How to publish a service from ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS server?

GabrielYarlequé — Wed, 26 Nov 2014 21:10:39 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to figure out how to publish a service to ArcGIS Server directly from ArcGIS Pro. I found out how to make the connection to the server and how to share my map as a webmap. So now I want to know if there is a way to publish the same map via ArcGIS Server.

Thanks a lot for your help!

I presume that it is not possible to share the map as a mapservice to ArcGIS server from ArcGIS Pro . For that we have to use the regular ArcMap Desktop product.

You are right Mahender. You cannot publish services directly to ArcGIS for Server using ArcGIS Pro. If you have Portal for ArcGIS, you can publish hosted web layers from ArcGIS Pro. You can also use ArcGIS Pro to publish hosted web layers to your ArcGIS Online organization. All sharing options are available on the Sharing tab.

Thanks for providing feedback! Actually, I heard that if you have a federated server, this is actually possible.

You can't publish directly to the federated server from ArcGIS Pro. That is, you can't create a publisher server connection directly to the federated server like you can in ArcMap. You can add a portal connection and publish hosted web layers/services (web tile layers and web feature layers) from ArcGIS Pro to the federated server that can host services.

agree, you need to create a portal connection in order to do that!

I just realized that when you connect to ArcGIS Server, the connection shows as a user connection, even though I used my arcgis server administrator credentials. Do you guys have any idea why? In ArcMap, if you want to connect to the server it gives you the options for user, publisher or administrator. Also, as a user in ArcGIS Pro, you are not able to delete services directly from the project pane. Thanks for your comments!

Hi Gabriel,

In ArcGIS Pro you can only make user connections to ArcGIS for Server or to a portal's federated server. User connections do not have privileges to manage services that are published to ArcGIS server or a portal's federated server. You will need to use ArcMap or Manager to do so. You may delete hosted services/web layers (those published to an ArcGIS organization or Portal for ArcGIS) directly from the Project pane in ArcGIS Pro. Click the Portal tab and right-click a web layer - you will see the delete option.

Joanne,

What does this mean for the traditional ArcGIS Services? Are these going to fade away?

We are struggling a bit at the moment as we need to publish Scene Services - which requires Pro - and hosted server - but all of our other data is shared via traditional services and ArcGIS Desktop...

Should we be looking at a mass migration from current approach to hosted services over the next year or two?

Will ArcGIS Pro ever have the capability to publish services directly to ArcGIS for Server?

Re: How to publish a service from ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS server?

JoanneParkinson — Mon, 04 Jan 2016 23:25:49 GMT

Hi Brian,

I contacted Philip Heede regarding your question. There are no plans to retire or deprecate ‘traditional’ (or non-hosted) services. The different kinds of services have very different use cases and will exist side by side for a long time to come.

Hi Michael,

I'm sorry. I can't answer your question at this point in time.

Brian Boulmay and Mahender Rajendran and Gabriel Yarlequé:

I would add to Joanne's reply, which is completely correct as of the current release, that you can see an evolution of this in the Pro 1.2 and ArcGIS 10.4 for Server releases scheduled for the upcoming months.

Pro 1.2 will be able to share maps and layers to ArcGIS for Server deployments using Portal for ArcGIS- or phrased with traditional Server terms: publish dynamic map services to Servers federated with Portal for ArcGIS. Please see the ArcGIS 10.4 pre-release is now available | ArcGIS Blog for more information including how to access the Pro 1.2 beta.

Cheers,

Philip

This is super confusing to me. Can someone in the know share insight and a road ahead strategy for us Arcmap map service creators?

Also, adding to my comment/question... At this time we see no business need in our org to use Portal but do and will use Server and AGOL. It seems to me that ArcGIS Pro will force Server users to implement Portal at some point.

Is that a fair stayement to make?

Hello, I'm exactly in the some case as Royce.. Is it planned to simply publish from arcgis pro to arcgis for server in the same way that arcgis desktop ?

in addition, if I understand correctly the previous posts, if I publish a tiled vector layer from arcgis pro to Portal, it is the arcgis online credits that are used and not the arcgis server capabilities ?

You are correct that at this point in time sharing a web layer from Pro, i.e. publishing a service, requires the use of a Portal for ArcGIS-based Web GIS. Technically, your ArcGIS Server site must be federated with Portal for ArcGIS.

Publishing a vector tile package to Portal for ArcGIS does not consume credits in any way. In that setup, the vector tile package becomes a vector tile layer served out entirely from your own infrastructure using the full ArcGIS for Server Web GIS stack: Portal for ArcGIS, ArcGIS Server (in the role of a hosting server), and ArcGIS Data Store.

If you publish a vector tile package to ArcGIS Online, it is served out from there. A small amount of storage credits are charged, but no consumption credits apply.

This seems to be the way ESRI is headed, tying together with a tight knot ArcGIS Server and Portal/AGOL. I'm very disappointed that this is their road ahead as it forces me to purchase products that I don't have a business use case for. I've used ArcMap and ArcGIS server for years, with no need for Portal/AGOL, and have been patiently waiting for the ability to publish 3D data. So now Pro can publish 3D data, and what do they do? Require you to go through Portal or ArcGIS online. I completely understand why using Portal/AGOL as means to organize/expose your ArcGIS Server services is beneficial, as exclusively using rest endpoints from ArcGIS Server can sometimes get complicated. But I also completely disagree with ESRI's business model here; users should have a choice, not be forced to use something they don't need or want.

Is it possible to host the service on your own ArcGIS Server / Data Store, but then publish it via ArcGIS Online rather than Portal for ArcGIS? Thus approximating the old method of hosting the data on your own infrastructure but publishing it on AGOL. Seems like the only solutions offered above are all or nothing: (host AND publish via Portal) OR (host AND publish via AGOL). What if you don't want to run Portal at all, or you just don't to force users (the public) to check your Portal AND ArcGIS Online to try to find content? Why force organizations to host content on AGOL just so it can be published there, while we've got AGS sitting right here? Alternate question: is it possible to integrate Portal-hosted content in AGOL so that AGOL is a single endpoint for users?
