When will we see bar codes and QR codes supported as user inputs? Our workflow would be: push the appropriate button, scan the asset bar code, move on. Because accuracy is essential we can't rely on typed user input so we are stuck using a less efficient Survey 123 form.

This is also a desirable feature for my workflow. We do field asset inspections. QuickCapture would be good because our assets are either intact, damaged, or missing which have various field values dependent on which it is, but we do need to know what the asset ID is. If we could tap a button, scan a QR code, and keep walking it would be the ideal solution. The asset ID is too long and complicated to be easily typed in manually.

I am trying to use a small script to make calculations when features are created or edited. I can see webhooks at the item level for a feature layer collection but not at the individual layer level. Is it possible to trigger a webhook when a person edits or creates a record/feature? Example: A user creates a new point in a points feature layer in Collector. When they submit, a webhook recognizes it and sends a request to an AWS Lambda function that runs a spatial join on the point and a reference layer and then sets field values in the point based on the join. I am using AGOL not Portal Thanks

Oh I see, that is regrettable. Is there any plan to fix this issue so that Survey123 Connect always honors the system locale despite the form preview? Thanks

Hi Shwu-jing, Yes I see what you are saying. I am not speaking about the field application, I am speaking of the Survey123 Connect application. The field app honers the locale like it should but Survey123 Connect ignores my system locale and instead matches the form which can changes. Is this a bug? For example. I am working with a form that in the form view shows Portuguese but I need to change the settings and I see this: My users will never need to see this, only me, so it should match my locale rather than the form settings which is a separate element.

Hi Shwu-jing, Thank you for the information. Yes, I have many of our forms set to default to Portuguese as many of our users are in Brazil; this makes it so every time I open or refresh the form the whole environment switches to Portuguese and I have to switch it back to English. What benefit is there to changing the environment with the form, i.e. why was it design this way? Thanks, Ben

Hi, The tools and menu items in Survey123 connect change to match the language in the form. Why and can I change this. I develop forms that are used in several countries and languages so I switch between the form languages to make sure everything appears the way it should, however my native language is English and I would like all of the other tools and menus to remain in English regardless of the language the form is showing. Also if I view a form in another language it changes Survey123 connect to that language which will remain even if I close the form or enter into a new form. It would be better if the working language can be set for the environment as a whole and the language for the forms set within the form. Can this be done? Thanks

It would be handy if we could publish Arcade scripts as geoprocessing services in ArcGIS Online. I understand the limitations of Arcade but some functions can be quite useful and would make excellent geoprocessing services to insert into Web AppBuilder or other components of the ArcGIS ecosystem.

Now that Notebooks is integrated with AGOL it would be very useful to be able to publish or run the notebook as a geoprocessing service within other apps.

Thank you Doug, No luck with the if statement, I think it has to do with there being an existing value (even if it is null). I am very open to other workflows to solve the problem. It is a hosted feature service in AGOL so I don't believe that you can set attribute rules -- but I will look into that. How do you use Arcade? So far all I have read is that you can use it in popups and symbology but not to commit calculations; is there a way to use Arcade to automate the calculations? Manually doing field calculations would have limited utility for my workflow. Thanks

Hi, I found a work around to recalculate the whole form. When you have conditions set in the "Relevant" column it resets the value and automatically runs the calculations on a field when the condition is met. Notes: 1. This method should be used with caution because if the field does not meet the condition than any value that was already populated will be deleted and the value will be reset to null. 2. This doesn't work if the condition is immediately satisfied, e.g. if you set the condition to a static field. So I have a single question that I select "Yes" on and it updates the whole form. If anyone find a better way I am happy to hear it.

Hi Jay, Thank you for the insight; sad to hear but glad to avoid the pain thinking there is a better way while I tediously duplicate work. Also, thank you for the link to ArcGIS Online assistant I wasn't aware of this tool and it will be very helpful in overcoming this challenge. I will up vote the idea. Ben

Hi Jack, I may have made some progress although not fully yet. I followed this article to update service definition. I change "sourceSchemaChangesAllowed" to 'true' Everything seems to work but when I refresh the page it is reset to false. Let me know if it works for you. or anyone else if you have found a solution. Thanks.

Hi, I finally found the documentation on this. It seemed to work just fine for me. After I submitted the survey it went strait back to Collector.
