Thanks @RichardHowe - I'll look at this more closely as an alternative solution.  ... View more

Agree. Finding that there are legacy files that had a delete protection assigned to them (old StoryMap Tour templates), but through the interface, there's now way to bulk disable the delete protection.  ... View more

For our higher education institution we have a desire to have more control over who we allow to take licenses offline as well! We want to support as many users as possible, but we don't want to open it up to all users; only the ones who really need it and and understand the implications of taking an ArcGIS Pro license offline (e.g. if your have a license checked out, you cannot sign into another ArcGIS Pro on another computer. You must check it in first). We used to support offline licenses through Single-Use and Concurrent-Use licenses, but those are going away/gone so there is currently no easy way to allow a subset of users permission to take a licenses out into the field/ship/offline. Because we don't want to enable offline licensing for our entire campus, we are currently exploring the following options as a way to get around enabling access to all: Working with the user to "flip' the switch' to allow offline licenses for a few minutes, and then turning it off after the user confirms they have an offline license. However this can create complications for trying to check licenses back in. Creating a new local account for a member or a computer lab on a ship, and giving them access to an offline license in the same manner above.  Would it be possible to support "offline licensing" as a permission that could be assigned to a Role? This would mean an administrator could leverage a Role to support offline licensing to a subset of users.  Having some sort of control over offline licensing besides all or none is extremely desirable.  ...

We recently setup a notebook to auto reallocate credits to university users who have suddenly used all their credits. I would like to customize the message that goes out to the user and admins stating that "their account should be reallocated with credits within 15 minutes". However at this time, I'm unable to customize that message so I'm still receiving a number of emails from patrons asking to have additional credits. If I could customize the automatic message from Esri, the end-user would know right away that they will have additional credits in 15 minutes. This will reduce their stress they encounter when working on an assignment or project.  ... View more

As another ArcGIS Online organization with 4,000+ users, we are rapidly encroaching our feature storage limit (79%). In addition to seeing credit by user on the member user management, it would also be nice to set those limits for both feature storage or image storage (file storage).  Another thing I'd like to add to storage quotas is actually displaying the storage usage of users in the member management window. Or at least enable this as a toggle to turn on or off. Yes, I can get some of those values from the Organizational Items report and do pivot tables, but it would be great to quickly access who are my largest storage users.  ... View more

Thanks @PeterKnoop! I'll pass this information along. Yes, it's a 1-band raster of lines that they want digitized.  ... View more

@BrianBaldwin - I had another one to add to this list--ArcScan. I have a student who needs to do large scale digitization of raster data to vector data. I found something that led me to ArcScan . It's an extension in ArcMap, but in other forums, it looks like there hasn't been any movement to include ArcScan in Pro.  ... View more

This would be a great addition to support those students who are asked to create StoryMaps as a final project. The students have no/little GIS experience and won't necessarily use the ArcGIS Online side of things. This places the task of creating groups either on the professors or someone else to help create a group and set it up. Yes, the students can do so, but if they could create a group and identity the group members directly from the ArcGIS StoryMaps site, it would make using and sharing StoryMaps with others easier for all involved.  ...

One functionality that I have someone looking for in ArcGIS Pro is the integration to a CAD surface modeler. Desktop has a very old plugin that exports directly 3D supported files to sketchup. It's a plugin that was created for version 9.X but has been working since then. It gives you the option to export any vector and raster data to a sketchup file with an option to add base height and extrusion from table fields. ... View more

Agree! This sometimes confuses many users who just want the export. They don't need/want another item in their AGO content.  ... View more

We are seeing this error recently with several classes on our campus. We are using ArcGIS Pro 2.9.3 on a .net 4.000 framework. They are experiencing this when trying to export a layout (pdf,jpeg) to a network storage drive. File paths have been updated to remove all spaces. They aren't using raster data. Their projects are now corrupted. Has anyone else experienced this recently? ... View more

Thanks @KoryKramer . Here are some additional thoughts to good questions.  1. The software is installed on both campus controlled lab machines and personal laptops. For the campus based machines, we do NOT currently block notifications. Sometimes it is useful to know that there is an update, regardless if you can update or not. Most instructors can clarify with their students what version they should be using for class. Of course there will always be those who don't listen and still upgrade, but that's on them.  2. I agree with @PatIampietro and @Willen that the idea would be able to allow users to select what supported version they want to download. Again, more on making other versions available rather than just the latest and one version back. While we as a campus encourage users to be on a particular version, we still have some researchers who are on a particular version due to certain tools and others. For example we are in a trial with ArcGIS Indoors, and the ELT tool would not work with the latest versions of ArcGIS Pro. It would only work with ArcGIS Pro 2.7 (Esri is aware of the incompatibility with the ETL tools and Pro). So we had to go in and find that version and make it available to students. It would have been great to just tell the students to go and download that version from AGO.  3. I don't think I would need to cap the number of versions of ArcGIS Pro per student. We have students who are enrolled in classes and then many other students and researchers who are using the software outside of the class. I would like to enable the SSO we have setup for our AGO to say, if you are affiliate with our AGO and you would like to download the software go here. Currently I'm still having to be very involved in providing access to earlier versions of software in addition to providing technical support on the use of the software. I would just want the option to make the software available and enable the user to select what version to download based on their research needs or class instructions. It would be up to the campuses or Orgs to specify to their users what version their campus is using.  With this last line stated about providing guidance to their users/members on what version they should download, it seems like it would be extra work to build in a function that would add say an * next to the "this Org recommends this version". Again, I would look at going with a simple implementation of just making other supported versions of ArcGIS Pro available for download from the AGO interface.  ... View more
