Different Capabilities for Layers in Feature Service

Question

Is it possible to have different capabilities for each layer in a hosted feature service? For example, in a Hydrant inspection map with related tables, could the Hydrants be capable of Updates, while the tables are not capable of updates? I have had to symbolize the inspection status within the Hydrants which requires allowing updates. However, I would like to have updates turned off for the inspection and maintenance tables so they cannot be edited once submitted. If not possible through publishing the service, can it be done via rest services? hosted featureservice

Hi Janet,

Portal for ArcGIS 10.1 will not show these options. Version 10.7 should show these options.

The following documentation outlines this functionality at your version.

https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/latest/use/edit-features.htm

There are a few things we should check on here:

* -Is the layer you are targeting hosted? 
* -What do you see when you go to edit setting page? 
* -What kind of layer are we working with here? Raster? Vector?

Alternatively, we can open a ticket with Esri Support to ensure everything went smoothly with the upgrade. Being able to work with Esri Support will ensure that you can get everything in a connected and healthy state post upgrade.

In lieu of a support ticket, perhaps a screenshot of your setting page?

I will do me best to figure this out here. You have the power, we just need to unlock it!

Hopefully we can get you editing like a pro here Janet.

Andrew,

Our portal is currently being upgraded from 10.1 to 10.7. These options don't appear in either version as far as I can tell.

Greetings Janet,

This was in ArcGIS Online. However, Portal for ArcGIS should also provide these options *if* you have ArcGIS Server with a managed database (ArcGIS Datastore) that is federated with Portal for ArcGIS.

In ArcGIS Online we handle all of this for you. What version of Portal for ArcGIS are you currently running?
