Hi Carmie, You can invite users outside of your organisation to join a specific group. Just as you would invite users within your organisation but untick the box that says "Only search for members in your organisation". Their profile will need to be public for you to be able to search for them: under my profile it needs to say Who can see your profile? Everyone (public) As I understand it, the admin or Org B will then be able to view all the contents within the group of Org A, and contribute as a normal user. We use this method for exactly the same reason you suggest. Inviting stakeholders to view a specific subset of our data. Hope this helps, Andy

Hi, I don't know if this is possible, but I'm creating a simple map of points and embedding it in a website. One of the attributes contains a link to a website which I would like to open in the same tab. Currently it opens in a new tab. I've tried using HTML to do this, with the following: <a target="_parent" href="http://www.google.com">Click</a> But it still continues to open in a new tab, and inspecting the element shows that it defaults back to target="_blank". Is there something else I could use? Or is this an underlying rule that can't be changed? Thanks in advance Andy

For anyone else having this problem, it is because I had '.' in the title of items and services. This meant that the services didn't work properly and couldn't be deleted. Thanks to Andrew from esri for helping to find the problem and for deleting my services for me!

Hi, Has anyone else had problems deleting items from My Content. I've uploaded several tile packages, and tried to produce services from them. The services don't work. There is an item in my content, but it can't be added to a map or loaded. Now I can't delete these broken services. I can delete the original tile package, but not the service. I've worked out that the reason it wasn't creating the tile services correctly is because there was a period in the title (eg. "version3.2") is this the reason it is also not deleting them? Is this a known problem? Any known fixes? My content is slowly filling up with broken services. Is there another way of deleting them or is my only option to hide them in a folder?! Thanks, Andy

Hi Andrew, When is 10.2.1 coming out? Really need this feature! Many thanks, Andy

Hi, I've been trying to use "overwrite an existing service" to update a service in AGOL from Desktop 10.2. I keep getting errors for this, mainly: Error001566: Service overwrite error:failed to delete service Error: code:400, Item does not exist or is inaccessible, Bad syntax in request Running the overwrite tool does delete my feature service from my contents though. After looking around the forums, I'm still at a loss, my Feature Service is in my 'Root' folder, as some posts suggested it needs to be there. Any workarounds would be gratefully received! I'm trying to overwrite a service in this way so that users don't get affected by changing service URLs etc. Is this possible? Thanks, Andy

Thanks Jeff for your example. I was hoping to do this without using a proxy, do you know if this is possible? Andy

Hi, I've read quite a lot on this subject, but seem to have little success in making it work. Basically I'm trying to write a simple JavaScript application that automatically loads a secure AGOL webmap. I want to hardcode the credentials into the application so the user doesn't have to login, as users have to login to where the app will be stored anyway. I can't find any sample code that does this, and being a JavaScript beginner I'm going around in circles looking at the various posts on OAuth, identity manager and proxy's. If anyone has any examples or ideas that they can share, I would be eternally grateful! Many Thanks, Andy

Hi all, Does anyone know if it's possible to join tables in AGOL? Basically I need a location to have several start and end time/date fields as described here: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#/Temporal_data_in_separate_tables/005z0000001w000000/ Many thanks, Andy

Hi Mike, I thought that would be the answer, guess I'll have to do it the manual way. Do you know if the GitHub sample tool will be updated anytime soon? Cheers, Andy

Hi, thanks for the tip, quite useful for copying maps. However it doesn't work for Feature Services, and copied tiles don't load once copied......is there any other way of moving services between organisations? Andy

Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to transfer data from one organisation to another. I thought this could be done by changing the data owner, but I found that it's not possible to be a member of two organisations with the same login. Any ideas?? Thanks, Andy

I'm having problems trying to load a map that has a KML layer in it. Is KML supported in the Dashboard? It doesn't appear in the Data layers list, and when I try to load the map it crashes. I've tried with several different KML layers, all with the same result. Many thanks, Andy
