Attempting to launch ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1 via PowerShell DSC. Our environment will contain Portal, DataStore and 2 ArcGIS Servers. For this reason, the config-store and directories are on a shared network location: \\fileshare.test.com\dfs\arcgis\arcgisserver\config-store The ArcGIS Service account is a domain account and has full control on the arcgis folder. I'm getting this error: Failed to create the site. The specified configuration store location is not accessible. Ensure that the ArcGIS Server account has read and write access to the lo cation." JSON file is configured like so for config-store: "ConfigStoreLocation":"\\\\fileshare.test.com\\dfs\\arcgis\\arcgisserver\\config-store" If I manually configure the site, I can successfully set the config store. Seems like the issue is creating the site via dsc. Any ideas or specific permissions I need to allow for the ArcGIS Server account?

We recently transferred our ArcGIS Server site config-store and directories from one machine to a network DFS location and seeing some major performance issues. A bit about the architecture: Multi-tier ArcGIS Enterprise with 4 ArcGIS Servers participating in the site. Till now, we had the config-store and directories pointed to a location on one of the machines; after reading this doc we decided to move both config-store and directories to a dfs location. The ArcGIS Server account has full permissions here. You might choose to put the configuration store on a machine or disk that is not dependent on the ArcGIS Server, such as a fault-tolerant file server. After doing so, server manager is very slow to come up (~10-15 minutes to bring up services pane). 95% of services, maps, apps etc are functional but administering services is now impossible. Today I came access this esri doc where it says DFS is not supported. Choose a storage device that enables files to be read immediately from any node in your site once an operation and corresponding write has completed. This disqualifies many types of distributed file systems, such as GFS and DFS. NFS shares must be configured to ensure consistent reads and avoid using stale data caches. Is DFS not a fault tolerant file share? Do I need to request something different from my IT. Thanks in advance.

Using the update method worked for me user = gis.users.get(username='testuser') user.update(categories = ["/Categories/TestCategory"])

Is it possible to query all application item_types at once? For example all the item_types listed in the doc under Applications: https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/users-groups-and-items/items-and-item-types.htm I have this query to get all web mapping applications items = gis.content.search(query='owner:Test', item_type='Web Mapping Application', max_items=1000) How to change this so I can query all dashboards, web mapping applications, web experiences, etc at once?

Recently joined a new company and need some advice on their setup. Running Enterprise 1091. Currently our Analysts publish all their data as referenced (from SQL Server) with Shared Instances and Feature Access enabled - regardless of whether they will be editing data through the rest service. To me this is unnecessary as it adds additional services on our GIS Server. I'm still trying to wrap my head around shared instances though, so my question is: Does having un-needed feature access on 75% of our services negatively impact server performance?

I think you can still use hyperlinks for webmaps. You need to put your photos/docs on a web server and add the path in your attribute table. I would recommend attachments for web maps though. In general attachments are a cleaner solution, no overhead managing files on a web server, and more performant from my experience. Attachments can be viewed directly from web map popups too, I think hyperlinks always open in a new tab. I could be wrong though, it's been a few years.

@DerekLaw Are we going to be able to upgrade from 2023.0 to 2023.1? Or is a fresh install required?

Change Portal user lastLogin date · ‎03-30-2023

I'm working on a python script to query stale users in our Portal and send out email reminders to login. Currently running ArcGIS Enterprise 1081. I'm looking for ideas on how to create test users and manually set their lastLogin date, so I can test a few different scenarios. For example find users that haven't logged in 90 days, 50 days, 25 days, etc. I've seen from https://machine.domain.com/webadaptor/sharing/rest/community that I can search for users and view their properties, lastLogin included. Just not sure if this is editable and if so, how to do that. Thanks!

There's a ton of variables here but in general, we've had great success with using ArcGIS Enterprise via Workspaces. 50% of our users edit their data via feature services in a Portal web map or app. The other half have Pro installed on their workspace and edit their data there. A lot of our end users mention that editing/geoprocessing is much faster via the workspace than on their local machines.

Excellent, thank you! I ended up using regex(skills, ${skill}) and it worked like a charm.

Running Survey123 Connect. I have two questions both select_one from lists. List one: Group_A, Group_B, Group_C List two: Viewer, Editor, Publisher If the user selects Group_A for question #1, I want question #2 to show Viewer, Editor, Publisher If the user selects anything other than A for question #1, I want question #2 to only show Viewer, Editor. Can this be done?

Running ArcGIS Enterprise 1091. I published a map service from a registered data store to our enterprise environment. I can see it in Server Manager and Portal but when I try to add it to a map, I get the error 'Unable to add to map'. In Server Manager, the rest url shows what I would expect: https://gis.company/arcgis/rest/services/folderName/serviceName In Portal, the url shows the internal/admin url: https://ip-12-190-111-80.internal:6443/arcgis/rest/services/folderName/serviceName Why would this happen and what can I do to have the portal item display the correct external url?

@FredericPoliart_EsriAU I had the same issues with 16.x and 18.x versions of node. I removed those and installed 14.21.1 and made sure the chocolatey option was unchecked.

Quick update: Experience Builder Developer Edition 1.8 has the ability to list items by card or list view. This is what I'm looking for in Survey123 Connect.
