We have an internal Portal instance that is using Branch Versioned feature classes that are shared out to a Distributed Collaboration on our ArcGIS Online Organizational account. This is set up so editors can log into AGO and edit features as needed for these various feature classes. These workspaces are synced automatically every hour. This seems to work fine but when the syncs happen, the editor tracking fields DO NOT retain the editor values from the external source (the actual editor). Instead it looks like it's from my own account on the inside -- I'm assuming the internal Portal account that is initiating the sync?
So:
- When the initial sync is completed all features on the AGO side have me as the editor and creator at the time the sync occurred
- Features that were edited by users on the AGO side show their correct tracking information in the AGO feature class
- When the features are synced back, the user that controls the sync is now the editor/creator of those features
Is there something I'm missing here? I need the original editor information to be synced back and forth correctly.
