You can create a survey for a site using the New button located in the site’s content library and selecting Feedback. You can also create a new survey when adding a survey card to a site’s layout.
To create a survey, you must have a Publisher role or equivalent role assigned to your account. You must also own the site for which you're creating the survey or be a member of its core team or supporting team with edit access.
Anyone with edit access to a site or page can add a survey card to the layout. You can also add a button with a link to the survey to the layout. To add a survey link in the site's header, use a menu link.
Yes, you can add a map question when designing a survey and select one type of drawing tool (point, line, or polygon) for respondents to add a geographic feature. You can also set an extent to help respondents navigate to the area in question. Any survey that has a map question can use a Map focused display.
All published surveys appear exactly as they've been designed. This is called the Standard display in ArcGIS Hub. If the survey includes a map question, the map is displayed inline with the survey's questions. The Map focused display presents questions alongside a full-screen view of the map extent set for the map question. This option is the recommended display for all map based surveys and is the default experience for surveys created with the Map Survey template. Survey123 Connect does not support the Map focused display.
The Embedded apps setting determines how content opens that is shared on a site layout or through its search results. This setting is recommended for all surveys, regardless of their display setting. It ensures that the survey opens immediately to the selected display. If the Embedded apps setting is disabled for a site, any survey that uses the map focused display will not open as a full-screen map and instead will open to the standard Survey123 display. A survey that uses a standard display opens to the About page (/survey/id/about). This page is populated by the metadata included in the survey's content details. It also includes a link which opens the survey in standard display.
All surveys are mobile-responsive, but you can consider how they’re displayed on your site to ensure high performance on mobile devices. Surveys that are embedded on a site using the Embed option should use the disable on mobile setting. Otherwise, scrolling becomes limited on smaller screen sizes. Instead, use the Feature option so the survey opens in a new tab. Spatial surveys should use the map focused display to give respondents a full-screen navigable map and drawing tools.
For surveys to be accessible in your site’s search results, you must share it to the site’s content library. Ensure that the survey is also shared to the audience for whom you want it to be visible.
If you are a survey owner, core team member, or organization member and have access to view a survey’s results, you can view them within the survey editor in ArcGIS Hub or by opening the survey in Survey123. You can also use the survey results feature layer to add data visualizations to a site or page layout.
