Do you have any Python API scripts that perform inventory or maintenance operations on your Portal? I've noticed that, for example, digging into the layers of a web map with the API for Python will count as a view. ... View more

I tried the whole process again with a built-in user on both the source and destination Portal orgs and the clone items operation is working now! The Esri Support AI Chatbot mentioned BUG-000135084 and suggested it. ... View more

It's easy to click on the layer when you don't mean to and "unselect" it, making the properties pane on the right become disabled. Ensure you left click on the layer in the Layers list so there's a blue bar on the left of it, indicating it is selected. Also, make sure you aren't selecting a group layer, those might have different properties available. ... View more

Same here. I'm on Pro 3.5.4 connecting to Portal on 11.5 trying clone items from our test Portal to our prod Portal. I've tried connecting as a built-in user and with SSO. I also tried changing the sharing of the item and tried with different items. You do not have permissions to access this resource or perform this operation. (Error Code: 403) ... View more

@DETCOG_GIS ...you can also just change the basemap's projection and then access the geometry directly without any further manipulation.  I agree, this might work. However, there are some artifacts in my experience doing this. I noticed that all selection highlights (including when the pop-up is displayed) are visually/spatially distorted compared to the displayed geometry and it looks really confusing for users. ...

Copilot confirmed by citing some of my Community posts This is hilarious. I've occasionally stumbled across my own Esri Community posts when manually searching for answers and it always makes me chuckle. ... View more

This was as entertaining as it was interesting! Thanks for the fun write up. I was thinking you're becoming the John Nelson of the Esri Community, then I scrolled down and saw him being punched out! haha Maybe you should start a YouTube vlog and really take over the world. ... View more

I can't wait to see the crowd's reaction when someone reads this in the "what's new with Python" portion of the opening plenary session at the Dev & Tech Summit next year. Impactful new ArcPy features always get the best reactions! ... View more

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this discussion. I was able to get the function from @MDB_GIS working in ArcGIS Online. I had been testing in a web map that used a basemap in state plane, but I could never get the calculations to come out right. I finally started over with a new web map, adding the basemap and layer services again and then it worked! I guess something from the other web map was still holding on to Web Mercator somehow. ...

Interesting. I had only been testing in ArcGIS Online. In ArcGIS Pro, the calculation (with ft_to_m = 0.3048) is correct. Has anyone else tried this in ArcGIS Online? Here's a comparison of what I'm seeing between the two apps (at the same location): ArcGIS Pro: -111.8669267268508, 33.31052991092958 ArcGIS Online: -154.5911295109528, 33.42959248309001 ...

@MDB_GIS, I'm attempting to use your code with NAD83 HARN / Arizona Central ft (EPSG WKID 2868), but the lon, lat values are still slightly off (mostly the longitude). Here's the parameters I changed. Can you tell where I'm going wrong? AI was no help for me on this one. // Projection parameters from EPSG:2868 var a = 6378137.0; // semimajor axis (meters) var inv_f = 298.257222101; // inverse flattening var f = 1 / inv_f; var e2 = 2 * f - f * f; // eccentricity squared var k0 = 0.9999; // scale factor var lon0 = -111.9166666666667; // central meridian (deg) var lat0 = 31.0; // latitude of origin (deg) var falseE_ft = 700000; // false easting (Intl Ft) var falseN_ft = 0.0; // false northing (Intl Ft) var ft_to_m = 0.3048006096012192; // US survey foot -> meter   ...
