When setting the "Details" of you map in AGOL, there is a set of drop-down options for each layer that includes the choices "Configure Pop-up" and "Disable Editing". To disable only some fields, select the "Configure Pop-up" option, and then click on the "Configure Attributes" link.  You will see a menu that lets you check the fields you want to display and edit. Uncheck the fields where you want to disable editing. Note:  The "Disable Editing" and "Configure Attributes" check boxes to selectively allow editing are only visible if the layer's properties have been set-up to allow editing in the "My Content" section. ...

The feature's fields that can be displayed or edited are set up in the "Configure Popup" section for each editable layer in the AGOL map view.  When you have the Pop-up Properties displayed, click on the "Configure Attributes"  link.  You can then select the fields to display or make editable.  Just deselect editing for the fields you do not want users to edit.  I will typically prevent users from editing some fields while allowing them to view what is in the field. This will work in the off-line mode.  I will also add a "Notes" field where users can enter comments when the non-editable fields may need to be reviewed by an administrator. ... View more

Joe, Symbology by a single attribute is supported.  I wanted to use multiple attributes, which is not supported.  Basically, I wanted to use one field to set the shape of the symbol and a second field to set the color of the symbol. As a simple example, Field1 would contain either "circle", "square" or "triangle" and Field2 would contain either "yellow", "red" or "green". However, since my set of symbols and colors is small (9 in my example), I can put them all in one field.  Values 1-3 would use a circle, 4-6 a square and 7-9 a triangle.  Then 1 would be a yellow circle, 2 a red circle and 3 a green circle., etc. For a lot of colors and shapes, using two fields would better organize the choices for the user. Thanks. ... View more

Jerry: Use the append tool. It looks like you have completed the first two steps that I use for this process.  1: Create a geodatabase with domains and a feature class that matches your point data file, and 2: Convert spreadsheet data into a point file. The next step is to append the point data to the empty feature class.  Open the empty feature class and the point file in ArcMap. Use the append tool found in the toolbox: Data Management Tools > General > Append. The point file will be the input dataset, and the empty feature class will be the target. For Schema Type, I usually select NO_TEST. The Field Map control sets how data is transfered from the point file to the feature class. Click on Show Help >Tool Help for additional information on this tool.  Once appended, take a look at the attribute table of your feature class to make sure everything appended correctly and edit fields if needed. The point file can then be removed from your map document.  Finish tweaking, then share it as a service on AGOL. Hope this helps. ... View more

Russell, I just got word from one of the staff that he can see the new map series on his iPad. So the issue may be related to the recent web updates to AGOL and/or Android. Randy ... View more

Russell, You should have permission. The map “Strata 2 – Fairbanks” and feature layer “Inspection_Strata2”, works in Collector. The almost identical “Strata 6 – Southeast” and “Inspection_Strata6” shows up in Collector but won’t load. Thank you for checking this out. Randy ... View more
