I think this article explains URL encoding better than I can... Percent-encoding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "When a character from the reserved set (a "reserved character") has special meaning (a "reserved purpose") in a certain context, and a URI scheme says that it is necessary to use that character for some other purpose, then the character must be percent-encoded." Basically you encode reserved characters when they can be interpreted in the wrong context. I am by no means an expert in this area, but hopefully this example is correct and will make sense... Suppose the Center parameter required the use of ampersand before the coordinate value and didn't require a comma to separate (because the ampersand worked to separate). You might form the center parameter like this. Center=&20&50 However, since ampersand is a reserved character that indicates a parameter on the URL, in order for the coordinates to be passed on and not interpreted as URL parameters, you'd need to encode it Center=%2620%2650 where the %26 is the URL encoding of ampersand. The article does say that where there isn't any confusion over context, you don't necessarily have to encode the character. But I'd say do it as a general rule... ... View more

Sorry, I don't really have the ability to tell you why you are seeing what you are. How are you generating the buffer?  Are you querying features from the service? From your screenshot, it looks like you have over 10,000 blocks. Are you executing a query to the server to get those features? If so, you may be experiencing timeouts. The server probably can't handle the load. Thanks, Mike ... View more

GIS Support​ I was able to add your service: "http://maps.six.nsw.gov.au/arcgis/rest/services/public/NSW_Imagery/MapServer" as an item to ArcGIS Online and Portal for ArcGIS. Is it possible your organization is configured with SSL enabled (https)?  In my testing, I was not able to add the service because it gets blocked by the browser as an insecure site. Your service would need to support SSL. Mike ... View more

It seems you are trying to supply your proxy credentials. The only credentials that are supported are ArcGIS Server (Token based). Mike ... View more

S Garg​ First, I don't write much code, so this is my best guess... The ability to export is part of the REST API. I believe that you can make REST calls through Python. Thus, it seems possible to automate this process. Keep in mind that the API will create an item in ArcGIS Online that is a ZIP file of the file geodatabase. I believe this is the correct API reference. ArcGIS REST API Mike ... View more

This is the implementation of the capability I mentioned in January. Unfortunately, it doesn't go as far as you want, or I was originally thinking. It addresses a 311 style of application, where the public can provide input (anyone can edit), but they can only add features. A data curator (someone with the Edit with full control privilege) could then go in and process any feedback from the public. The reason we changed our thinking about this privilege--and thus reduced its scope--is that we felt it granted too much control to members of this role across *all* hosted feature layers in an organization. It would have allowed anyone with this privilege to edit any hosted feature layer in the organization, even if it had editing disabled. We are aware that this is a big issue for people and are working on different ways to solve this problem. Thank you for your continued patience. Mike ... View more

If you are an administrator of your organization, you'll see the privileges under Edit Settings>Roles. You can assign the Edit with full control privilege to any member of the organization. It will allow them full editing on the layer. However, the layer must have some level of editing enabled on it already. Thus, a member with this privilege will not be able to turn on editing for any hosted layer, where the layer has editing disabled. ... View more

No, hosted feature layers can contain many more than 1000 features. 1000 features is a rough guideline for drawing the layer on the map, as the features are drawn as graphic elements by the browser, mobile app, etc. You just need to appropriately set scale dependencies. For example, you probably wouldn't want to draw parcels if your looking at a map of the whole country. Thanks, Mike ... View more

Here's a link to the support page. If you are outside the United States, you need to go through your local distributor. Contact Tech Support Thanks, Mike ... View more

Sorry, I am unable to help you with writing an application as I don't write code. Perhaps others in the forum will have input. Otherwise, I'd suggest contacting technical support. Thanks, Mike ... View more

No definite plans yet. We are discussing it. One of the main issues is performance. It's not uncommon for an image to be large in size. If you have a number of images as attachments, it can be a lot of data to send across. Currently, we would have to send the full image, as we don't have a way to create and store a small thumbnail version of it. Mike ... View more

What I see is that I end up with an empty popup on the layer, even after removing the popup. This appears to be a problem specific to CSVs added directly to the web map via a URL. In your example that works, it appears you added the CSV directly to the map, not via a URL. I can't think of any workaround here, if you want to maintain the dynamic nature of the CSV file. I'll write this up as an issue and we'll get it addressed in our next release. Thanks, Mike ... View more

I assume you are talking about labels you've added to your web map through ArcGIS Online. Unfortunately the mobile apps don't support drawing these yet. It's on the road map, but not coming in the next update. Thanks, Mike ... View more

What exactly are you trying to achieve? Are you trying to turn off a popup on one of the layers? But that setting is not being kept? Thanks, Mike ... View more

Unfortunately, at this time there is no way to change the size of the popup window. Thanks, Mike ... View more
