Hi, I'm trying to figure out the best way to share multipatch buildings in a 3D scene in AGO.

so far, we've shared our buildings in a scene layer package, which we've published as a hosted scene layer in AGO. it's easy to share static data in this way, but we have a multipatch layer that changes frequently (new buildings are added often).

How do we update the data in a scene layer? Is there another way besides creating a new scene layer package, uploading it to AGO, and then sharing it as a new hosted scene layer?

Do hosted services always have to be based on data that is uploaded to AGO, or can they connect to databases, like services on an arc GIS server?

Hi,

Did anyone get any solution for this?

We are also trying to perform something similar, but in Enterprise portal. Our multipatch scene layers are going through frequent updates. I have published hosted scene layers associated with non-hosted feature layers. Now each time the database get updated, the non-hosted feature layers get updated automatically, but we need to perform manual cache rebuild to reflect the changes in scene layer. Now our goal is to automate the enter workflow.

Any suggestion on this regard would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Trina
