Hi Christopher.  From what you describe, field  users are going to benefit a lot from having  a map on which they can see all nests and their  status as well as important notes. I think that Collector  will play a role  as  Deon highlighted for this reason. In collector you can turn layers on and  off and look at all nests in a map using different colors depending on status etc. This will give people a good understanding  of what there  is around them.  The map in Survey123 will not cut it for the reasons you describe.  So yes, I think Collector is a go. The next aspect is to determine if you can use Collector alone, or if you will  benefit from having Survey123. It really depends on how comfortable people  are with the actual  form.  Collector will help you navigate to the right nest  and be aware of important  things around it, but what about completing  the visit form? Collector has  some basic form capabilities which may be plenty for  your use case.   If people in the field feel more comfortable  with a Survey123 form, then you can simply combine both applications. The trick here will be to ensure that the visit information is  stored in the visits related  table. This is  perfectly doable.  That is: you can handle  the nests layer  in Collector, and the Visits layer in Survey123. Combining Survey123 and Collector you can configure things so each app helps you on what is best.  But do not over-complicate things: if the Collector form does reasonably, go with Collector. As for  Workforce, it feels like  overkill at first sight. ... View more

Hi. Please share your XLS file so we can have a look. Most likely it is a minor syntax problem. ... View more

Hi Christopher,  Yes. It is possible for multiple surveys to edit the same feature. This is possible by enabling the Inbox, which allows you to query and download existing features into your Survey123 app for view or edits.  The Inbox is described in detailed here: Prepare for editing existing survey data—Survey123 for ArcGIS | ArcGIS   You can also use related records and a single survey as Deon describes above from within Survey123. I have created a simple example to illustrate how this can be done.   The first two questions will help you identify the nest with an ID and its  location. Then a repeat block follows. All questions within the repeat block will help you provide details for each of the visits. Information about each visit gets persisted  in the geodatabase as a related record to the Nest.   Combining the repeat as shown above with the Inbox, you can enable a group of people to download the nest information.even if created by others, and edit it as appropriate. For example, one person may add a new nest, with its ID and location and also complete the 1st visit information. Then another different person can use the Inbox to fetch that nest into her device and add information about a second visit, or simply look at the history of visits.   One nice feature of the Inbox is that you can configure it with filters, so only certain people can see certain nests. Or to define if information from previous visits (related records) should be hidden, read-only or read and write.  I am attaching the XLS file for  your  convenience. You can import the XLSFile into Connect and publish it.  Before you publish, remember to  activate the Inbox from Connect.  In the XLS file you will note that I added a expression into the bind::esri:parameters column. query=1=1 means that when you download data for the nest, all visits recorded  for that nest will be downloaded into the device  too.  allowUpdates=true  means that  you can edit data in previous visits. You may want to turn updates to false...  The pattern I describe above has been used for monitoring bird nests following the form described  in page 15 of this document https://nestwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/NestWatch_manual_140715.pdf    The  Breeding section in that form is the repeat.  The summary section can be modeled  using aggregation formulas. In the example I attach, for example, I use the count() function in the calculation column of row 12 to automatically associate the total number of visits with the nest.   I am assuming that turtles and birds are alike.  Ismael ...

Thanks Paul for sharing your FGDB and XLS file. The reason why your expressions did not work is because you had a space in between if and the opening parenthesis. if(selected{$question},'choice'),true,false) works if (selected{$question},'choice'),true,false) will not do anything I added a brief warning to the blog above so others do not run into this issue. Thanks! ... View more

Hi Kieran. This is not expected. We have not intentionally changed the behavior of the map.  A bluemarker at the center of the map should still display.  Can you share the URL of your survey so we can have a look? Also, do you observe this in a particular web browser, or across all browsers? ... View more

Please send  me your XLSFile so I can have a closer look to what you are trying to achieve.  You can either post here or send  directly to ichivite at esri.com ... View more

The following expression will return 12 if totalbrocasha is greater than 3000 and otherwise, it will return 0. if (${totalbrocasha}>3000,12,0) You can use this expression in the calculation column of the coposliberar question.

That is correct. If a survey is shared publicly, anyone can submit data to it (from a web browser, or from the Survey123 field app).

Hi. Did you check the permissions set on your feature layer?  There is a chance that you have permissions set so users can only see the features they submitted. When this is set, only the owner of the survey can see all features. To access permissions: Go into your Content tab in arcgis.com. Then navigate to the field worker hosted feature layer view of your survey (if  missing, simply go into the surveys feature layer), and then look for the dialog below under the Settings tab. Change permissions accordingly. ... View more

Hi Alfonso. This is a known limitation of Survey123 Connect.  When using Create Survey->From Feature service, Connect always creates an XLSFile looking at the first layer of your feature service.  If you would like to create a survey that loads data in other layers, you will need to create the XLS file manually. submission url: the URL of your feature layer item form id: the name of the layer in your feature service you want to hit survey worksheet: ensure that the questions in your survey worksheet reference field names that exist in the feature layer you are hitting ...

Hi Joe. First time I see this.  I wonder if this  relates to your permissions to share in those groups. My guess is that ArcGIS.com is listing only the groups on which you can share content, whereas the Survey123 website  is  listing all groups to which you belong (regardless of permissions to  share).  We are investigating this. ...
