I just wanted to touch base again and see if you guys had time to review what my GIS Manager posted on the last REPEATS thread the other day in regards to images not showing up for us whenever we use the Repeat function. Here's what Mark posted ...

I'm working with Tony on this project.  We realized the table does show attachments are enabled and that's where the images are stored so disregard Tony's question.  What we have discovered is that images are being saved but we are unable to view them in ArcGIS online.  If we export the feature service to a FGDB we can view the images in ArcMap.  However if we use the map that is created when we publish the form we have noticed that the related "repeat" table does not show in the details tab and we can not view photos.  We also tried creating a new map and adding the feature service which does pull in the related table but again were unsuccessful at viewing images.

We used the sample form in the XML documentation in the Repeats section.  This form gave us very similar behavior in that the default map created by publishing the form did not allow us to view images but when we added the feature service to a new map the related layer was also added and this time we were successful in viewing the images in AGO.  The difference here is that the sample form used a geo location point and created the "repeat" table as a layer instead of a table.

This issue only exists when using the image type in the repeat function.  We do not have any problems viewing photos in AGO when not using the repeat.

Hi Tony,

on the first issue (Default Web Map does not include related table): the web map created automatically by Survey123 Connect for ArcGIS does not include related tables. This is something that we will try to resolve. Thanks for reporting this. In the meantime, you will need to add the feature layer to a web map manually if you want to see related records.

on the second issue (Can't see images from a repeat in the Map Viewer): I checked with the ArcGIS Online team and it looks like the ArcGIS Map Viewer does not support showing attachments on related tables or layers. This is a known limitation. It would be best if you raise this via Esri Tech Support so an enhancement request is created.  At this moment, only ArcGIS for Desktop can display attachments in related tables/layers.

I recognize this may not the answer you were waiting for, but I hope it clarifies where things stand.
