Modify the maximum file size for an image attachment in ArcGIS Survey123

Summary

In ArcGIS Survey123, the size limitation for image attachments can be modified to enable uploading smaller or larger file sizes. While limiting the image attachment size helps control bandwidth usage, data storage, and survey compatibility, it may be necessary to upload larger image files in the survey form. This article provides workflows to set the maximum size limit for image attachments in ArcGIS Survey123 and ArcGIS Survey123 Connect.

Note:
Although a custom size can be specified, note that the maximum size cannot exceed 100 MB for ArcGIS Online, and 20 MB for ArcGIS Enterprise.
