I am using version 2.4.60 of S123 Connect and version 2.4.74 of S123. A couple weeks ago I updated my existing survey by adding a value (3) to the repeat_count property of one our repeats, "Treatments". When i published the survey, it required a delete of the hosted feature layer and creation of a new one. the one change on the hosted feature layer was addition of the field "Treatments_count". Now, whenever a survey is submitted, 3 new records are created in the Treatments table, regardless of how many the user created in the survey. For example, if the user completed 1 'treatment' in the survey, 3 records end up in the hosted feature layer - one record has a full set of values and two records have null values in all the fields without default values (except for objectid and globalid). This is not the desired behavior (I simply wanted to limit the number of repeats that could be created) and is not what is described in the current documentation (http://doc.arcgis.com/en/survey123/desktop/create-surveys/xlsformrepeats.htm) is the intended behavior to create a 'repeat_count' number of records for the repeat for each survey submission? Thank you.

I have a 'case number' field in our hosted feature layer that serves as a human-readable unique identifier. I need to prevent duplicate values being entered in that field (our current process is to run a query nightly to identify any duplicate entries). Is there a way to set a unique index on that field? Or any other ways to guarantee uniqueness of values as the values are being entered? In a sort of worst case, is there a way to query the hosted feature layer before the new record (or edited record) is submitted? If the value exists, the user could be notified. Thank you.

I have been running Pro 1.4 for a while. I was able to run my python scripts from a command line (using propy) as well as other IDEs like Visual Studio Code. Yesterday I upgraded to Pro 2.0.1 (I used the Upgrade process of the ArcGIS Pro UI). Now i cannot run my python scripts from the command line nor from my IDEs. The error message is 'python.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. When i open the Python view in ArcGIS Pro, i see the following error message: Failed to Initialize Python Interpreter When i open the Python Package Manager in ArcGIS Pro, it shows that my project is using the arcgispro-py3 environment, i can see many installed packages, etc. My path variable has the following settings at the end of the path string: ...;C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3;C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3\Scripts;C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\Scripts;C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python Any thoughts or suggestions on what i can do to get my python scripts running again? Thanks.

Hey Brandon. Thanks for looking into this issue. I really appreciate your help and persistence.

Hi Brandon. I dug up an older version of Survey123, version 2.3.29. When i submitted a survey using that version, 'null' integers are displayed as null/empty - not as 0. THis behavior does seem to be related to the version of Survey123.

Hi Brandon. Thanks for your reply. We recently updated to 2.4.72 - windows and android. I can't say absolutely that the problem started with the upgrade but it seems coincidental. If you give me your email address, i'll send a copy of the xlsform. I do know the Survery123 team has a copy of the form as they were helping us with some debugging efforts in the last 10 days or so. I am going to see if i can find an older version of the app to test against in the meantime.

Whenever we have a data type of integer that has a null value reported on the survey (for fields that are not required), the actual data value that is stored for the field is 0. Is there some setting or some such that we need to set so that null values are reported as null instead of 0? Based on some of our older data, this is a new 'feature'. We have records from older surveys where null integers are indeed reported as null instead of 0. Thank you.

I'd like to see symbol offsets for all types of geometry. I want to use the flag symbol from the Basic shape collection. As i increase the symbol size the flag moves further and further from its real location. If an offset option were available, i could move the icon back to its original position. In the image below, the gray circle is the true location. My hope is that with an offset i could move the flag so that its on top of the gray point. The approx map scale in the image is 1 '' is 0.25 mile

Thanks for the update on Issue #2 I sent a link to the survey to survey123 at esri.com. Let me know if you need anything else.

Hi Ismael. T hank you for your reply and suggestions. WRT issue 1, we get the 'Send Error' when using version 2.3.29 and 2.4.72 WRT Issue 2, so we end up with two different surveys - one based on the hosted feature layer (the original survey) and one based on the view of the hosted feature layer (that would be the new survey)? Are people able to export views from AGOL?

Some additional info.... when I view survey results from the Survey123 website, the Analyze tab displays data as expected. However, in the Data tab, i only see a spinner where the table should be displayed. And no points are displayed on the map. When i open my trusty Chrome dev tools, i see this error message: "init.js:113 Error: Layer does not support query capability." I am the owner of the survey and the underlying Hosted Feature Service.

It seems that I found a bug when submitting a survey. I stumbled on this bug when trying to restrict access to the hosted feature service of a public survey. I followed the settings recommended in this Survey123 blog post. In the hosted feature service settings, I checked the option 'Editors can't see any features, even those they add' Steps to reproduce the bug Open Survey123 app and ensure that i am not logged into AGOL Open the public survey, complete it, and click the Submit button The app seems to be submitting the survey, but when it finishes the 'error indicator' is shown on the survey's name. Clicking on the survey name, opens this dialog I tap the 'No' button and the dialog closes Then if I click the ‘Send’ button again (attempting to re-send/re-submit the survey), I get the following error message: And sure enough, when I query the REST endpoint of the underlying hosted feature service, I see that the survey was successfully submitted the first time. My attempt to re-send would indeed be creating a duplicate record. It seems that Survey123 is falsely reporting that the Survey submittal failed. If i go back to the hosted feature layer's settings and select the option 'Editors can see all features', i can successfully complete and send new surveys. Thanks

Perfect! thank you.

Hi John. That option does not work for me. When I use a URL without the "open=native" the survey automatically tries to open in a browser window. That is the case for Chrome and IE. Because my survey does not render correctly in a browser, I want to prevent the survey (as much as possible) from opening in the browser. Thanks, Tom

Is there a way to prevent the 'Open in Browser' option from appearing when users try to open a Survey via a URL? The survey was created with Survey123 Connect and does not work when rendered in a browser. I'd like to prevent our users from having the option to open it that way. We are using the 'open=native' parameter on the URL. Thanks.
