Kevin,
I am not sure if this is an approved workflow to achieve what you want or what the adverse affects could occur within your data set, but I think this could give you what you want?
This is a tricky work flow and I am not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing. PLEASE TEST ON SOME TEST DATA TO OBSERVE whether this is a behavior you would like to see within the data set or possible data corruption with multiple copies of the form, and so forth.
I believe once you have the survey form within the Inbox you could try the following -
- open the survey from the Inbox,
- then attempt to exit out of or close the survey and you will be prompted to "Close this survey and lose changes", "Continue this survey", or "Save this survey in Drafts"
The last option will move the survey form from the "Inbox" into the "Drafts" and retains all of the data. However, this is not the copy that you are looking for. Next you will need to
- Go into your drafts folder and click on this survey form to open it.
- After it opens you will be able to "re-submit" the form; which places the form into your "Sent" folder.
- Back out of the "Drafts" folder and head into the "Sent" folder
- you will see your form within this folder.
- Click on it and it will ask if you want to "edit the form" or "create a copy of the form."
- This would give you a copy of the form that started within your "Inbox".
AGAIN, this is probably not an APPROVED workflow from the Survey123 Team and needs to be tested on some TEST DATA to ensure that all attributes are retained.
One quick question though, does your form have any repeats within it? If so, then the Inbox would not be an option for this workflow.
Mike
