Hi everyone.
I am currently tasked with developing an automated workflow from Arc Pro to a Dashboard hosted on AGOL. In Pro, I have a symbolized map layer with about eight standalone tables. I add the map to the dashboard and use the standalone tables to create serial charts and indicators.
The issue I keep running into is that when I attempt to update my feature layer on AGOL, the layer and/or standalone tables will either duplicate or will not update entirely. I am using the cookie-cutter code provided by ESRI for updating web content, but I am not sure what I am missing.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
