Hi Rickey, In order to create a required field, your feature service will need to have fields where nullable is set to false. You can set fields to be required before publishing your data in ArcMap and ArcGIS Pro. Let us know how you are publishing your feature service if you need help setting this value. -Kelly ...

Hello Tom, To answer the question, yes, you will need to re-add the dataset after the schema is updated. Below is some information about how the web map interacts with layers, which should help to understand why the layer needs to be re-added when you modify the schema and where you should fix the layer. When you create a web map, it retrieves the layer information based on the schema set in the web map or the layer in ArcGIS Online. You can view how your web map is referring to your data layer by viewing the underlying data use a rest call : Example: http://www.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/20ceb44bfabf452bbf717ae9fa596724/data?f=pjson Looking at the response, you will be able to see how your service is referred to as an operational layer in the web map. Notice how the web map refers to your layer including the item ID for the hosted feature service. When the web map refers to a layer using the itemID, it will apply any styling and pop-up information from the saved item. If we take a look at the layer data, http://www.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/d3a177a5e41642379a1fb4100e756b2a/data?f=pjson you will see the schema of the feature service data under pop up info. If you then modify your schema (I added a new field called yummy) through the feature service admin, the layer item won't know that you have updated the feature service. If you modify the schema through ArcGIS Online, the application will update the layer information automatically, but if you are modifying the service through the Feature service admin, then you will need to consider how to get these updates into your webmap. In my use case, if you open the layer in a new web map, select configure pop ups, make the Rating field visible and select save layer, the new field will become visible in other web maps. If you re-add the layer directly to the web map, the new field will also be visible as it will be referenced differently. https://services.arcgis.com/6tVsHR2ERRUR1RFd/ArcGIS/rest/services/DinersDriveTime/FeatureServer/0​ How did you modify the layer? -Kelly ...

Hi David, Network Analysis layers cannot be hosted on ArcGIS Online currently. For more information about supported hosted layer types, read this documentation. If you have your own ArcGIS Server, you can add your Network analysis service to your Organization to be used. If this functionaity is something that you would like to be considered to be implemented in the future, please promote the following idea and add details about your desired workflow in the comments: ArcGIS Idea - ArcGIS Online Hosted Locators -Kelly ...

Hi Gavin, The feature service size is related to the amount of data contained in your feature class. Even if publishing from a zipped format, the data will be extracted when it is published as a hosted feature service. If you are looking to reduce the storage size, try investigating if you can reduce the size of the feature class (data). Is there any unneeded attribute data that is being published? How detailed is the geometry in your feature service? If the geometry can be simplified (depending on your needs), it may reduce the overall size. -Kelly ... View more
