Create layer view from ArcGIS Pro

JPIERRON — Fri, 21 May 2021 15:06:41 GMT

Hi,

I've been struggling with this all day.

I have created several feature layers from arcgis pro, and searching how to create views based on said feature layers, but can't find any way to do so.

I know i could create these views from arcgis online after publishing the corresponding feature layers, but as i'm aiming to apply different filters on the views than those i use on the feature layers, it would be nice to do it all directly from arcgis pro.

Is there a way to create a layer view based on a feature layer from arcgis pro i'm missing ?

Thanks

Make Feature Layer (Data Management)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

but not sure what you really need from your description

Do you mean that in ArcGIS Pro you want to consume the hosted feature layer and visualize a subset of those data? Definition query.

As far as I know, the only way to create a hosted feature layer view is only within ArcGIS Online, not within Pro.

@JPIERRON , Have you had a look at creating Query Layers?

Query layers are SQL queries stored in maps in ArcGIS Pro projects, however they only work with Enterprise Geodatabases.

Here are a few links to have a look at:
