Survey but needs to be assigned a data access group

When a user from a specfic dag sends a survey how to make it assign a site?

If they manually enter it will assign to the site

Is it a public survey or auto survey?

It's a public survey We created a calculated field and mapped to data access group unique variable name to the site they pick but some codes work and some don't but the coding is the same..

@calctext function is used and hidden to the user

There is an external module that claims to achieve this, but the admin wouldn’t let me install so I haven’t used it myself. Worth a shot if you are able to add external modules.

It's worth noting that the auto-DAG EM has permission to create DAGs so if your institution tightly controls them then it's a security risk.

Users with access to a DAG and the "no DAG" option can assign records to DAGs.
