@RhettZufelt, I see the issue now. We are talking about different data tables. As you show in the images you provided, the data table that opens when clicking on the feature layer in the visualization honors the field changes made for the pop-up. The data table I am talking about is the Data tab that appears on the main hosted feature layer page, which has a header with Overview, Data, Visualization, Usage, and Settings. In the past, changes made to thousands separator visibility and number of decimal places under the Visualization tab were also honored in the attribute table displayed using that top-level Data tab. Now it only changes what appears in the pop-up and the table opened under the Visualization tab. The process I use to create hosted feature layers is: Share a feature set from ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS Online as a new web layer. Open ArcGIS Online and create the metadata and change the field names under the Data tab to their aliases. Open the Visualization tab, add a new title to the pop-up and turn off the Esri created fields so the pop-up displays the aliases. For the fields, I open the fields option for the Visualization and make decimal place and thousands separator changes there. I see from your process that the thousands separators are on by default and you need to turn them off. For me, they are off by default. That said, I have tried turning them on, saving, turning them off, and then saving again. The disconnect between the Visualization tab table and the Data tab table is the same either way. The above process changes everything for the pop-ups and table associated with the Visualization, however, these settings are not honored in the table displayed using the top-level Data view. @RhettZufelt, I do appreciate your assistance, but I do not have the bandwidth to do any further troubleshooting to figure out what is going on. I assumed I was just dumb and was missing a simple setting. ... View more

It was just a regular feature layer. Has continued to do this for every new feature layer I have created. It is a bug. ... View more

This function is something that really needs to be added. The main issue I have regarding this has to do with data ethics. Entities should not be posting other's data on their own open data as it blurs who is responsible for the production and maintenance of the data. My agency has an open data site that we use to enable the public to download data we create. However, as we are a public agency, the public can request any publicly available data we use in our work. While we encourage requesters to get the data from the source, most just want whatever version we have because they do not want to do it for themselves. At least we try to get them to get the latest version from the actual data source, but we are not allowed to withhold publicly available data if it is requested. Given the above, we want to be able to make the third-party data available to our users (on a temporary or permanent depending on need), but not on our open data site as it is inappropriate to post someone else's data to our site. What this idea request would do is allow us to make data available to the public without pretending it is our data. Do not be intentionally dense about this. Even when we put links to the data source and clearly state in the metadata that someone else produced the data, the public still ends up thinking it is our data because it is on our open data site, and you know that happens. What is needed is simple; allow us to share data (temporary or permanent) in a way that enables the public to download data without an ArcGIS Online/Hub account so long as it is shared with the world. ...

As I stated in my post. I already tried what you suggested. As an example, I made on of my feature layers (https://mtc.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=64fc40fc2ce641dfb65b44087ba4cb73) public so you can see. When you open the Data tab, OSHPD Number has thousands separators in the values. When you click on a point in the Visualization tab, there are no thousands separators in the OSHPD Number on the pop-up as it was configured to not display them. In my experience, the default setting for pop-ups is to not display the thousands separators. I had to configure the pop-up to allow them for columns where I wanted the separators. Thinking it could be a bug, I turned on separators for the OSHPD Number column, saved it, opened the configuration again, turned off the separators, and saved again. As you saw, the formatting is still mismatched between the Data and Visualization tabs. ... View more

It should have been posted to the ArcGIS Online community, not ArcGIS Hub. I am currently posting this question to that community so you can remove this one. ... View more

Face palm. Just realized I posted this in the wrong community. I keep forgetting ArcGIS Hub and ArcGIS Online are not the same thing. I will post this question in the appropriate community. ... View more

Our agency ended up splitting in how to resolve the display issue with ArcGIS Online, but both of us moved away from an ESRI solution. Now we only use ArcGIS Online for a subset of our data. One group wrote up a custom app that only displays a subset of metadata, but allows them better formatting. I set up an internal, third-party metadata catalog (Geonetwork opensource) that stores and displays all metadata fields. While superior for the display of metadata, its reason for being, Geonetwork opensource is not user friendly to configure. Needless to say, neither option syncs with actual services, so there is an extra step when updating any data set. That said, because both of our efforts are independent, our catalogs can link to any data source, regardless of provider, with a public URL that people can download the data from. ... View more

This just happened to me as well. I am using ArcGIS Pro 2.6.1. The program crashed after I updated a feature class in a local file geodatabase (true local, not synced to a cloud location). I immediately went to reopen the project and got an error that it was saved using a newer version. I did not downgrade my ArcGIS Pro before trying to open again. ... View more

I am not familiar with ArcGIS Hub, but if it is similar to ArcGIS Online there is a site configuration setting where an administrator can enable metadata. Once metadata is enabled, the administrator would then choose the metadata style to use. After that, data owners can write full metadata for their feature services, including field definitions. The field definition tab, at least for ArcGIS Online, also has a sub-tab for entering field domain values and their definitions. ... View more

We have two feature services that have a separate data originator and metadata author contacts and only one contact displays in the metadata returned by ArcGIS Online. That said, I was able to track down one other feature service we have that also has a separate originator and author and both are returned in the metadata. There are no special characters or formatting in the one as opposed to the other so do not know what could be causing it. So it does appear the metadata function is working as intended, but buggy, so I will leave it as is and move on. ... View more
