Hello @Pedro_DavidPereira and @Robert_LeClair , Did you manage to find a solution ? I am having the same requirement (backup both archiving and attachements) but can't find to do using ArcPy. Thanks !

Thanks @imansbburg for your reply. I believe I found the root cause of the issue: it is related to the size of the webmap. Basically, when you are referencing Map Image Services, even if you don't modify them, it copies the symbologie of each layer and with CIMSymbols for example, size of the webmap can quickly grows. It seems like when using FeatureServices, it does not behave the same way. It looks like a limitation from ArcGIS Pro which tries to `addItem` or `updateItem` using x-www-form-urlencoded. I discussed it on this other thread: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/portal-for-arcgis-11-3-cannot-create-a-webmap/td-p/1641280 Basically, after having increased Portal for ArcGIS maxHttpPostSizeInBytes property, I was able to update my webmap and no longer had any issue.

Re: ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1-11.2: Restoring tile cache breaks scene layers

Hi Philippe, I confirm: no workaround worked and no patch was ever provided (at least at the time). We upgraded to 11.3 as soon as we could and while running 11.2, we involved IT to have snapshot backups. The good news is that it is fixed at 11.3. The bad news is that now I am facing the same kind of issue with new objectStore ! Following post is mentioning 11.4 but the issue remains at 11.5 ! https://community.esri.com/t5/high-availability-and-disaster-recovery-questions/can-t-backup-arcgis-enterprise-11-4-webgisdr-since/m-p/1572197#M814

So troubleshooting the case with support, there is actually a 10MB limit when posting to Portal for ArcGIS with 'x-www-form-urlencoded' just like ArcGIS Server: https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/enterprise-administration/server/serverproperties/ Unfortunately, this parameter is not exposed on Portal for ArcGIS Admin API... Thus my case ended up with the following enhancement: ENH-000175387: Add support for changing the maximum size in bytes for POST requests sent to Portal for ArcGIS through the addition of a maxHttpPostSizeInBytes property in the ArcGIS Portal Administrator API. But to me ArcGIS Pro should be clever enough to switch by itself to 'multipart/form-data' to allow bigger webmap to be publish rather than modifying the maxHttpPostSizeInBytes configuration. As a consequence, I created the following idea: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/arcgis-pro-should-allow-publishing-webmap-bigger/idi-p/1645135 Please vote 🙂

As discussed in https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/portal-for-arcgis-11-3-cannot-create-a-webmap/td-p/1641280, it is not possible to publish webmap bigger than 10MB on Portal for ArcGIS from ArcGIS Pro. It may seem a lot but it is actually quite easily achievable by publishing a webmap referencing FeatureService from a MapServer (eg: /services/foo/MapServer/X). As described in details in the Community post (with Python script attached), it is related to way ArcGIS Pro post data. It should be clever enough to switch to 'multipart/form-data' when webmap is bigger than 10MB. For ESRI people, related case 03981126. Thanks for listening !

@RajkumarPadmanabhan, do you now understand the issue and the difference of behavior ? Any logical explanations to that ? We just have a fresh AGOL instance created in Europe for privacy reason and would like to start on a good foot with OIDC but we can't because of this. User will wonder why am I `alastname7823` ? So we are considering back SAML as idp which would be a step backward. On ArcGIS Enterprise, we do not have this issue of course. Any recommandations ? Should an Idea be created ? A support case ? Thanks

Hi @CanserinaKurnia , I have today 2 signIng certificates and my system does not seem to like it: Is it expected ? Is is the rolling way ? Thanks

Hello, I am facing an issue with publishing a webmap composed of 8 point layers with each one having a unique value renderer of 4 values: so nothing crazy... When publishing it, ArcGIS Pro says it fails and the following message is displayed: Status: Failed ErrorMessage: Failed to add web item Debugging the issue with Fiddler, it is failing on the following request: POST /portalwebadaptor/sharing/rest/content/users/foo/additem An error occurred while processing the request. If I remove a single layer, it works. So I thought the issue was specific to this one layer, but when I added it back and removed another one, it worked as well. I then thought about a size limitation thinking my CIMSymbols were too complicated and the JSON generated was too big but it is actually only 10MB and according to the documentation "Add Item" operation should be able to handle up to 5GB: https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/users-groups-and-items/considerations-and-limitations/ I debugged a little more and try to upload my webmap directly on the HTML Sharing API copy/pasting the parameters send by ArcGIS Pro captured from Fiddler ('title', 'type', 'typeKeywords', 'extent', and of course the 'text' one which contains the webmap) and surprise... it worked ! So what could be the difference ? The answer is the type of POST ! - ArcGIS Pro is sending the webmap using 'x-www-form-urlencoded' while - ArcGIS HTML Sharing API using 'multipart/form-data' I then wrote a simple Python script (attached) with 2 methods: - one POSTing the webmap using 'x-www-form-urlencoded': it fails - one POSTing the webmap using 'multipart/form-data': it works. And the webmap then is fully functionnal on the MapViewer. I then wonder whether it was an IIS WebAdaptor issue or a Portal for ArcGIS issue but it actually fails on both: - on IIS: the error is: An error occurred while processing the request. - on Portal for ArcGIS: ConnectionResetError(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host', None, 10054, None) But I am now stuck and I can't upload a relatively simple webmap except manually on the Sharing API after having captured the webmap JSON generated by ArcGIS Pro with Fiddler which is really not scalable... Any experts around having an idea ? Thanks, Nicolas

Hi there, Facing the same issue. Needed to add a deepLink in a popup in order to open a custom desktop application in my case. Found this interesting article about how to bypass the Maps SDK for javascript HTML sanitizer: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/js-api-arcgis/mapping/using-html-with-popups-in-the-arcgis-api-for-javascript Downside is that you need to code that instead of the no code configuration offered by ArcGIS Online's mapViewer but still a workaround is available. Thought it would an interesting reference for anyone stumbling on this issue.

Thanks for your reply @RajkumarPadmanabhan . I would like the same user format. Not an issue about migrating from SAML to OIDC. Do you see what I mean ? Did I miss anything documentation wise ? Thanks

Thanks for the detailed reply @YannCabon! Much appreciated

Same issue on ArcGIS Pro 3.4.1. Did you find out what was the issue ? Thanks

Chiming in... Facing the same limitation. As suggested in: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-javascript-maps-sdk-questions/road-map-for-repeating-labels-for-polygons/m-p/1626169#M87277 I created an idea: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-javascript-maps-sdk-ideas/add-support-for-repeating-labels-for-polygons/idi-p/1627722/jump-to/first-unread-message Feel free to promote it with kudos !

Thanks for your reply @Noah-Sager. Done in: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-javascript-maps-sdk-ideas/add-support-for-repeating-labels-for-polygons/idi-p/1627722/jump-to/first-unread-message

I am just hitting the limitation of labeling polygons which cannot be repeated: https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/api-reference/esri-layers-support-LabelClass.html#re... I have very long and narrow polygons (tunnels) and for this use case, having a single label at the center of the polygon is really not convenient. This property for lines has been added at 4.22 so a while ago. It would be great if this support could be added. Thanks for listening as usual ! Best regards, Nicolas
