HI Steven, Check out the append function. I think this will accomplish what you are looking to do, without  needing to overwrite the entire service. Check out this blog for more details. https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-online/data-management/whats-new-with-hosted-feature-layers-updating-data-gets-more-flexible-with-append/ -Kelly ...

Hi Marko, Are you trying to update the vector tile layer from the vector tile package or change the service url of an existing vector tile layer?  The rest endpoint mentioned above will not update an item with a new vector tile package.  Top update a vector tile layer, I would recommend publishing a new layer, and then using the replace logic to swap out the actual url. I believe that you need to be at Enterprise v. 10.6, but you could check to see if the endpoint is available in 10.5.1 -Kelly ... View more

Thanks for the feedback Brian, Currently credit purchase information isn't trackable through the status dashboard. I'll add this to our internal tracking for the status page, but also recommend adding an Idea about this. Would you want to view this information as an administrator of the organization or as a user? Thanks, Kelly  ... View more

HI Ryan, In order to use this workflow, the feature layer must be public. For testing purposes you can append a token to the image url, but this has security implications and requires updating of the token if it were to be used as a production workflow. For now, I would only recommend following this workflow with public layers. -Kelly ... View more

Thanks for the information Nathan. Would collaboration work for your publishing workflow? I'm wondering if this will be workable to keep your internal and ArcGIS Online data synchronized at a regular interval? You would need to have ArcGIS Enterprise (10.5.1 or above) installed in order to use distributed collaboration. With distributed collaboration, updates from services can be copied to either ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise depending on your configuration. https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-enterprise/sharing-collaboration/five-ways-to-use-distributed-collaboration-to-share-your-data/ I think there are some details to discuss about how you would then use the copied data in your workflows like where do you create the view (source or recipient)? -Kelly ...

Thanks for the feedback Nathan, I'll reply on the idea also, but would ArcGIS Enterprise - Online Collaboration work for you? Collaboration keeps data that is hosted in ArcGIS Enterprise (often SDE) and pushes the deltas to ArcGIS Online. I think there are still some details to work through with how you would create views from there or if you would create them first, but it would be great to talk through this in more detail. Let us know when you have some time available and lets set up a time to discuss at UC. https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-enterprise/sharing-collaboration/whats-new-in-arcgis-enterprise-10-7-sharing-hosted-feature-layer-views-using-collaboration/ https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-enterprise/sharing-collaboration/five-ways-to-use-distributed-collaboration-to-share-your-data/ -Kelly ...

Hi Michael, Thanks for your feedback.  The functionality to overwrite source layers with existing view layers is something that was purposefully designed to prevent data publishers from potentially corrupting existing services and their related views. The overwrite function allows you to completely change the data structure and data with a simple action, for this reason we have some logic to prevent this in certain cases. Overwrite removes all of the data and publishes new data (objectIds, globalIDs, field changes, layer changes, etc.) to the same service name with the same item ID. As there is a complete change of data and potentially schema protections were put in place to ensure it wouldn't be possible to potentially affect dependent layers. The same concept applies to feature layers with sync enabled. If a layer is published and a user of the layer creates an offline copy, overwriting the data will remove all of the existing data and add new data, making it impossible to synchronize the data. For these reasons, we block the ability to overwrite such layers from ArcGIS Pro. There are some scenarios in which we could look into how to address this, such as if the schema is not changing, etc. Logging your specific use case on ideas helps the product team to understand the specific workflow that you are trying to accomplish. The votes and comments on Ideas are incredibly helpful to the product team as it gives us the birds eye view of issues that are affecting are users and in many cases insight into specific workflows. Supporting an idea also allows the product team to understand who this idea is important to. If an idea has support and we begin the design phase of a related project, we instantly have a pool of customers to contact and clarify use cases. Receiving votes on an idea helps us to prioritize issues that are affecting many people, but the content and access to our customers who are actively providing feedback through ideas is invaluable. That being said, ideas and geonet are not the only way that we collect feedback for products at Esri, so if there is a topic or specific workflow that you want to discuss with us, there are a few options to get in contact. If you are attending a conference, please come by the ArcGIS Online area and talk to us about the specific issue. If you aren't attending any conferences and want to have a product conversation, get in contact with your account team and request to provide feedback to the product team (if it's ArcGIS Online, feel free to send me a message directly). If you are running into a bug or have something that you want to track, get in contact with support. Both bugs and enhancements are track-able and log-able through a support case: https://support.esri.com/en/contact-tech-support If you are looking for an informal conversation or discussion with others who may run into similar issues, I recommend submitting ideas or starting a conversation on Geonet, just like you did here.  Nathan Frazer‌, if you are looking to update your existing source data, try taking a look at the append workflow. I think this will accomplish what you need: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-online/data-management/whats-new-with-hosted-feature-layers-updating-data-gets-more-flexible-with-append/ Please let us know if you would like to connect to discuss your specific use cases so that we can find out more about how we can help keep your data up to date, without potentially affecting related views. -Kelly ...

In order to have members collaborate on a single item like a web map, you need to create a group with item update capabilities. Here is a blog that describes this workflow: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/sharing-collaboration/sharing-collaboration/enable-colleagues-to-update-your-maps-and-apps/ -Kelly ...

HI Evan, You can change this by updating the layer name and saving it in the web map or on the layer item: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/manage-data/item-details.htm#ESRI_SECTION2_C1378B44CC614A80BEA5149A5F1D5194 https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/create-maps/organize-layers.htm Feel free to share your web ma if this doesn't resolve the issue. -Kelly ...

HI, Have you published the layers to ArcGIS Online? If so, there isn't sub headings. Would renaming the layers in the table of contents get you up and running? -Kelly ... View more

Hi Isaiah, There are some limitations to the responsiveness of web maps when you modify the underlying layer structure. Are you publishing to ArcGIS Server or ArcGIS Online? Is it possible to publish a brand new layer instead of adding it to an existing service? -Kelly  ... View more

Hi Joe, I just ran through a similar workflow and am not experiencing any issues where the sharing privileges of both the primary layer and view layer are different. Can you verify that you are calculating the field on the public layer? I would also suggest getting in touch with Tech Support. ... View more
