Create Survey123 reports with Microsoft Power Automate   Do you want to create beautiful PDF reports of your survey results? Create your own Survey123 report templates including maps, tables, photos, signatures and more. This release, adds a new Create Report action to the Survey123 Microsoft Power Automate module. Automate the generation of reports on a schedule or when a survey is submitted! The screenshot below shows a Microsoft Power Automate flow. When an inspection is sent, it creates a PDF report and adds it as an attachment to an email. Trigger the Create Report action when a survey is submitted, as in the example above, or schedule it to run daily, weekly, etc.   To learn more about Survey123 reports, check this help topic. To get started with the Survey123 and Microsoft Power Automate, check this article. New tools in Survey123 Connect   Survey123 3.17 includes a few new tools to help you with your authoring tasks.  Watch this short video for details:   If you have ArcGIS Pro installed, you will see the Tools menu right away. Don’t see the Tools menu? Then follow the step-by-step instructions in this help topic . Upgrade survey template: Use this tool to upgrade an old XLSForm to the latest Survey123 Connect XLSForm template. Analyze survey: Run this tool against your XLSForm and it will provide tips and recommendations to improve your design. Convert palette: Use this tool to transform an XLSPalette file into a .palette file. See the Draw and annotate palettes help topic for details. Enhancements to the Survey123 web designer   Use the Survey123 web designer to visually create forms right from your web browser. In this update, calculations on map questions have been enhanced so you can collect the horizontal accuracy and altitude of point locations.   Use these new options to record additional metadata about locations collected in your survey. Tip: Calculate these values and hide the question from your survey. This way, you collect important metadata while keeping the form simple for your users. Additional new features   Accessibility improvements: Microsoft Word includes a series of pre-formatted paragraph text styles. Alternative screen readers use these styles to understand the layout of a document and ease navigation. Starting with this release, the Survey123 report service leverages these pre-formatted styles to help alternative readers more easily navigate your output documents.   Report syntax improvements: Specify the web map and scale independently for map questions. More info in this help topic. XLSForm enhancements: Use the keyword position in the default column of a geopoint question and the user’s location will be calculated when the question becomes relevant. Check details in this help topic. Apply input masks to text question types to validate user input. In this release, input masks behave similarly to a constraint expression in both the mobile and web apps: If the input mask is not met, the survey cannot be submitted. The web app now also supports the range question type. It is a great fit when you want to collect integer or decimal values using a sliding scale.   Want to learn what's new in this and previous releases? Check the What's new in Survey123 help topic.
