Creating Pull Data Functions in ArcGIS Survey123 Connect 

Hey there! Great question. In Survey123 Connect, when you use the pulldata("@geopoint") function with the getValueAt parameter to query a feature service based on a geopoint, it generally returns the attributes of the first polygon it intersects with, if the point intersects multiple polygons. Unfortunately, as of now, there isn't a built-in way in Survey123 Connect to let the user choose from multiple intersecting polygons directly through this function. But here are a couple of workarounds that might help: First, have the user place a point where the intersection happens. Then, provide a list (maybe a "select_one" question) that shows all polygons intersecting that point, which you would need to populate programmatically based on the point’s coordinates. Once the user selects a polygon from this list, you can use the pulldata() function to pull the attributes of the selected polygon into subsequent questions in the survey. Survey123 Connect lets you write custom JavaScript functions in your survey's XLSForm. You could write a custom function that takes a geopoint as input, queries a feature service for intersecting polygons, and returns a list of intersecting polygon names/IDs. Then, use this list to populate a "select_one" question, allowing the user to select which polygon’s attributes they want to use in the survey. I hope this helps! Be sure to check the latest Survey123 Connect documentation or reach out to Esri support for the most up-to-date info. 😊

Exact same setup - just make sure your survey user has access to the feature layer they’re pulling data from when they’re signed in 🙏

@@adam_corcoran It worked just fine. I was searching for this feature for ages, thank you A LOT. Said that, I have one more doubt, I want to pull a select_multiple question, but it only pulls the first value selected, do you know how to make it pull every choices selected?

I've noticed that my pulldata function does not work when using the result of a select_one_from_file.csv. Has anyone else noticed this? I'm using the newest 3.18 version. Great video, by the way!
