I have a Portal organization, a primary ArcGIS Online organization, and an ArcGIS Online HUB Premium organization, all of which I'm an administrator of. There's a Partnered Collaboration between the main AGO and the HUB organization that appears to work and share access to data back and forth successfully. We also have set up a Distributed Collaboration between our main AGO org and our Portal org that appears to work successfully. I'm running into issues when I try and share something all the way through from the HUB site to AGO and then to the Portal and back.
In this particular case, I have a Survey123 with a hosted Feature layer in the HUB organization. I have shared that to a partnered collaboration group and can access that from the main AGO group. I have tested and am successfully able to see and even edit records in the hosted Feature layer from both the HUB and main AGO org.
I then created a workspace in the Portal <> main AGO org's Distributed Collaboration set to COPY with 2 way sync. It successfully created a copy of the Feature layer hosted in the Portal.
If I make edits to features in the HUB copy of the layer from either the HUB org or the main AGO org users, I can sync the Distributed Collaboration and those edits are copied successfully into the Portal copy.
If I make any edits with any Portal users to the Portal copy though, the Distributed Collaboration fails to sync those edits through back to the HUB copy. When I inspect the Distributed Collaboration in Portal, it shows the error:
I've found a few old ESRI Community posts such as https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/sharing-hosted-feature-layer-from-partnered/m-... and https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/agol-gt-portal-distributed-syncs-br..., both from 2021, that seem to have related issues and say it was a known product limitation at the time, but seems to suggest that was supposed to be fixed in future releases. Well, now that it's 2025 and I'm clearly not the only one with multiple AGO organizations that wants to share content from each of them to a Portal, I'm hoping there's either a fix for this or a known work-round I'm not finding.
Any recommendations would be appreciated.
