected. And looks nice (see below). When I go to publish, I am prompted to add two fields, one is the city logo and the other is for a field I did nothing with (see below). If I click on 'Add the following fields when publishing,' then 'Publish survey,' the publishing step hangs, and I have to end it using Windows Task Manager (which doesn't always work) or clicking on the X in the upper right corner of Connect. I've tried publishing using labels other than the HTML, same hanging behavior. We have a couple of other modifications we want to make to the survey which I was lead to believe we could modify in Connect. Why am I prompted to Add the 'identify_water_service_line_mat' field which I did not touch? Why is the publishing step failing? Maybe it's just me, but I seem to keep breaking stuff in this solution. Any help would be appreciated, and thanks in advance, Jay PS I forgot to add when I run the Analyze Survey tool, I get a traceback error, substring not found. Details Pane Form Pane, with city logo as I would like it, no label strings on the logo or the 'Please complete....' statement. Publishing warning Add fields, publishing progress, then end with Task Manager.
