Let's say I have {expression/expr0} written, and I want to write a new expression to use the same output but scrubbed a different way. Can I reference $feature.{expression/expr0}? That syntax doesnt work, but hopefully this is possible and I'm doing it wrong?

I'm trying to pass a variable for the fieldList parameter of the FeatureSetById function. See line 13. If I remove [relFSAtts] from line 13 and return all fields, my script works fine. But when I use a variable in an attempt to retrieve only some fields, no featureset is returned. My console output looks correct, so I'm not sure why it's not working 'ParentTapNumber', 'CustomerName', 'CustomerContact'‍ Any ideas on how to make this work? I want to avoid hard-coding attributes where possible, because this is a script I'll use frequently. //Set the name of the related table, foreign key field, and attributes to include in the feature set var relTable = "MyTableName_5212" var relKey = "ParentTapNumber" var relAtts = "'CustomerName', 'CustomerContact'" var relFSAtts = "'" + relKey + "', " + relAtts console(relFSAtts) // Get feature attributes from parent table and build query to get related records var featID = $feature.TapNumber; var featQry = relKey + " = '" + featID + "'"; // Get feature set from related table based on ID in map, and filter it with the query var fSet = FeatureSetById($map,reltable,[relFSAtts]); var fSetFilt = Filter(fSet, featQry); //Declare placeholder variables for each attribute, and declare utility variables var CustomerNameResult; ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Thanks Brandon. I created 2 separate ideas, for anyone who may come across this thread in the future: https://community.esri.com/ideas/17444-survey123-theme-grid-apply-to-groups-not-entire-survey https://community.esri.com/ideas/17445-survey123-theme-grid-set-bordercolor-property

Setting theme-grid on the entire survey adds borders to every question which are distracting (in my opinion). If we could set the borderColor property in the body::esri:style column it would be helpful!

I would like to apply theme-grid to individual groups in a survey, rather than the whole survey itself. Often, there are only a few questions in a longer survey that I may want to consolidate onto a single line, this is where I would find this option useful. Reasoning: This could potentially help to work around the incompatibility of theme-grid and table-list in the same survey. Setting theme-grid on the entire survey adds borders to every question which are distracting. Alternatively, if we could set the borderColor property in the body::esri:style column it would be helpful (see separate idea here)

Hi Brandon, Thanks for the additional info. See attached example, the w appearance was not working as expected because I did not have the "theme-grid" parameter in settings. Unfortunately, the "body::esri:style" setting does not support grid borders, so that coupled with the incompatibility with table-list makes this a less viable option for what I'm trying to do. Using w appearance without theme-grid works if I don't need to set a custom length for a specific question. Is this by design or by chance? It gets me 95% of where I need to be, but I don't want to build this in to my survey if it will cause me heartache down the road (a-la the "supportsApplyEditsWithGlobalId" issue many of us faced a few months back). I suppose at the end of the day, it would be beneficial to be able to apply theme-grid at the group level, and not at the survey level.

Some brief searches didn't yield anything, but if I've missed a guidance doc somewhere please point me in the right direction. I'm using S123 Connect v 3.6.137. I have a long survey, and I want to place some grouped questions into columns using appearance parameters (w1, w2, etc.). Is this supported without using the theme-grid setting for the entire survey? It seems to work, but individual question overrides (i.e. setting a multiline text question to full width) are not working as expected (see screen shots). Alternatively, I can place the whole survey into theme-grid, however there are a few drawbacks that make that less than ideal for me. Mainly, the grid borders are distracting (to my eyes). Is there a way to control border color, weight, and appearance? Also, I have a long Yes/No question list that I currently display in a table-list, and this does not appear to be supported with theme-grid. Am I missing a setting somewhere to make this work? Thanks in advance!

Thanks Adrian. That is what I am doing now (manually updating symbology after publishing). It would just be nice to have an arrow line style in Pro that was compatible with ArcGIS Online, so you could set the arrow symbol in Pro, then publish a HFS and not have to go into the settings to update the line style after the fact.

Thanks, will do!

I would love to hear if this is available now, particularly in the app. We have a huge survey with 100+ records in the inbox at any given time, each with many attachments. Performance is not great with this setup, so the ability to target a specific feature to edit (in app) would be huge!

I have a HFS on ArcGIS Online and I need to make some edits. Like most GIS data ,the underlying geodatabase used to publish this service contains subtypes and domains. The data was published this way to AGOL, and both are present when I edit in web apps. However, I need to do heavy geometry editing, which necessitates desktop. Neither Pro nor ArcMap are handling the subtypes well. In ArcMap (10.6.1) when I create a local edit copy, everything seems to work fine until I sync. The new features in the HFS have null subtypes, so I need to go and populate those manually after syncing the edits. I've noticed that the local edit GDB has an underscore appended to the subtype field (i.e. "Subtype_") so I'm guessing there's a bug where this is not mapped back to the "Subtype" field in the HFS. So, on to Pro. When I edit the HFS directly in Pro (2.4.1) the attribute domains are not present for a feature, unless the subtype is null. I've posted about that issue here with no luck yet. I've resorted to making the edits in ArcMap then going through Pro to populate the subtypes after I sync. As you can see, this is pretty inefficient. What am I missing?

I'm having an issue similar to the end of this discussion, where my domains are not recognized in ArcGIS Pro (2.4.1). The data was published with domains intact, and the features are rendered on the subtypes. When I edit in a web app the domains are working as expected, but when I bring the data into Pro for editing, they are not. Field with domains are simply treated as an unbound text field. Interestingly, when I set the subtype to null, the domains re-appear, and then they will disappear again when I set a subtype value. The underlying gdb used for publishing doesn't have subtype-specific domains (i.e. every subtype is using the default domains assigned at the feature class level. Michael Miller or Kelly Gerrow do you have any insight as to what the cause may be, or how to fix this? It's impacting productive editing (just can't do much beyond simple attribute updates in a web app).

Is the Pro append tool smart enough to grab the attachments and related records too? Or do you need to manually append those?

‎06-07-2019

I tried to use this script (via a toolbox, added new script and pointed to the .py fle) and it runs in less than 1 second with no output. Any ideas on how to figure out what's going on? I also tried pasting the code directly into the python window in catalog and running it that way (both times I updated the scrip to hard code the path to sqlite db and the out folder ) wit no luck.

James Tedrick‌ I too am unable to export to file GDB from the survey123 site (see attached error message), though I am able to export the HFS directly from the AGOL site. This is only happening for some surveys.
