Create Replica in AGOL -shape

[Anonymous User]

Since the Last release off Arcgis Online (20160914)  we have been unable to create a replica from a Feature -layer. We can not create shapefiles - but we can create FileGeodatabase.

Doesn´t AGOL support the creation of replicas in the format of .shp any longer or is it a bug that you plan to fix?

Look at the attach image! It worked yesterday.

Hello,

I'm not sure if you have been contacted by support yet, but I have an update on the particular issue. The development team has identified this as a bug and will address the issue tomorrow night (Pacific Time).

It works! Thanks for a fast response - we didn´t needed to do expensive workarounds.

Hi,

We are seeing issues with create replica in shape format. We are trying to get features within a polygon as shapefile. It does not work when a polygon geometry is supplied while creating the replica. It returns a zip file containing the shapefile, but the shapefile always has zero features. We have confirmed that the polygon contains features from the layer, but it always returns 0 features in the zipfile. 

It works well when filegdb is set as the output format and we are able to see only features within the polygon. 

If we do not provide the polygon geometry, then it works and downloads the complete dataset as shapefile. But we are looking for downloading only within specified polygon geometries.

Hi Anand,

I recommend contacting technical support to look into this issue further. Are you specifically trying to extract the data?

This tool is available with the output of a shapefile. You can also clip the features returned to a specific polygon:

Kelly, thanks for your response. 

I was just trying to assess if this behavior is already a known issue from the community before we contact tech support. Other community members facing a similar issue may also benefit from this before they go through the support process. 

We are building an appbuilder widget and do not wish to include a dependency on a geoprocessing service which complicates the deployment. So the extract data task is not an option for us.
