Yeah, I started on this project several months ago, but then it got shelved for more pressing items and I'm just now getting back to it. This new script did the job! Thanks!

I'm just now getting back to this project. The script you did is not quite working. Punching the returned coords into Google Maps takes me out to a spot in Wisconsin. I'm working with a sample parking sign. Here is the correct coordinates in Iowa State Plane North and lat/long: Here is the lat/long that is being returned by the script: Here is the spatial reference of the feature class:

I'm working in an Enterprise Geodatabase (Enterprise Version 11.3), and I have a point feature class that is in Iowa State Plane North. I currently have attribute rules that run on Insert and Update to calculate the Northing and Easting of the points. I have been asked to also include attribute fields called Latitude and Longitude and have those fields automatically calculate the Y & X values in Web Mercator. I don't believe that Arcade in an attribute rule can handle that process. I have tried creating a scheduled process to calculate the geometry, but so far my Python scripts have been generating values that aren't remotely close to being correct. I would prefer not to have to manually run the Calculate Geometry tool, like I have the past couple of days. Does anyone have pointers on how to write a Python script that would calculate the X & Y in Web Mercator? Thanks!

I'm running Enterprise 10.9.1. I have a user that I would like to give the ability to edit attributes, but not the geometry of a feature class. Am I able to do that using feature dataset privileges in my enterprise geodatabase?

Johannes, When trying your expression, the expression validates fine, but when saving the attribute rule I get an Error 002941 "An expected Field was not found or could not be retrieved properly." The attribute field names match exact with my feature class attribute fields. I've attached a screenshot. Thanks

Hello, I am creating Attribute Rules for some feature classes. I have been able to successfully create rules to calculate the X & Y of my point feature classes, but I have some polyline feature classes that need some geometry calculations performed. I need to be have an attribute rule(s) that would calculate the X & Y of both the start of the line and the end of the line. This rule would run on Insert and Update. I have four attribute fields (Upstream X, Upstream Y, Downstream X, & Downstream Y). Thanks in advance for any assistance. -Ben

I have a map in Collector for performing code violation inspections with two date fields, one for the initial inspection and one for a follow-up inspection. The first inspection date field will always have a date, but not every code violation requires a follow-up inspection. Occasionally a user may accidently tap on the follow-up date field, but they can't clear the value from the field. There isn't an option to delete the value, only to select a different date in the spinner. How can this date value be returned to null in Collector?

This is an often requested feature for our Code Enforcement Officers. All of their photos taken with cases are required to have a timestamp to be admissible into court as evidence. As of now, they take photos using the free Timestamp Camera app from the iOS App Store. They then have to one-by-one attach the photos to the case in Collector. I really hope this option is implemented soon. It would save a lot of time, both in the field and back in office. The timestamps should just be the date and time, not a location due to potential poor GPS accuracy that could say the photo was across the street or on the next door property. The ability to have a black background to make the text stand out from the rest of the photo is a must as well.

I have successfully published a survey to my Portal via Survey123 Connect, but I would like to interact with it via Survey123.arcgis.com. As far as I can tell, I can only sign into the Survey123 site with my ArcGIS Online account, not my Portal account. Is there any way to link Portal to the Survey123 site? Or is there a way to interact with the published survey and results on Portal in a similar manner to how you can interact with it on the website?

I am new to Survey123 Connect and I would like to be able to store the survey design forms on a network drive location instead of on my local machine. Our network is backed up several times a day, whereas my local machine is not. How can I change the survey design path? #Survey123‌ #survey123connect‌ #DesignPath‌

I am trying to create a topology that would cover my storm sewer system. I have one feature class for the sewer mains and then several feature classes for the various structures, i.e. one for inlets, one for outlets, one for manholes, etc... What I hope to accomplish is developing a set of rules to state that the mains need any one of the points from the various point feature classes to cover their endpoints. Also all points need to be covered by a main line endpoint. Is it possible to create topology rules with 'or'? E.g., Storm_Mains endpoint must be covered by Storms_Inlets Or Storm_Mains endpoint must be covered by Storm_Outlets Or Storm_Mains endpoint must be covered by Storm_Manholes, etc...
