Hi there, As per this question: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-indoors-questions/why-does-the-quot-generate-floor-plans-from-point/m-p/1678899#M1232 The "Generate floor plans from point clouds" tool should support E57 files.  These are often the default point cloud format that is captured by indoors scanners, and having to convert to LAS is an additional conversion step that takes time, adds complexity and requires additional storage space. In addition, please see this (at this time I cannot create an Idea in ArcGIS Pro, it keeps hanging, so my idea text is below) ArcGIS Pro idea that LAS datasets should support additional file format files as inputs, so point cloud processing tools will be more flexible. Thanks, Marc @JasonHineEsri  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ArcGIS Pro Idea: More file formats for las datasets Currently LAS datasets can support .las, .zlas and .laz.  This is only a subset of available point cloud file formats.  Another common format is E57 which is often generated from indoors scanners.  LAS datasets should support additional point cloud formats, making them a more flexible container for feeding 3D point cloud data in tools that process this. Please see this question for additional context: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-indoors-questions/why-does-the-quot-generate-floor-plans-from-point/m-p/1678899#M1232   ... View more

Hi there, The output from the Generate OIS Intersection tool is geometrically fine, but the attributes leave a bit to be desired.  It seems to have some odd summary of the input data in an OIS field, with a string that shows the input feature class and the OID of the input feature.  Could you please include all attributes from the input features, or at least common ones like the names.  I would suggest at a minimum that the input FC should be an attribute and the OID should be a separate attribute to allow joins back to the source data if required.

Hi there, We want to deploy an ArcGIS SharePoint page to every SharePoint project workspace that our project management system generates.  To do so I want to also create a group, templated map and app in our Portal, then link the Portal map to the SharePoint map.  This way our GIS specialists can add layers to the map in Portal and they will appear in the map in SharePoint. I don't think this is possible currently, but happy to be proven wrong.  Alternatively a scripted tool that scans the layers in a portal map and adds them to the SharePoint map would work, but I do not know if there are any methods or ways to add layers to the SharePoint map programatically.
