Hi Helene, please see the comments below. "I am imagining a function where it auto incremented for each started track." This is possible and out of the box when you select a feature layer for capturing streaming points. Each point has a field called ObjectID and it's auto-incremented.  "...the points building one track would share one ID." This can be done by manually adding a new data field, i.e. the shared ID field, to the feature layer. In the QuickCapture project, you can preconfigure the button to submit streaming points to this field with a fixed value, so that points captured by this button always submit the same value to this specified field.    Thanks, Mandy   ...

Hi Mark, When you said 'Sync to ArcGIS Oniline', do you mean to submit the captured records (features) to the feature service on ArcGIS Online (correct me if I am wrong here)? If so, then the 'CreationDate' data field of the layer represents the date/time when a record is added to the feature service as a geometry. This is probably is what you saw as the 'sync date'. In QuickCapture, there is a device variable called captureTime that records the actual time when the record is captured on your device, and it is automatically mapped to the Date field called 'Fix Time' of the point layer. Can you check if your point layer has this field and if the captured date/time value is what you are expecting? However, if Fix Time is not there, we will need to find out if there's another way. For lines and polylines, we don't have such automated mapping mechanism yet, you will have to manually add two Date fields and match them with QuickCapture device variables 'startTime' and 'endTime' separately, in order to capture the date/time of line and polygon features. As for EXIF data, you can try open and download the photo attachment and then view it in an EXIF viewer such as http://metapicz.com/#landing. I'm not an expert in Pro's Map Series though. Let me if this helps. If you need further assistance from our end, please feel free to email [email protected] and send your data (if possible) and we will take a look. Could you also help identify which version of the mobile app was used for data capture? Thanks, Mandy ... View more

Hi Wade, The label of a button is simply the visual text display. You can have as many buttons as you want in a QuickCapture project, and each button simply represents a record to be captured. If you want to add a specific attribute to this record/button in addition, you can add a data field for the button's target feature layer from ArcGIS Online, for example, add a new string type data field called "Teams". Come back to QuickCapture designer, refresh your project (remember to save the project before reload), click the button (e.g. Record A) in project preview, in the DATA tab, you will see this new field shows up for you to define a value. In fact, because the data field is a string type, you can enter any text for it, team a, record a, record b, etc. When the button is pressed from the mobile app, the preconfigured value will be captured and sent back to your feature layer as the value of this 'Teams' data field. Your dispatchers will look up the data attributes for this new record and they will see the value "Team A" in there. Let me know if this helps with your question. Thanks, Mandy  ... View more

Hi Matt, Please try the following, 1. In the line layer's Table view, click the hamburger icon and click Show/Hide Columns.  2. You should see the new field in the list. 3. Toggle on the checkbox for this new field, it should appear in the Table view now. Hope it helps. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Mandy ... View more

Hi Tore, You can see the data capture progress directly in the mobile app: set up a web map that contains the feature layers where the data submit to for the QuickCapture project, this can be done by https://community.esri.com/community/arcgis-quickcapture/blog/2020/04/14/configuring-a-map-in-your-arcgis-quickcapture-project. The data will be sent when it's being captured, this means a line feature cannot be sent if it's still capturing/drawing. If your workflow accepts segments of lines are accepted, you can continuously capture line segments and sent them away, but this will ends up adding lots of lines to the feature layer. Let me know if you have further questions. Thanks, Mandy ... View more

Hi, Thanks for reaching out to us. From the descriptions above, I believe there are spaces to improve the design of your current QuickCapture project. Feel free to drop an email at [email protected] so that we can set up a video call to go through this in detail and better understand your workflow?  Thanks, Mandy  ... View more

Hi Robert, Please enter https://fws.maps.arcgis.com/ directly (remove 'www' from your URL) as the Connection in Intergromat and try again. Let me know if it solves the issue.  Thanks, Mandy  ... View more

Hi Kathy, What is your portal environment? Can you help look into the console of your browser and what is the error message showing there? For example, in google chrome, press F12, start over the save as process you had in Designer, when the error occurs, check the messages in your Console dialog. Please send your project screenshots and console messages to [email protected] and we will take a look. Thanks, Mandy ... View more

Hi Caryn, Sharing a QuickCapture project publicly requires the Hub Premium license for ArcGIS Online organizations. If your org does not meet this, the "Everyone" option is disabled on the sharing dialog and therefore the access code will not show. Please check with your org admin to see if your org is hub enabled. If hub-enabled is confirmed and you still have problems sharing projects publicly, please let us know. Thanks, Mandy ... View more

Hi Liam, Thanks for the video, I can reproduce the issue from my end as well. I noticed that the issue only occurs when QuickCapture has buttons and map displayed side-by-side while in floating mode, which in this case, it is barely useful since the screen is too narrow. However, this is a very good catch and I'll bring it to the team to look into this. Thanks, Mandy ... View more

Hi Ramen, You can get the location info from feature attributes at the moment, adding it to the captured photo is being planned but not in the app yet. We will also add two new device variables in QuickCapture in the release coming later this year: Compass: capture the compass (azimuth) value from the device when a button is pushed. Photo compass: capture the compass (azimuth) value from the device when a photo is taken. Is store/read such info from the GIS feature attributes going to help, and how will you use the geotagged info from the captured photo? This will help us understand the need better. Thanks, Mandy ...

Hi Liam, from your description above, I suppose you are talking about the multitasking feature of iPad Pro, where you can display two apps side by side on the screen. In this case, QuickCapture should work with no problem. If you can provide a screenshot or a short video of the issue (to [email protected]), that will help us identify the problem.    Have you also tried the side by side view inside of QuickCapture? You can display your project and the map side by side if you open the QuickCapture project on your iPad in landscape mode. Read about this blog if you are interested, your project will look like this in side by side view: ... View more

Hi Chris, The user input parameter in the doc specifies the value to be passed to Project User Input. Would you mind sharing a bit more of the work you've done? What information that you intend to pass from Survey123 to QuickCapture; In what scenarios do you need to jump between the two apps and what are the expected workflow? These will help us understand better of your questions. Thanks, Mandy ... View more
