Please share your experiences implementing Collaboration between your AGOL and on-premise Portal.
Our Enterprise GIS team is interested in setting up Collaboration, but given our past experiences getting new ESRI products or features up and running seamlessly, we have our hesitations that it will work out as easy as it was demo'd at the ESRI UC or that it could be as simple as checking a box. Since once Collaboration is setup it cannot be undone, we therefore would appreciate hearing from the community on their experiences getting Collaboration up and running.
Skyler Dewey Brandon Longenberger John Reese We have begun looking into this also, and have had our hesitations as well. Currently we set up a test collaboration between our enterprise portal and our ArcGIS Online Organization. It is a one way distributed collaboration and it is using the As copies setting. We found this help page that answered our questions pertaining to schema changes. We performed the following test and it worked:
We want to test further to see if the middle synchronize of the collaboration needs to happen, and we also have future testing planned to see if this workflow will accommodate data from SDE GDBs. Let's keep sharing our adventures so we can figure this our together. Thank you for everything and have a delightful day.
Sincerely,
Joe Guzi and Skyler Dewey Brandon Longenberger John Reese
