Hi @ZaraMatheson, Thanks for the update on this but do you know if it's likely to be coming out in the first half of this year? Also, do you have any updates on the likely licence requirements for this functionality? Thanks Anthony ... View more

Kind of crazy that this is still a limitation in Pro 3.6. It was something raised in 2019 here and there was even a similar bug from 2017. In the context of ArcMap being officially retired next year this really should have been implemented a long time ago without the need for someone to raise it as an idea. It's functionality that's even available in the AGOL map viewer. Could someone from Esri respond to this please to see if it is something being looked into. As a workaround (which really shouldn't be necessary) I often make the changes to a single feature and then save the style as a favourite. The style can then be applied via "Format all symbols" through the gallery tab.  ... View more

Hi @SimiBasu, I was wondering if you could check the feed again for me please as we're getting multiple posts a day for the article Make your Survey123 forms smarter with AI-powered image, text, and audio analysis. I thought it would have stopped by now but has been happening for the last few weeks. Any help on this would be much appreciated. Thanks, Anthony ... View more

Thanks for the prompt on this @Stefan_Thorn, I agree the lack of progress is a bit frustrating. @ZaraMatheson could you possibly provide an update on print templates please given we are now almost 18 months on from this features beta release? Is it going to be rolled out fully anytime soon and will there be any changes to the licence restriction? Thanks  ... View more

Hi @ShannonCardoza, Thank you very much for coming back to me on this. Please find my responses to your questions below:  Yes I can see the data layer tabs in Excel but they do not show under the layers section of the ArcGIS for Excel map despite doing so previously. With regards to formatting, yes, I'm simply adding a filter to my worksheet, changing column widths and highlighting some of the columns I need to edit so no changes to the actual data that would need to be synced. On my tabs not being recognised as from ArcGIS Online - the layers no longer show in the map window and although my tabs persist any edits to the data are not recognised so I get no notification to sync and the changes do not appear in the feature service. With regards to losing connection during a session what I mean by this is that I've had an occasion where I was making edits and the sync option was appearing and I was able to sync without issue. But later in the session I noticed the sync option was not appearing and then found that the layers were not showing in the map window. So I ended up with edits in my worksheet that were not able to sync to the feature service. I'm the only person I'm aware of this issue but I don't know if others use it regularly. I use it to manage our users as we have python scripts that run and extract user data each day so it's very useful for managing that. As far as I'm aware there is no way to re-establish the connection other than removing the tabs and adding them back in. A way to reconnect would be fantastic as re-adding the layers resets the formatting and means edits can be loss which is where the frustration comes from. Is there potentially some kind of cache that may be getting reset that results in the loss of connection? I'm using an ArcGIS Online account. Thank you for the article link I'll be sure to check that out. Thanks Anthony ... View more

Hi @SimiBasu, can also confirm that this appears to be working again now. Thanks to you and the team for looking into it. Cheers  ... View more

@Hi @PeterHodkinson, great to hear that this has been recognised as a potential enhancement. Do you know if here has been any progress on this recently? Thanks  ... View more

Hi folks, I have been told by our customer Manager at Esri UK that this is being looked into so hopefully we do see some improvements on how European server outages are reported in the near future. I'll post here if I get anymore concrete details.  @NoMonkey to provide some reassurance, before this year AGOL had been fairly stable for us as users since 2014 but this year appears to have been a bad one for outages. Again they have reassured us that this is being looked into so hopefully things get back to normal for the rest of this year and into 2026. What I would recommend though is to raise a ticket each time you see some kind of issue though as it's a good way to log the problems your org may encounter as a result of outages. Esri have insisted to us that they have not yet breached SLAs but the tickets you raise are good evidence if they ever do. Cheers ... View more

Hi @SimiBasu, Thanks for coming back to me again. So I'm getting this error message below. And then within the error outputs it's giving this error. Note I removed the client request ID as I wasn't sure if this related to me or the RSS feed but I can provide that if needed. { "status": 403, "message": "The underlying RSS server forbids incoming requests.\r\nclientRequestId: ********************", "error": { "message": "The underlying RSS server forbids incoming requests." }, "source": "rss-uks.azconn-uks-002.p.azurewebsites.net" } I did test my flow on an old run from 17th October and that still works so something appears to have broken it since.  Thanks, Anthony ...

@SimiBasu, thanks for your response. The feed URL is https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/feed/?post_type=blog. Is that still the correct one? Thanks   ... View more

Hi @SimiBasu, Do you know if the recent AWS issue has caused any problems with the blog RSS? My Power Automate flow hasn't run since last Friday and upon checking it I'm getting this error "The underlying RSS server forbids incoming requests". Any info on this would be much appreciated. Thanks, Anthony ... View more
