@RonnieRichards Did you figure anything out on this? I'm having about the same issue... setting sharing_draft.copyDataToServer = False and I want to be able to get the 'data source not registered' warning/error BEFORE creating the .sd file. So far it will copy all the data locally, then tell me it's not registered. Which is especially not good for large datasets. The 'analyze' button in the UI must be doing something that's not exposed to the api or gp toolset?

Hi All, This process was working correctly just recently, only change has been the latest ArcPro update. I'm basically following the examples in this help doc. Sample of bare min code to reproduce below. My service/task list is pretty complicated so the script is a HUGE time/mistake saver. I've tried a few tweaks and modified it down to just one tool and always get the same result. I've also tried the script with just a single, simple out-of-the box tool (AddXY) rather than the custom tools/scripts -- example below. Environment: ArcPro 3.2.2 ArcGIS Server (standalone 11.1) Process Results: sddraft and sd files get created (no warnings, errors in analyze) I've opened the sd archive and extracted. Everything looks fine. The toolbox contains tools to be published as tasks as configured sd file uploads fine to arcgis server service creates without error no arcgis server manager log errors or warnings nor obvious messages at info level Two issues: service task list is empty! minor but the message level setting does not take. SOC count and other service properties get set correctly. Repro script: result = arcpy.management.AddXY( in_features=r"D:\temp\data\scratch\Default.gdb\GPXPoints" ) ^ sd = r"D:\temp\data\scratch\xy.sd" sddraft = r"D:\temp\data\scratch\xy.sddraft" serverconnectionfile = r"D:\temp\data\scratch\arcgis_on_server.com.ags" serviceName = "XYTest" analyzeMessages = arcpy.CreateGPSDDraft( result, sddraft, serviceName, server_type="FROM_CONNECTION_FILE", connection_file_path= serverconnectionfile, copy_data_to_server=True, folder_name=None, summary="XY Service", tags="gp", executionType="Synchronous", resultMapServer=False, showMessages="INFO", maximumRecords=5000, minInstances=2, maxInstances=3, maxUsageTime=100, maxWaitTime=10, maxIdleTime=180) analyzeMessages #{'errors': {}, 'warnings': {}, 'messages': {}} arcpy.server.StageService(sddraft, sd) #<Result 'D:\\temp\\data\\scratch\\xy.sd'> Attached are the output sddraft and sd files Thanks for any insights.

No i don't think so... the layer indices definitely stayed the same but those are defined in the properties

Hi Eugene, (sorry replied on the wrong login) 1. I don't think i've upgraded or patched my version of Pro since that last publish. I'm running 3.1.2... looks like there's a 3.2.2 available so i'm going to see what happens if i update... 2. sorry for the confusion... My screen shots are just examples of the INT field. I have multiple fields that allow NULL, if the field is an INT and value = NULL, the publish process sets the value = 0, If the fields is STRING and value = NULL, the publish process sets the value = {empty string} or "" when viewed in JSON.

Hi All, Something happened since early December with either Pro or AGOL. We have a feature service that gets updated on monthly-ish interval using the 'Overwrite Web Layer' button in ArcPro. The polygon layer getting published has multiple INT and STRING fields where 'Allow Null=True' and many of the features have NULL values. This was all fine and dandy when we last ran the update on 12/6/23. Today when we ran the update, all the null values are converted to something explicit. INT values are now 0, STRING values are now 'empty string'. This basically broke our application code that expects NULL as well as symbols, query and everything else where NULLs were expected. WTF? Luckily we caught this in a TEST version before deploying to PROD. How do we get the data to publish as NULL? Screen shot of a REST endpoint query for the same data on the PROD (nulls correct) and TEST (nulls converted to 0): I ran a few other publish tests to verify it's not just the 'overwrite' and get the same results. Here's screen shot from Pro of the features being published (source gdb) and the gdb that's extracted from the .SD file uploaded during the publish process. The nulls are being converted sometime in the 'publishing process'

@KenGalliher1 Thanks! That's great. Unfortunately my particular case at the moment is 'traditional' versioning.

@Bud yeah, the SQL profile is crazy lots of dynamic sql text and cursor fetches... the As&Ds look simple enough when you see a few edits on a version or two but the live data makes me think I'll miss something unless I know it's perfectly crafted. Current strategy is: SQL sproc: cursor over version names set_current_version select OIDs to temp (use editor tracking columns if it helps) merge against base temp OIDs do some tweaks for special cases ... we'll see

Done: https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-ideas/add-version-changes-to-the-versions-toolset/idi-p/1355811/jump-to/first-unread-message thanks again for the replies.

ArcPro Versioning Ribbon has a great button: Version Changes. This provides a categorized list of edits in the given version in a nice little UI window. However from there, automation, advanced QA/QC, auditing, event triggering and integrations are difficult if not impossible. The data result of this button would be tremendously useful for those operations as a GP tool.... the Versions Toolset makes sense. An advanced SQL management topic or SDE stored procedure would also be ideal but I understand the complexity there.

@MarceloMarques thanks... i knew it wasn't in the version toolbox (hoping it might be somewhere else hidden...) I'll look into the SDK, i have a vague recollection of doing something way back with the ArcObejcts SDK. I profiled the database when the button was run, hoping for some SQL insight but it's really complicated. We've got a start with some SQL comparing on the multiversion views ... just seems like that button would be useful from arcpy or sql...

‎11-30-2023

Hi All, There's an ArcPro tool called 'Version Changes' on the Versioning ribbon (see picture below). Is there a python/gp tool or SQL template to achieve the same thing? We need to implement some automated QA/QC and auditing tasks. It would be 'waaaayyyy' better if we could grab this info without asking the user to press the button. Thanks

A Geoprocessing Service is an ideal candidate for a webhook handler since ArcGIS server implements the necessary web server endpoint and the scripting can easily access ArcGIS data and functions. However right now a GP service requires structured form values for each parameter in the POST body and won't pass thru the JSON body from the current webhook. I've tried a few options and the webhook fires the GP Service without issue ie: https://myserver.com/arcgis/rest/S123Handlers/GPServer/MyWebHookScript/execute but the JSON data is never passed thru. A simple option 'POST as form values' and either: 1. POST the entire json to a single named parameter (eg 'eventData') 2. POST each selected event data to it's own named parameter: SurveyInfo, UserInfo, etc.. If this was an option, then the GP script can easily be created to match the correct name(s) with string/text type and then parsed in the script.

@Scott_Tansley @A_Wyn_Jones thanks for the suggestions: 1. machine is just installed so no load or anything resource hogging at this point. Basic performance stats from Task Manager: < 10% CPU utilization & < 50% Memory usage Also yes, tried a datastore service restart. 2. Output from describedatastore.bat ... nothing seems out of the ordinary expect the tile cache validates and it's member machine is PORTAL while the relational datastore's member machine is PORTAL.{domain}.com .... the FQDN has been a recurring issue for me, especially on machine that aren't joined to the domain ie dev machine and DMZ machines ...

More info... got fiddler running during the exchange... see pic below... Runs a few requests against the various 'portal/info' endpoints, most fail, but then the 'sharing' one works. Then does the OAUTH sequence which successfully generates an access token Then it attaches the access token as auth header Bearer xxxxxxx on the final two info requests (which are fine without any auth) and those get the 403 result.
