@MobiusSnake You. Are. A. LIFE SAVER! I've been monitoring these recent posts from @Bud closely because I have a very similar use-case/issue. In my workflow, I create feature layers with a python script that references a JSON file with the service definition. I only needed to add a slight modification - default value is just "NEWID()" I'll share my workflow/screenshots in case it might help someone: After creating the feature layer, I opened it in a web map and created a feature. At first I was worried because the interface looked like this: But after submitting the form and checking the attribute table, the value was populated!! I'm going to test further to see if I can get this integrated into the app I'm building, but this is huge. I really thought it wasn't possible to do this kind of thing and lots of research didn't turn up anything. Thanks again! ... View more

I'll add to this and describe my use-case for a similar functionality, whether it's an integer specifically or a UUID field (which is what I'm using). In my case, we're working with datasets that depend on unique ID's, and we need these maintained for data integrity regarding relationships in external postgres databases. We can't rely on the auto-generated ObjectID's or GlobalID's since those would not be preserved if the layer ever had to be overwritten. Right now, the solution I have is to use a scheduled ArcGIS Online Notebook that scans the dataset every 15 minutes for features that don't have a UUID assigned in our "uniqueID" field and populates it. The downside to this (besides credit usage) is that there is a potential for up to a 15 minute delay of when a user creates a feature in an AGOL app and when it actually displays in the external app I'm building which integrates with the feature layer, since we require that unique ID and don't display features that don't have it assigned yet. It's really a suboptimal solution and would be solved if something like attribute rules or other auto-calculation functionalities were allowed in AGOL feature layers. ... View more

Right now I have a similar use-case and I am using a scheduled Notebook to assign UUID's after a feature is created. If there's a way to get this to automatically populate on creation I'd love to know!! But I wasn't able to find it in my initial research when I set this up a while back....fingers crossed maybe I just missed something and it's actually possible?  ... View more

I know you said there are no errors when using the compatibility checker, but are you getting any specific errors messages either in Field Maps or when trying to generate offline areas in ArcGIS Online? In the Field Maps app, go to troubleshooting and clear the logs, then try to download again. I'm assuming it will fail and might display some sort of short error, but most of the important info should be in the logs so go back and check. Since you cleared first, everything in the logs should be related to the recent error. If you can share that here, would be super helpful! ... View more

Republished would be worth testing like @Laura suggested, but you also should be able to check on the display field by pulling the hosted layer directly into Pro, or checking the REST service endpoint in ArcGIS Online. No need for the original layer.  ... View more

Do you have a screenshot of what fields you're trying to delete? For example, in this interface if I select any "normal" fields I see the trash can delete icon. However, if I select fields like OBJECTID or GlobalID, that icon isn't available.  ... View more

I'm not sure if there's a way to enter a specific angle, but I did want to share that you can use the keyboard shortcuts A and D when the map view is in focus to rotate the map. Perhaps that would be easier than dragging with a mouse?   ... View more

Yikes, that sounds rough..... There were a bunch of posts showing up after the Feb update here on Community about people experiencing buggy behavior (unfortunately, this usually happens after a big update. The nature of software updates...). I don't remember anything specific enough that relates to what you're describing. For what it's worth, I haven't personally experienced issues like what you're describing. Probably worth reaching out to Esri support if you don't get some additional responses/insight from this post. Good luck! ... View more

Adding my support for this idea, and hoping someone from the Esri team will at least be able to provide an update on whether this idea has been reviewed and considered? It is a very common request for a user to need to select multiple values from a domain list, and Survey123 is not always the most appropriate solution for a given workflow. Here is some additional information and suggestions based on my experience. Use-case Example: A field worker collecting data using Field Maps needs to fill out information for a "Chemical(s) applied" field when doing herbicide treatment. It is important to have dropdown values for the chemical options rather than blank text fields to enforce consistency in the dataset. The only current workaround is to have multiple fields for "Chemical 1", "Chemical 2", "Chemical 3", with as many fields included as the best guess for the maximum number of chemicals that might be applied. This adds a cumbersome amount of overhead if new fields need to be added, results in crowded pop-up layouts, and is ineffective for dashboard summary purposes where it would be more appropriate to query on a single field. It is also a less intuitive user-experience and a frequent complaint I've heard from clients for which I've configured Esri applications.  Proposed Solution: In Survey123, select_multiple questions are internally handled as a comma separated list of values. I propose Field Maps could handle this the same way, and additional fields could be calculated after the fact if needed, as it is fairly simple to manipulate comma separated strings with Python. Hope this elaboration can maybe help with getting traction on this idea. Thanks! ... View more

Have you tried looping through the layer collection and adding them in reverse index order? Assuming Waypoints is layer id 0, it's adding them in ascending order of layer id, with each new one added on top. So reverse it and it should be correct. ... View more

Love this idea, especially since it's available in other Esri tools like Experience Builder. It's a very useful feature in the development process and ensuring good QA of applications. ... View more

I'm not completely sure if this will work, but does this workflow allow you to access calculated values within the title field? https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-online/mapping/catch-more-waves-using-arcade-featureset-expressions-in-forms ... View more
