@BrielleHartney make sure there are no additional files in the directory you have specified for the previousBackups variable.  This directory should only contain webgisdr backups (i.e. .webgissite) files.  Ex: The script iterates through all files within this directory and parses the date from the filename.  If there is another file that is not formatted like above, the script will fail.   ...

@BrielleHartney what version of Portal for ArcGIS are you running? ... View more

@bnmcknigh I must have missed your comment previously.  Recently, I was working with a definition that had nested groups, and the original code did not work.  However, I updated the code (see above) and the new version works. ... View more

Hi @Amagaad , Are you trying to create a user in Enterprise?  If so, use the createUser command instead. ... View more

Hi @Lars_H, First convert the Excel table to a geodatabase table using the Excel to Table tool.  Then, use the Join Field tool to join the fields from the geodatabase table to the shapefile. ... View more

Yes, that is correct.  The only exception is if you create a Stream Service.  Stream Services will reside on the ArcGIS Serer instance GeoEvent is installed on.   All of the other services will be access through the Data Store connections you create (i.e. to your federated ArcGIS Server instance):   ...

The GeoEvent server will not host any services.  All services that GeoEvent polls/updates will reside in your ArcGIS Server instance that's federated with Portal. ... View more

With federating, the only thing that changes is how you authenticate to GeoEvent.  If Portal is down,  you will be unable to connect to GeoEvent Manager.  If you are using the Spatiotemporal Data Store, you will need a Portal connection in order to create an output in this data store.  If you are not, you should be good to just use an ArcGIS Server connection.  I prefer to use ArcGIS Server rather than a Portal connection when not working with Spatiotemporal feature services.  When using a Portal data store connection, you can only poll/update feature services owned by the credentials that created the data store connection.  With an ArcGIS Server data store, if you connect as an admin account, you have access to poll/update ALL services, regardless if you are the owner or not. GeoEvent will not be able to connect directly to SQL DBs.  Any data you wish to use from SQL will need to be published as a service for GeoEvent to consume.  ... View more

Hi @AKRRMapGuy, you should not have to upload GeoEvent's certificate to Portal or ArcGIS Server.  Are you deploying GeoEvent to it's own dedicated server?  This is recommended.  Once you have GeoEvent installed on it's own server, it is not required to federate with Enterprise.  I typically recommend not federating. In GeoEvent, you can create Data Store connections to Portal and/or ArcGIS Server.  If you receive an error after registering one of these data stores, check the logs.  You may receive an error that GeoEvent was unable to perform an SSL handshake to https://<portal>:7443/arcgis, or https://<server>:6443/arcgis, if this is the case, you will need to import Portal/ArcGIS Server's certificate into GeoEvent's admin directory (https://<geoevent>:6443/arcgis/admin/machines/<machine>/sslcertificates/importRootOrIntermediate.   ...

Hi @CiaraMarleneKeenan, You could do this via python.  Below is an example.  It first gets a dictionary of all APNs with their FacilityID.  Then delete's all identical rows based on the APN field.  Finally, it updates the FacilityID field for each APN based off the dictionary.  You will want to make sure the field, FacilityID, you are updating is a TEXT field.     import arcpy table = r'C:\TEMP\Python\Test.gdb\Areas' # Create dictionary of APNs and FacilityIDs apnDict = {} with arcpy.da.SearchCursor(table, ['APN', 'FacilityID']) as cursor: for row in cursor: apnDict.setdefault(row[0], []) apnDict[row[0]].append(str(row[1])) del cursor # Delete Identical APNs arcpy.DeleteIdentical_management(table, 'APN') # Update APNs with Facility IDs with arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(table, ['APN', 'FacilityID']) as cursor: for row in cursor: facilities = apnDict[row[0]] facilityIDs = ', '.join(facilities) row[1] = facilityIDs cursor.updateRow(row) del cursor   Before:     After:     ...

Hi @lannguyentl, One way to sync the data is you could perform a truncate/append: Truncate the Enterprise Geodatabase feature class Append the data from the hosted feature service to the Enterprise Geodatabase ... View more

I may be misunderstanding your workflow.  Are you trying to truncate/delete rows from the CSV?  Instead of doing this, I would recommend creating a ModelBuilder that performs the following: Truncates the feature service Converts the local CSV to points using XY Table to Point Append the feature class to the feature service ...
