@LizArmstrong  Question about the 15-minute auto-sync on a Workforce Project. Does the particular project need to be open on the device (lets say an android tablet) in order for it t sync? Was informed by one of our field workers that he had the project "open in the background" but not actually open and it did not sync until it was open and visible on their device.  If a project is "sleeping" and not being used, does it or does it not follow the 15-minute auto sync process? Thank You ... View more

We have been having issues lately. I understand there has to be an internet connect and there typically is. Even if there is not, once the mobile device regains service, shouldn't the auto-sync re-energize again?? I went thru each and every feature layer that I put into the Workforce project thru opening a web map and each one is sync enabled. All hosted feature layers within the Workforce project came from a file GDB via ArcGIS Pro and all are 32-bit OID.  Not sure what else I am missing. ... View more

@JakeMatthys  Appreciate the feedback. I will experiment with that workflow and see what the results are. I've recently used the Generate Schema Report tool to find any OIDs in my file GDB that are a 64-bit versus a 32-bit, since I understand the 64-bit OID does not work in AGOL/Workforce very well. Any experience if this tool will work the same way on a Hosted Feature Layer from AGOL? Trying to find ways to automate processes. ... View more

@SSWoodward  Yes, I did confirm thru the properties in ArcGIS Pro - Catalog Pane that both tables do show 64-bit OID. When I run the script within IDLE 3.11.8 against the individual table(s), the IDLE produces a blank screen after the script runs. It shows that is ran successfully, just no printed results.  ...

Very Interesting. The (2) tables that Excel flagged with an 8-length in the OID are in-fact GDB Tables, that I created within the GDB versus importing an external table into the GDB ... View more

Curious: I understand this tool works on a file GDB. How about pulling a Hosted Feature Layer from my AGOL portal? Will the tool work on that?  ... View more

BINGO!! This works so much better, since my knowledge of working with Excel is miles above Python. This process did identify a few GDB Tables that are a 64-bit Object ID. No Feature Classes though so not sure if these tables are adding to my issues with AGOL that I am working thru. Appreciate your help @SSWoodward  ... View more

@SSWoodward  Thank you. I will work with these and see. Each File GDB I input into the script, the Idle Shell screen comes back clear. That must tell me that none of the Feature Classes has the 64-bit Object ID and they ALL should be 32-bit.  ... View more

Note, I am using Python Idle to run the query, if that makes a difference. If nothing is returned, does that mean it is not identifying any features with a 64-bit ObjectID?  ... View more

From my research, Hosted Feature Layers that come from a File GDB feature class with an ObjectID 64-bit does not work well with AGOL and Workforce on the auto-sync process. I am working on trying different things thru the process of elimination.  ... View more

@JoshuaClifford1 @AndreasHall  @waddellt  We have had this as an on-going issue it seems, but there is no pattern. Lately, my department super and field foreman are complaining to me big time that the mobile workforce device is not synching, even though I have it set to auto-sync every 15 minutes. Our foreman isn't getting new assignments and operations are not seeing completed assignments.  Is there a bug/issues on ESRI's process(s) OR is there a setting that I am missing? Is there a workaround for get the synching to work again? I know if we redownload the workforce project on the mobile device, anything that hasn't been uploaded/synch will be lost and I will receive, politely "HECK" for it.  Update: I understand that all feature layers within a web map/project need to be sync enabled. I've gone thru each and every one of those and they are all sync enabled. However, on the workforce project overview, it says the worker map has layers that are not syn enabled. Is there an easier way to run a QA/QC process to see if I missed something? Also, is this causing an issue with the overall assignments/workers data from properly being auto sycn'd?  Appreciate any feedback or assistance because I am barely keeping my head above water on this. ...
