Scheduling model is producing a different result than running manually (Select by location step)

RobinG1 — Thu, 23 May 2024 23:20:20 GMT

I am trying to build a model that runs on a schedule for updating a hosted feature service buffer layer in ArcGIS Online.

The model essentially deletes rows (precondition) within the hosted feature service then selects parcels from a point layer (select layer by location) and runs a buffer on the intersecting parcels. Then it appends back to the hosted feature service with the updated buffers.

When I run the model in modelbuilder it works fine; but when I schedule it to run, it looks like there is some kind of issue with the select layer by location step b/c the end result buffers all parcels instead of just the parcels that intersect the points layer. Any ideas?

Is there a reason why the schedule would produce a different result than running the model in modelbuilder? I'd like this model to run daily, so having to manually run it is less than ideal.

Result from running the model manually in modelbuilder

Any help is appreciated!!!

Ok, I have this working now. It looks like the enterprise parcels layer was what the select by location was having difficulties with (with respect to the scheduler). I added an additional step that exported the parcels to a new feature class and removed the attributes from it and the model appears to be working now on a schedule!
