Hey all,
I'm making a web map on ArcGIS Online. When I open the attribute tables of the feature layers while I'm in the webmap, they're blank. The field headers are there, but there is no data. When I open the features as shapefiles in a .mxd file, the attribute tables are fine. This seems like something that probably has an easy fix, but I've tried everything I can think of. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
I found that if I had hidden fields in ArcMap during the publishing process the attribute tables on ArcGIS Online would be empty. Once I made sure all my fields were shown in ArcMap I could publish to ArcGIS Online successfully and hide fields on the webmap. It's a pain if you frequently publish maps with hidden fields, but it works.
Seven years later and this problem still exists. I've spent days trying to figure out the issue when I stumbled upon this discussion. It's absurd that this hasn't been resolved by now. Or has nobody logged a bug for it yet?
I found this same behavior in ArcGIS Pro 2.3.0. My Related table published empty until I made all fields able to view.
It appears to be the case. At least that is what I found out today after 2 hours of working on it. I hid one field that was always empty, and when I republished the layer the layer showed up empty in AGOL. When I unhid the field, and republished, the layer displayed correctly, queried correctly, and showed up in the attribute table correctly.
So does this issue mean if you have a feature class with 20 fields and you hide 1 field in the mxd when publishing, then the attribute table in the webmap is blank for all fields?
I concur that if there are any hidden fields then the attribute table is empty. If you query the layer it returns 0 records. While publishing from ArcGIS Desktop, using Preview, the layer displays correctly. But when published the data is either not there, or there is no way to get to it.
This is a BUG.
Dear all,
I am experiencing the same problem and it seems that the Map Server URL approach is unfortunately not an option for me as I don't have an ArcGIS server...
Has per chance any progress being made over the past 1 1/2 months on where the problem is coming from and how to solve it using a FeatureServer URL?
Thanks in advance for your answer.
I tried replacing the FeatureServer URL with the Map Server URL, and the table became usable (this isn't really a useful fix because you don't have as much control of the layers within the map).
When viewed through an app (I created one on WAB), the table is completely visible.
Wish I knew what was actually wrong. Sorry this is isn't more helpful.
Did you ever find an answer to this? I'm experiencing the same problem. I've tried adding the feature layer to a different webmap but I get the same results.
Our server is version 10.3. I tried replacing the FeatureServer URL with the Map Server URL, and the table became usable. But I don't like using the MapServer URL because I don't have as much control of the layers within the map.
Interestingly, I created an app with WAB and looked at the web map through it. When viewed through the app, the table is completely visible. So that kind of fixes the ultimate issue, but I would still love to know whey the table isn't visible in the web map in the map viewer.
What happens if you replace the FeatureServer URL with the MapServer URL (REST) of the same layer?
Is the ArcGIS Server version 10 SP1 and above?
Try adding the specific feature layer to a new web map on AGOL, and check if the issue persists?
I added a feature service from our ArcGIS Server. I published that from a .mxd and the attribute table and all other features seemed to work fine within the .mxd.
I added a feature service from ArcGIS Server REST URL. Could that be the reason or the problem?
How did you add your data to ArcGIS Online? Published from ArcMap or Added a zipped shapefile from Computer or Added a feature service from ArcGIS Server REST URL?
You did zip all the bits of the shapefile including the *.shp, *.shx and the *.dbf at least prior to posting?
Howdy Elizabeth,
That does seem rather odd. Would it be possible for you to share your zipped up shapefile on here so we can test it?
