Hi everyone,

I've been experiencing an issue with publishing layers to ArcGIS Online over the past two days, and I wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing something similar. 

Specifically, I keep getting a generic error message when trying to publish layers to ArcGIS Online. The message simply states:

Publishing web layer failed (AGO)

Publishing tool execution failed

Failed to publish web layer 

This has been occurring when trying to publish layers from ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS Online, but also while trying to publish layers from ArcGIS Online alone. I've attempted to upload increasingly simple layers as a means of troubleshooting the issue, and at this point I cannot even create a new blank layer in ArcGIS Online without it failing. 

I've attempted using multiple different accounts, each of which have administrative privileges. I've attempted using different devices. I've attempted creating a new project in ArcGIS Pro, as well as logging in and out, clearing my cache, etc. with no success. 

Does anyone have any suggestions for addressing this?

Have you tested without the admin privileges. Maybe just publisher?

@KirkMason 

What is the format of the data you are trying to publish?

Do you have multiple spaces in the filename/path/file geodatabase/special characters?

Can you try to: Create a new file geodatabase in the same ArcPro project without any spaces in the name and export out the features from the default geodatabase to the new fgdb. Publish the web layers.
