A coworker and I are getting the same results with 2.8.1. We have tried new cloned environments, one of them is on a completely fresh install of Pro 2.8.1 on a new computer. We've installed through Pro and through Python Command line. none of the methods result in anything except 'Failed to load system tools' My screenshots look the same as wfrerichs's.

Hi, I'm trying to autopopulate or pull data from fields in a parcel layer into the Point feature layer my Survey is saving into. For some reason this worked fine in my head, until I realized that using the URL pass-throughs are only meant for the same layer the survey is published off. The data is on Enterprise, the survey is using a pre-published feature layer based on a schema, but is empty of data so far. So my envisioned workflow was: Field Maps - choose a spot on a parcel, place a point feature there. Use the label of the new Point to open Survey123 and send attributes associated with the parcel underneath that Point to my Survey123 via URL passthrough. Problems/Other options and why they don't work I could geocode the point to get the address but I need to grab other information in the parcel table also. I could see reversing the workflow, starting in Survey123, opening the survey, going to Field Maps, then back to the survey, but I'm not sure how to pass attributes between the layers in Field Maps either. Related table isn't an option as 1) the points don't exist yet and 2) not all of the surveyed Points will have an associated parcel, some will have two Points on one parcel, some of the parcels are duplicates with the same APN but different other information to seed the Point with. I'm not sure how I would set up the related table when the points don't exist yet. I've seen this issue referenced over and over, but no solution (at least not that I could understand.) Some mentions of javascript and pulldata, some mentions of using Arcade (but the examples didn't use separate layers) https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/is-there-any-workflow-that-will-replace-the-combination-of/td-p/851481 https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/auto-populate-survey-with-attributes-from-more-than-one-layer/td-p/1034658 https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/select-parcel-polygon-in-linked-map-amp-pull-data/m-p/1042906#M33588 https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/can-i-auto-fill-a-value-based-on-geopoint-from-survey123/td-p/859589/page/2 Thoughts?

@Anonymous User I just did this and it broke my portal, the URL for my portal home page stopped working and redirected on the Portal machine to the IIS default page. From other machines you just get the Server Error 500 page. I had to just uninstall it quickly to get the system working again. Going to make my own post but but I was very bummed. Edit: Turns out installing includes a Portal restart and you shouldn't do it on the Production machine midday, and if you do, don't panic. Everything will come back eventually.

Hi XanderBakker, thanks for the reply. I saw that but I guess I wasn't clear enough in my question - we need the computer user/Windows login, not the ESRI user. The Arcade still doesn't appear to be able to get the computer user, unless I'm not understanding how to ask it to do so.

Thanks for sharing! I didn't find your idea when googling - there's so many ways to word these ideas and questions. I'm pleased it's in the product plan also. We just ended up making several database users and doing editor tracking on one of the databases, but we aren't ready to do that for all 12 of them and would prefer to be able to use our standard method involving usernames. I hope it is enacted soon.

Hello! We currently have Attribute Assistant calculating last_editor with the CURRENT_USER value of 'U' (windows login) and I'm trying to figure out how to do the same in Attribute Rules in Pro. I know I could enable Editor Tracking, but that won't help us as our enterprise geodatabase is connected to with database authentication using one connection file, so everyone ends up showing up as 'company_editor'. We need to be able to know the editor was 'user1' 'user2' etc. Any leads, tips, tricks, etc?

I'm wondering the same thing, I tried this yesterday and got it to open the record in edit mode but it still created a new feature when Submit was pressed.

We ran this version of AEC Project Delivery for a year and we did not do any copying. We have an on-prem server/Enterprise, published services from that, and collaborated between our AGOL Site and our On-Prem Portal. We then created groups specific to each client, sorted the data into those groups, and invited the users from our client's AGOL sites to the groups in our AGOL sites. We created maps on our AGOL site with the referenced data. We then created apps on the client's AGOL sites that consumed the maps on our AGOL site. The referenced data was secure, the clients could only see their own data, and nothing was copied. Cons: It was complicated, and clients couldn't edit the data.

I'm a year late, I hope you've gotten this fixed. We haven't seen this problem - all our customer users are added to groups representing their unit, and the items/maps/layers/data they are allowed to see are shared only with those groups. Then that group is exposed to the Site - usually through a Gallery or an embedded app.

I'm brand new to WAB Dev and have looked at lots of documentation, but wanted practical advice before diving in. We are struggling with standard WAB wiping out our prebuilt queries when we have webmap problems or update (add/delete/move the order of) layers in our webmaps. We have standardized data schemas and are rebuilding the exact same queries in the widget for about 20 apps every few months. Losing the query definitions seems somewhat random. Can we build a custom query widget that holds our queries in WAB Dev, so we can re-apply our queries with code instead of by GUI like we were doing in WAB, and then reuse these in multiple apps? The data schemas aren't changing, so it seems like a pre-built custom query widget would hold the queries properly. Please let me know if I need to clarify my question. Thanks!

We had a similar scenario and on a large enough scale (we provide GIS and administer web GIS services for twelve small clients) that ESRI's only answer was for us to purchase a second instance of Enterprise and install it on a Cloud Server. We chose Azure. Now we have an external web enterprise we replicate the data to, the clients can edit from that Portal, and we replicate the changes back down to our system of record Portal/Server. But, our on-premise enterprise Portal is also exposed to the internet so I'm not sure if, conceptually, this solution would even work in your case. It did make managing 12 AGOL sites a lot easier, instead, we just have one Portal and can use Sites. I know that wasn't your question though, sorry to digress.

This would be so nice, as we get into Collector more and have to copy our system of record data from state plane into WGS84 to play nice with the basemaps. We're only a few databases in but as more clients as for it we'll be doing it in the dozens soon.

I'm preparing to update our Enterprise from 10.7 to 10.8, but the server VM isn't very large and I'd love to get the 12+ GB of space back that these files are taking up. Does anyone know if these folders and installers are still needed once the Enterprise is set up and working? C:\ArcGIS\Deployment\Downloads\

Holy cow this is exactly what I have been looking for for the last week. I haven't had a chance to try it yet but thank you! Does this let you analyze/compress/analyze as well?

Can someone help get me started on a code to update the user profile thumbnail for everyone in a certain group with the same thumbnail? This is an Enterprise Portal, and all the users are in the same group. I figured I could use user.update.thumbnail("path") but am not sure how to get the list of users in the group and then iterate those. Is this a do-able idea? Thanks!
