Why does my information from Survey 123 not translate to either and excel spreadsheet or into arc map

[ShawnSnyder1]

When I export to CSV or Excel Spreadsheet it doesn't translate properly.  It tells me Choice 1, Choice 2, not what I have entered into the survey for the answers to the questions.

Hi Shawn,

The data export from a survey contains the data value stored in the database instead of the label displayed.  As part of the survey publishing process, you can specify the values to store - see Publish your survey—Survey123 for ArcGIS | ArcGIS

James,

Thank you for your help.  It was very helpful and I am glad I now know what to do before I publish anymore Surveys.
