Hi Deon, Can you please confirm what version of the field app you are using? Also the device and operating system? Are you using an external GNSS receiver or just the internal receiver of your device? Your syntax is correct for the pulldata () function (assuming your geopoint question is named 'location'), so I'm just trying to get more information to reproduce the behaviour. Please let me know and I'll try to troubleshoot further. Thanks, Brett

Hi Lorence, One thing to check is that your new 'July 2019' thumbnail image isn't using uppercase letters in the file extension. Currently, only lowercase (eg .png or .jpg) file extensions are supported. Please confirm and let me know. Thanks, Brett

Hi Lauren, You're right - the data is stored as the 'name' in the database. The 'name' / 'label' pair in your Survey123 choice list is converted into a coded domain when you publish to ArgGIS Online which is then used when viewing your data through the website. You can prove this to yourself by opening the Service URL of your layer and then Query the REST service: My example is using: and the Query result is: Hope this helps, Brett

Hi David, By default, your surveys already capture this information. The ArcGIS Online hosted feature layers published by Survey123 contain Creator and Editor fields (as well as CreationDate and EditDate). These fields store usernames from the ESRI logins, assuming your surveys aren't public and a login is required to access them in the first place. Examine the Data tab of your feature layers through the Survey123 (or ArcGIS Online) website. You will need to click on the table settings to expose these extra columns. If you specifically need to store the email addresses for your logged in users this can also be done easily when creating your survey. Simply use the email question type in your survey when publishing from Survey123 Connect. This adds a hidden field that stores the email address linked to the ESRI login used to complete the survey. Please note that adding an email question to your survey from the Web Designer has a different outcome. This requires the person completing the survey to type in their email address into a text field, it just forces them to enter an address in the right format (eg something@domain.com). Hope this helps, Brett

Hi Matt, We now understand the root cause of this issue and have a workaround for you to implement. Essentially you just need to enable the 'Uploads' Capability on the Feature Layer View. Please refer to the information below and let me know if this fixes your problem. We intend adding a Known Limitation note to our Documentation to explain this situation. Thanks, Brett Known Limitation: For Surveys published from the Web Designer to Portal 10.6, submitting a survey with an attachment (eg image) will give the following error: This is because the 'Uploads' Capability is not being correctly added to the Feature Layer View when the survey is published. *Note this Limitation does not affect Portal 10.6.1 or any other versions (10.6 only), and only when publishing from the Web Designer (not from Survey123 Connect). Workaround: Need to manually enable the 'Uploads' capability on the Feature Layer View. This can be done using the 'Update Definition' operation on the ArcGIS REST Admin API: 1) Log into Portal using an Admin account and navigate to the Feature Layer (Hosted View) - this was automatically generated when you created your survey via the Web Designer. 2) Click the View URL button for the Feature Layer View (bottom right of page): 3) Add /admin/ to the URL to access the ArcGIS REST Admin operations, eg: https://machine.domain.com/webadapter/rest/admin/services/Hosted/survey123_4e9085065b374452be83ef4342f22a6e_fieldworker/FeatureServer/... Click the 'Update Definition' option that has appeared as a Supported Operation at the bottom of the page: 4) Copy and paste the following into the Input dialogue and click 'updateDefinition': {"capabilities": "Create,Editing,Query,Update,Uploads,Delete,Extract"} You will see {"success" : true} when the Capability has been successfully updated. 5) You have now added the ‘Uploads’ Capability to the Feature Layer View, surveys with attachments can now be successfully submitted.

Hi Maaza, What happens if you type arcgis-survey123:// into chrome (without your itemID)? This should prompt you to launch the field app. It sounds like the registry key that launches the field app (from the arcgis-survey123:// URL) is either corrupted of missing. Open Regedit from the command line and have a look to see if this folder exists: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\arcgis-survey123. It should have an entry that specifies the path for the Survey123forArcGIS.exe: If the entry doesn't exist, you may need to delete the arcgis-survey123 folder and re-install the field app. The correct registry entries will be recreated when you install. Depending on your work environment, registry access may be disabled by a group policy. This means that the registry entries can't be created when you install. You won't get any warnings of this during the installation so you'll have to refresh the registry view and check again yourself to confirm. Hope this helps, Brett

Hi Maneesh, I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you looking to calculate the percentage of choices that are selected from a select_multiple question? If so, you can use the count-selected() function to count the number of choices from your list that have been selected. This can then just be divided by the number of possible choices in your list (which is 5 in the following example) and converted to percentage. The count question can be hidden if you like, for example: Hope this helps, Brett

Hi again Guilherme, Up until recently, the Survey123 Feature Report functionality has only been accessible via the Survey123 website. Behind the scenes, there is an API that manages this functionality, which can now be used for other applications. We are inviting our Early Adopter Community (EAC) to try out the API and provide feedback. The API consists of the following functions, available at https://survey123.arcgis.com/api/featureReport: createSampleTemplate checkTemplateSyntax createReport/submitJob jobs/ queryJobs More details can be found on our EAC website, please join (if you haven't already) and give it a go. We're keen to hear your feedback. Brett

Hi Andrew, While using the 'pages' style in the 'settings' tab of your survey, a new page will be created when the 'field-list' appearance is added to groups or repeats. All other questions (that aren't within a group or repeat tagged with the 'field-list' appearance), will be visible on every page of your survey. It sounds like you may be trying to have a new page for each repeat record? This is not currently possible, but I can open a request enhancement if you provide more details of your use case and exactly what you're trying to achieve. We have an open issue for the blank page behaviour you are experiencing. I've added your post/comments to the issue. Regards, Brett

Hi Alma, Are you experiencing this for all surveys or just one in particular? It sounds like the folder already exists in your ArcGIS online account. Have you tried deleting the relevant survey folder (along with the Form and Feature Layer in it) from your ArcGIS Online account? You may also need to delete the .itemInfo file from the relevant 'My Survey Designs' folder on your machine (eg C:\Users\username\ArcGIS\My Survey Designs\SurveyName) before publishing again from Survey123 Connect. Hope this helps, Brett

Hi Andrew, You should be able to configure questions to appear based on relevant statements within a group whilst using the 'Pages' survey style. You should also be able to apply a compact appearance to a group within a page. Note that your 'page' groups, those that are assigned a 'field-list' appearance, cannot also have a compact appearance applied. If you'd like to send through more details (eg device, operating system version, Survey123 app version etc) and even your xlsform I can try to reproduce your issues and help trouble shoot further. Best regards, Brett

Hi Guilherme, On-premises Survey123 installation is currently in Beta and is available for download through the Early Adopter Community here. The Early Adopter website also contains this documentation to help get you started. This on-premises installation allows you to set up on a local server that is not connected to the internet (or has limited connectivity), the elements of Survey123 that are usually accessed via the internet. The installation includes the webpages used to view and manage surveys and their results, and also the conversion tool required to turn xlsforms (created in Excel or an equivalent spreadsheet software) into the xforms used in the Survey123 field and web apps. It doesn't currently support the reporting functionality of the website. While this may be introduced in the future, it is not in the current product timeline. Best regards, Brett

Hi Nick, I can replicate this issue exactly as you described. I’ve logged an issue for this and added your post to the comments, but unfortunately can't give you a timeline for a fix. Another suggested workaround to enforce a character limit and give a meaningful message when exceeded is to use a constraint and constraint message on your text question within the repeat. Here is an example of what that might look like in Connect and in the Web Form: This will ensure the UI flags the question when the limit is exceeded (just as it does for text questions outside the repeat). You'll notice that the default message ("Please input (field_length) characters at most") is used outside of the repeat based on the actual field length alone. While my slightly different message ("Please enter ....") needs to be manually added to the constraint message field in Connect as shown above. Hope this helps, Brett
