Federated ArcGIS Server shows not Edit Capability

AbdelrahmanAbdelrazek — Thu, 17 Dec 2020 13:05:30 GMT

Hello,

We have a federated ArcGIS server 10.7. After registering a user managed DB (Oracle) and publishing a feature service we found that (Edit-Update-Delete) are not listed under operation allowed section in ArcGIS Server as shown in the attached picture.

- We tried publishing this feature service directly to Portal and also tried doing so though ArcGIS server and we are Getting the same behaviour in both.

I would appreciate any suggestions about this.

Thanks in advance.

Has the registered DB connection in the Data Stores tab got those privileges?

It also looks like you're looking at the Map Service properties 'mapping', have you published it with feature access capabilities? Click on the Feature Access box within the capabilities tab -> Select and Configure capabilities.

Is the Oracle DB a geodatabase or just a DB with spatial data (SDO geometry)?

Thanks @DavidPike for your response.

The DB connection has does those privileges.

I published the service with feature access capabilitiess.

It is even shown on the manager that Feature access is enabled as shown in the attached picture.

Thanks @George_Thompson for your response.

This is DB with spatial data (SDO geometry)

Cool, if you click on where it says 'feature access' it will show you the properties, at the moment you're just seeing the map image service properties.

Great, I can see the capabilities now......but the question is why I'm not able to see that this feature layer is editable in Portal in the setting section, also when I show the layer on the map, I can see the edit option but it says "Feature creation is disabled for all layers"

Do you have any suggestion ?

Here is some information to help with this: https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/server/latest/publish-services/windows/prepare-data-for-feature-services.htm in terms of feature services and capabilities and preparation.

That is due to the fact that it was not published as a feature service with the edit capabilities and that those capabilities are managed at the server not the portal level; https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/sharing/overview/configure-web-feature-layer.htm

Thanks so much @DavidPike and @George_Thompson for your response.
This main problem is that I was looking for the Editing options in the setting tap on Portal and also the "Create view layer" and couldn't find them.

And that is why I thought editing not enables. But after checking the link @George_Thompson provided I found that those options won't be shown if the data source is a user managed DB. But the feature layer is published and has whatever capabilities selected while publishing the service.

Thanks agian!
