Error when updating view layer "the view layer could not be updated try again later"

[HeatherBell]

Hello, 

I have configured a number of web apps and an Esri Hub to use a view layer of a community sourced editable hosted feature layer. However, now when I am trying to update the fields which are shown on a public view under visualisation settings I get the error: "the view layer could not be updated try again later".

It would take a significant amount of time to redirect all of the apps/maps/dashboard which depend on this view, and also going forward I can't keep republishing the view layer again because of this reason but also because other users may embed it in thier own apps.  

Does anyone have a solution for this error? I'm about to launch our hub which uses this layer, and I want to make sure that everything is working properly before doing this. 

Thank you, 

Heather.

Here with the same issue.

I am getting the same error when trying to update my hosted feature layer view. My leading theory is related to how I update my layer; see here. Could that be your issue?
