Finally found the issue, the solution was actually pretty simple: gis = GIS(url=portal, token=accessToken) only supports portal = https://www.arcgis.com as documented in the API reference. If you set it to your own portal's URL, it will not work. So the solution was to set it to the default https://www.arcgis.com .

I realise it is short lived for AGOL (30 mins), but pretty sure the token worked as I can append it to the end of my site's URL to access REST .

I use the following method( grant type = authorization code) to get an access token : Token—ArcGIS REST API | ArcGIS for Developers Then , I use the access token generated to authenticate using ArcGIS Python API as mentioned above .

Hi All, I've been accessing our ArcGIS Online site via token in ArcGIS Python API without any issues for the past couple of months. I seem to be having issues authenticating via an access token now. from arcgis.gis import GIS gis = GIS(url=portal, token=accessToken) In the API references , I also realised that it mentions the below: token Optional string. This is the Enterprise token for built-in logins. This parameter is only honored if the username/password is None and the security for the site uses BUILT-IN security. Our AGOL site is configured with Enterprise Login and I use the token authentication to login with my Enterprise login. Did something change recently and is this still a supported method of authentication? It has significant ramifications to our org if it is no longer supported. Regards, Weng

Hi, I stumbled on something peculiar( and potentially a bug) with sharing items to groups. When I select an item to be shared under my content ( Content-->Select Item-->Share--Edit Group Sharing), I am unable to see the group I want to share to even though I am the group manager with all appropriate rights to share to group. However, I found that I could actually go to Groups-->Content-->Add Item to Group to look for the content that I want to share and I was able to share the exact same content I needed to using this method. Why won't the group show up when I do it through the My Content ? Regards, Weng

Thanks Peter, glad to know that there is still a way to regain access via a temporary account .

Hi, I'm running into potentially a big issue in the configuration of Enterprise Login for an ArcGIS Online site. If I only enable Enterprise Login (ADFS) and disable all other types of logins (ArcGIS login, social media, etc), how would I regain access to the site if there was an issue with the configuration of the enterprise login? Here is an example of a situation that might happen: 1. Site configured to only login through Enterprise Login 2. IDP certificate expires and admin fails to renew IDP metadata in ArcGIS Online. 3. Enterprise login fails and all users (including administrators) loses access. How would an admin then gain back access into the site and reconfigure the correct IDP metadata ? My only solution is to keep an extra administrator level account as an ArcGIS managed login which could regain access to the site. It however defeats the purpose of configuring an enterprise login and is probably less secure . Any thoughts or solution to this issue is much appreciated. Regards, Weng

We did get a response from ESRI and the investigation concluded that it had something to do with poor network connectivity: The unfortunate data loss the customer experienced was caused by a disruption in network connectivity during sync. When network connectivity is disrupted during sync, an error message is provided, and the mobile device clears all pending edits without moving them to base. During the second sync attempt, no edits were pending and a successful sync message is provided making the user believe that the edits synced correctly It was recommended that users sync frequently , avoid storage large volumes of data on device and sync via wifi. Our user who experienced data loss did synchronise both in the field using mobile data and Wifi back in the accommodation. Syncing frequently was not practical due to bad mobile reception and if we wait till the user returns to base and sync, then you potentially risk losing data due to the size of the syncs you need to submit. Our mitigation method was to teach the user to copy the SQLite database off before the user syncs to ensure that there is a copy of it before syncing. This isn't very practical from a user experience point of view. It'd be good if ESRI can clarify the sync mechanism from Collector to REST as the step where it 'clears all pending edits' on network issue seems problematic to me.

ESRI has just updated BUG-000123907: Collector for ArcGIS (iOS) fails to display the Disp.. and indicated that the Display Field expression will no longer be used when displaying features on the subtitle. That is rather unfortunate as it does restrict the amount of information that can be displayed. Lat/Longs or polygon area isn't the most useful piece of information that can be shown in our workflow.

It seems like the issue has been fixed.

Hi All, It seems like my web maps and web apps are having issues with hosted feature services from AGOL. Each time the web map is loaded, a different layer will give the error - <Layename> cannot be added to the map. I also notice that some layers that successfully loaded on the webmap were returning error 400 when debugging the issue on the browser. As most of our feature services are sitting on https://services1.arcgis.com, was wondering if anyone else is having the same issue. AGOL Health dashboard reports that everything is fine. Regards, Weng

I've contacted ESRI Support and they have logged this as a bug : BUG-000123907: Collector for ArcGIS (iOS) fails to display the Disp.. Hopefully a fix is on the way in the next version .

It looks like you are on Collector Classic, the 'subtitle' field is controlled by the Display Field when you publish the feature service. Worth noting that this field is not honoured in Collector for ArcGIS at the moment.

I'm having the exact same problem as well. Scripting downloads of attachments from large feature services fail because of Error 503 . Did you have any workarounds or retry scripts on Error? The only way I can think of is to slow the request down but that would mean that the downloads take significantly longer. Our feature services are in services 1 or services 5

Hi , One of my field worker is having issues submitting records through the latest version of Collector . On submission of updates , Collector returned an error saying Ünable to Submit without any further information. We are using ArcGIS Online and we are not using offline maps. I was able to replicate the same problem on another iPad . Afters investigating the issue more throughly , I suspect this has something to do with the optimisation process of the feature service. I found that the optimise drawing checkbox is checked but greyed out possibly indicating that there is a hung process . I did some troubleshooting by refreshing the services on REST and also trying to force disable it through Update Defnition in REST . None of them was able to get rid of the issue. I have similarly experienced the same issue before on other feature services that I published but most of them worked by just refreshing the layer from REST. Anyone else having this issue?
