Hi everyone,

I'm sure this is something easy to do, but I can't seem to find the option for it. I'm trying to change the display label for the surveys in the Inbox to show just one field (ex: Alert Status) instead of all the other field values it is appending to the label by default.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You can choose which field(s) to display in the Inbox using the "instance_name" column of the "settings" worksheet in the survey's XLSX Form. You can customize how survey labels look in the Inbox by concatenating text with field values, HTML formatting, etc.

The following is an example of concatenating "Alert Status " with the value from the survey's "alert_status" field to return "Alert Status: active".

You may want to consider adding another field in the label to help ID a specific record. With only "alert_status", the Inbox will only show "active", "resolved", etc. so if you're looking for a specific "active" survey, you have to open each "active" survey to find the one you want. Adding a field or combo of fields that are a little more unique to each survey, like a survey ID, surveyor name, date, etc., makes it easier to pick the correct survey from the Inbox.
