Question regarding the "Update the organization URL" in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.4

[Gaius_Kuttappan]

With ArcGIS Enterprise version 11.4, the Update Organizational URL capability is introduced. I believe which enables to update the public facing URL changes in the organization.

To achieve this, first, we have to update the federation URLs for each GIS Server from Portal REST end (Org ID > Server > Update Server) then Portal URL from Portal REST (Home > Portal > Self > URL), correct? Referred to: Update the organization URL.

Also, does this update the URL for all the items on GIS Server (hosted and non-hosted) or do we need to manually update it for each item? Referred to:  /updateFederatedServerUrl: Update Federated Server URL.

Yes, that is the correct order and Sharing API tools, according to the documentation.

Also, does this update the URL for all the items on GIS Server (hosted and non-hosted) or do we need to manually update it for each item?

According to the help page, yes, the items related to the federated servers will have their URLs updated-

"When this operation is performed, the items on the federated server that used the previous URL are updated to use the new URL."

Thank you for your reply, @TonyContreras_Frisco_TX.

However, I am curious if there are any used case to refer and understand this. I know its too quick 😜

The documentation doesn't instruct you to use Org ID > Server > Update Server from the Sharing API. You update each federated server, and the portal from nearly the same interface, with the URL being either:

• https://<your_domain>/<webadaptorname>/sharing/rest
• https://<machine_name_or_localhost>:7443/arcgis/sharing/rest

Then you go to Home > Portals > Self > URLs. Here you use Update Federated Server URL for each server, and Update Portal URL for portal.

I did see the URL box in the path you indicated (Org ID > Server > Update Server), but I wouldn't mess with that unless the documentation clearly states so. I'm not sure if changing the URL there and changing the URL via Home > Portals > Self > URLs > Updated Federated Server URL do the same thing.
