Hi Joshua Herman‌, I note the bugs in the links in this feed are all marked as 'complete'. I am currently having this issue with a feature service published in Survey123, however I cannot add anything ('no collectable layers are visible' even though the layers is drawing happily on the map) to the parent feature class (I do not have the child table in the collector project as it is populated by Survey123). I have this problem in the Windows collector app (20.0.1.0) and Android (20.2.1). No problem in iOS (20.2.2). Any ideas? or do I just have to wait for the next version? ... View more

Rather than improving communication between the two, cant they just be combined? I realise they have been developed in isolation in separate countries, but the custom URL scheme is a pain! My staff work completely offline, so having to flick back and forth between apps to see what they have captured is way too many keystrokes, not to mention having to ensure they have the most up-to-date map and survey downloaded before they go out in the field - the workflow is huge. Then the pain for me of having to trawl through a bunch of related tables to get my data out the other end, I just want one app that collects all of the data in a useful way! Surely some clever programmers could drop all of the form based stuff into collector, or if that is too hard they could be bundled together into what looks like a single app and do all of the custom calls in the background? The amount of customisation I have to do to use the 'ecosystem' of apps makes me feel like Esri should be paying me, not the other way around! ... View more

It would be great to do this. I can currently do it in Survey123, but as Survey123 has very limited options for recording line geometry I would like to be able to populate a field based on other fields (in this case, an average) as a form is filled out in a webmap and in collector. ... View more

surely it would have been less work to integrate the two rather than all the work put into the custom URL scheme, building better forms in collector and adding lines and polys in Survey123? All I want is the map-based collection of collector (ability to download basemaps as you go, record a GPS track, etc.) with smart forms from Survey123 (cascading domains, conditional fields, pretty formatting). Alas I have to build a line feature with a related table so that I can do geometry in collector and attribution in Survey123, then not see the whole picture in either system until I find some mobile coverage, then not be able to generate a full report from Survey123 as it is only looking at one table, not both #RantOver ...

works like a charm, thanks!! ... View more

Please don't fix that bug!  at least, not until functions exists that allow a running total. Looks like coalasce() wouldn't help as I have more than two inputs and never know how many would be populated (I had hopes for sum() and count() but they only work for repeats). In the mean time, I will push users to the mobile app. ... View more

Hi #ismael chivite‌, can you expand on this please? - Do I download it from Flow (as a .zip or a .json?) and put it in the survey folder and re-publish? or - Do I create the flow in Survey123  then press the cloud download icon in Survey123 connect? I tried the second of these options and can't see any extra files or information, so I don't know if it has done anything ... View more
