Hi Doug, That doesn't work. It does show the label/alias for all other fields, but apparently it is a known limitation of cascading selects. But thanks for trying! Lori

Hello, I have not seen a workaround for this problem, therefore I am trying to create my own. Here is the schema. I have a select_one choice list (dca_category) that is used as a cascading select for another select_one question (dca). Because the name field is displayed in a dashboard I created, I have used the pulldata calculation to return the more informative label into another field (dca_label). However, I have over 5000 previous records that I need to go back and populate the dca_label field. I imagine I can use the Field Calculator in ArcGIS Pro to do this, but what is the syntax? Can anyone help or provide a better solution? Thanks, Lori

Hello, I made a survey, webmap, and operations dashboard of our team's data. We wanted to be able to share that with our stakeholders on the web. However, our organization requires me to give ownership to our GIS administrators in order to make things available to the public. I did not want to lose access to all our data and so they made copies and then took over ownership. Unfortunately that required the copied dashboard to be rebuilt. That is unfortunate but not a deal breaker. We have two existing problems we help with. 1) The photos taken within each survey record did not copy over. eg. if you click on a point one or more photos should be at the bottom of the popup. Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS 2) Since it is a copy, new records no longer populate the dashboard. Is there a way to populate two feature layers? I tried to build it on the _stakeholder version, but that too required the parent feature to be "changed ownership". Thanks! Lori

Hello, I have a survey published using an older version of Survey123 Connect. I would like to update the xlsform to the newest version. How can I do that? I would like to take advantage of new features, such as paged forms. Thanks, Lori

Hi Wright, Brandon Armstrong answered this for me some time ago on a different thread. Here is what he worked out Hi Lori, After speaking with you over the phone and then doing some additional testing, we found the following workflow to successfully append the data from your exported file geodatabase to the existing feature layer referenced by your survey while maintaining the Editor Tracking information. These steps start after data from all previous surveys have been exported to file geodatabase format using ArcGIS Online... 1. Login to ArcGIS Online or your portal in ArcGIS Enterprise and select 'Content' from the top panel of choices 2. Select the survey folder which contains the feature layer and form of the survey which you will be appending data to 3. Select the feature layer within the folder > Settings > disable 'Keep track of who created and last updated features' > Save 4. Open ArcGIS Pro 5. Add the previously downloaded file geodatabase data and any table containing attachments to the Current Map IMPORTANT: Instead of using Field Mapping in the Append gp tool options, ensure that the source field(s) have the same name as the target field they will be appended too. For instance, if Field_1 of the source dataset (file geodatabase feature class) will be going to Field_2 of source dataset (feature service), rename Field_1 within feature class, to Field_2 prior to proceeding. 6. Run the Disable Editor Tracking geoprocessing tool against your File Geodatabase data. 7. From the Contents pane—Right-click the feature class from your downloaded dataset > Design > Fields. 8. Check 'Read-Only' for all editor tracking fields (CreationDate, Creator, EditDate, Editor) > Save 9. Run the Append geoprocessing tool with your file geodatabase dataset as the input and the feature layer as the target 10. Login to ArcGIS Online and navigate to feature layer to ensure that all editor tracking information from file geodatabase has been preserved 11. Re-enable the option to 'Keep track of who created and last updated features' from the Settings of the feature layer > Save The editor tracking information from the appended data should now reflect it's original information and any new records will record the appropriate editor tracking information at time of collection.

Hi Brandon, Thanks for your reply. I followed your instructions faithfully. Unfortunately this did not work. Now all the values are blank for the fields Creator, CreationDate, Editor, EditDate, instead of filling them with my userid and todays date. Therefore it did not preserve the original values. Any other ideas? Thanks!

Hello James, Yesterday I asked nearly the same question. I am doing this in Pro with Append, but the original Creator and CreationDate entries are unfortunately not preserved. Instead they ALL update to my username and today's date. How can I fix this issue?? As Stephen said, PLEASE HELP! and THANKS FOR ANY HELP!!

Hello, I am looking for the best way to migrate survey data from 3 earlier survey versions into the current Survey123 hosted feature layer. The surveys were similar and I have renamed and added fields as appropriate to make them all the same. I then used the "Append" tool in ArcGIS Pro to combine into the current survey hosted feature layer. That all worked swell EXCEPT that the Creator and CreationDates have all been overwritten to my login and todays date. I then tried to use "Calculate" to copy the original data into the appropriate fields. However editing is not possible. I did try the "Disable Editor Tracking" tool but it can't "see" the hosted feature layer in question as it wants feature class, table, or mosaic dataset as the input dataset. I also unchecked the "Read Only" buttons in the "Fields" View. But that didn't work either. And if I use the drop down to select "Data Source" there is nothing configurable. Sooooo, how can I fix this? Thanks! Lori

Hello James, I have the same issue. However, the Disable Editor Tracking tool doesn't seem to recognize the hosted feature layer created by my Survey123 survey. It says it will only work on a feature class, table, or mosaic dataset. How can I get it to work on my hosted feature layer? Thanks, Lori
