I wrote me vio tentada which was was marked incorrect and should have been me vi tentada  but the lesson itself talks about me vio obligado.

Hola Trefor

The sentence in the lesson is:

Se vio rodeado de cámaras y le entró el pánico.

He was/found himself surrounded by cameras and he panicked.

 

I think you are getting confused with the pronoun. This is referring to "he" as you can see in the translation, therefore the pronoun is "se" and the verb is conjugated as "vio" in the 3rd person singular. 


This is why you need:

Me vi tentada... 

 

I was tempted...


The pronoun and the verb are for 1st person singular (yo).I hope it clarifies it.

Saludos
