Publish feature layer without domain descriptions

BobBoutiette — Fri, 05 Aug 2022 15:23:14 GMT

I am using ArcPro 3.0 to publish a feature layer from an enterprise geodatabase. Is there a way to turn off the domain descriptions before publishing? I trying to end up with the published layer only having the domain code in the table and not description. I'm trying to do this without messing with the schema of the layer.

Publish this Not this

One easy idea that comes to mind is convert the gdb feature class to a shapefile as shapefiles do not have subtypes or domains. Then share the shapefile as a web feature layer.

Not sure if this would work but worth a shot - open the attribute table for the feature class in mind, click the options button (far right) and uncheck the "show domains and subtype description", then share as a web feature layer. What is the result?

You can calculate that to a new field before publishing using Arcade and DomainName function.

DomainName($feature, theField)

Thanks for the input, but I am trying to remain in the geodatabase arena.

This "new" forum format, can't tell which post you are replying to.

What is it that would keep you from remaining in the geodatabase arena?
