Hi, just wondering if there is any plans to support non-photo, video or audio attachments.

I have a scenario where a user will generate a text file from a python script and they want to attach the file to a Survey123 record.

Cheers

Dan

Hi Dan,

  • Audio: Currently available. Simply add an audio type of question using Survey123 Connect for ArcGIS. You will be allowed to record up to 2 minutes.  Your recording will be saved as an attachment.  If you want to try this quickly,  in Survey123  Connect look for the Audio XLSForm sample.
  • Video: Not implemented yet.
  • Other formats (PDF, Word, Text file etc): In our road map. While not officially supported, if you happen to run the Survey123 field app on Windows, you will actually be able to upload any file by adding an Image type of question into your form. Since the file browser shows all file types, you can upload anything... but again not officially supported, just yet.

Thanks for this Ismael, appreciate it. We have previously attached other formats using the image upload, but I just wanted to confirm that it is officially unsupported - for now.
