my feature class is not updated after adding a point in arcgis online

[tomwang1]

Hi,

I created a Feature Service on our arcgis online account. The Feature Service is using a point feature class from our sql sde database.

I login to our arcgis account and did a editing. a new point added into the Feature Service. But I checked my feature class in our database and found there is not a new point be added. Any idea?

Thanks,

Tom

Hi Tom,

Once you are hosting a service in ArcGIS Online, it gets stored in the Amazon cloud of the ArcGIS Online. Thus, there is no sync between the service and Geodatabase. All edits are limited to the service only. However, you may be able to download it shapefile and replace it in the SDE Geodatabase.

However, if you have an ArcGIS Server with a public IP, you could create a Feature service in it, open it in ArcGIS.com (ArcGIS Online) and edit it. All edits will be reflected in the geodatabase, as the Services in ArcGIS Server is linked to the geodatabase.

Hope it helps!!!
