Hi Adrian, I spoke to someone else about this who had the benefit of seeing it live. As it turns out there was something about AutoCAD not being able to deal with the data that AGOL exports, meaning that dedicated conversion software was required to allow AutoCAD to see it. Civil3D and other engineering specific bolt-on programs can accept it, but AutoCAD itself cannot. The issue has not been dealt with and now I know why the struggling was happening. Thank you for trying, I really appreciate that you reached out. ☺ Daniel

Hi Adrian, I can indeed ZOOM then EXTENTS after trying to IMPORT the files from the download folder, but the model space is still blank and black. When I try to use the IMPORT command CAD only lets me import one file at a time. I have tried importing them one by one and nothing seemed to happen. There must be something I’m missing. What I could really benefit from is a step-by-step process for how to get a polygon layer to show up in CAD. It is baffling that I cannot simply export a layer of shapes from one drawing program into a different drawing program that is also designed to deal with layers of shapes, in just one to two easy steps. Can you still help, Adrian? Thanks for your efforts this far.

I cannot share the contents of the shapefile as the data is sensitive. The bottom two files are .shp and .shx respectively. No I have never tried to extract shapefiles to CAD before. I have no idea how to open the shapefile anywhere else. This is why I tried asking for help.

Adrian, Thank you for replying, this is the contents of the folder when I downloaded the shapefile.

Hi, I am trying to export a polygon layer from ArcGIS Online into AutoCAD 2017, however all the guides I can find seem to be fixated on ArcGIS Desktop and do not seem to apply to the online version. I've tried downloading the shapefile and importing that into a CAD drawing using the IMPORT command and finding the downloaded shapefile (.shp) and I also tried the .shx file, both to no avail. Clearly I'm missing some vital step(s) and getting this wrong, but there don't seem to be any current/relevant video guides or written guides that seem to even start with a process that I can see in ArcGIS Online. Would somebody please show me how I can get this right? Thank you in advance.
