We have Enterprise 12.1 installed on separate VMs in Azure. The Portal VM has a managed disk (Premium SSD) for the content, db, index and temp folders.  We're looking to migrate the Portal content directory to an Azure Blob storage container (Standard performance tier). Why? This would save cost Give us must more storage capacity. Every time we upgrade Portal, we have to increase the managed disk size to accommodate 2.5 times the storage space as is currently being used. Then after the upgrade, who wants to go through the process of decreasing the size of the managed disk, copying over all data to new disk, detaching, ect. It's a pain, so the end result is constantly paying more for allocated disk space.  Anyway, can we follow these steps to migrate the content from managed disk to blob container?  https://doc.esri.com/en/arcgis-enterprise/latest/administer/changing-the-portal-content-directory.html?pivots=os-windows Basically, copy /content directory into our new storage container, then edit the path for content directory to this JSON format.  { "type": "cloudStore", "provider": "Azure", "connectionString": { "accountName": "saexample", "accountEndpoint": "blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net", "accountKey": "abc123%%^key~", "credentialType": "accessKey" }, "objectStore": "https://saexample.blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net/portalcontainer" }   Questions about that JSON string:  1) is objectStore correct (refers to the URL of the portal content blob storage container)? Or, does this actually refer to the URL we have registered as an object store in Server Manager, for cache query storage? 2) Can we use an azure private endpoint connection for this blob storage container?     thanks!     ...

We have several repeats in a form that hold images. To force those repeats to start a new page in the template, we added a Word Section Break (Next Page) inside of a S123 conditional statement, like so.   Then the "general_photos" section starts, printing exactly 2 photos on each page. Works great. But, after the last "general_photo", if there are NOT any "cultural_res_photos" (see condition after the photo table above) we still get a blank page inserted at the end, because of the Section Break (Next Page).  How do we control this? Even though that condition is NOT met, the Section Break still gets inserted.  All I hear about, is how AI is coming for my job, yet, in our Azure GOV environment, there is NOT a way to have a powerautomate flow or AI, delete the last page of the generated feature report, LOL.    ...

The goal is to publish a geoprocessing tool that: Opens predefined Pro project Sets definition queries on hosted feature service layers (date ranges) Turns ON the hosted feat. service layers Zooms to a predefined bookmark Exports to JPG Pretty simple, right? Not so much. No matter what we do, the hosted feature service layer(s) aren't drawing. Sometimes they do draw, sometimes they don't; most often not.

I have a nested repeat of noncompliance and noncompliance_photos. ${#noncompliance} $#{noncompliance_photos} ${/} ${/}   In a feature report template, how do I use the $feature keywork to get the position of each record?  ${#noncompliance}${if (noncompliance_photos | getValue:"count")>0} Non-compliance Number: ${$feature | getValue: "position"} Photo Number: ${$feature | getValue: "position"} ${/}${/}   The above only gets the position of the inner-most repeat, not the parent repeat.  Any help with this?  ...

I'm filtering a repeat in a report template like so, works great.  ${#issues | where:"issue_resolved='Yes'"} ${rpt_issue_info_resolved} ${/}   Is there a way to add a condition to that filtered repeat, that depends on the count of the filtered records? Something like this: ${if (issues | where:"issue_resolved='No'" | getValue: "count") > 0} ${#issues} ${rpt_issue_info_unresolved} ${/}${/}   I keep getting invalid expression... thanks! ... View more
