Apologies if I missed this, but I'm confused, if we want to do this upgrade but have thousands of open data feature services, do we need to enable "Extract Capabilities" for each feature service item in Hub? Is the "Export Data" setting on the item in ArcGIS Online the exact same thing? If I recall correctly, doesn't enabling that allow anyone to download the layer in different formats directly from ArcGIS Online, thus somewhat nullifying the need for a Hub/open data site? Or, does the "Extract Capabilities" option only expose it on the Hub side? If enabling "Export Data" is the same thing, perhaps one can use the free GeoJobe admin tools to batch set it on many layers? Some additional questions/feedback: 1.) Can someone point me to the projection/coord system setting location for open data sites? I can't find it, and I recall weren't there 2 options, either Web Mercator or the native format (or was it Geographic)? 2.) It would be great if there could be raster download capabilities, it still seems for most, if not all, raster layers shared to open data, a user can basically just view or open it online but not download it locally, or at least not the entire dataset. Thanks for any help or insight!

Is there a blog/matrix/document somewhere that compares functionality differences between Drone2Map and Site Scan Manager? i.e. besides the obvious local vs cloud processing, what tools or options are uniquely offered in one or the other? Are they both using the same processing engine now? I’ve noticed Drone2Map now has a separate DJI Camera Support add-on for thermal imagery – is that also in Site Scan Manager by default now? Thanks..

I heard from Esri support that 3.4 release is expected around end of November (hopefully sooner), and yes there will be a new ArcGIS license manager as well (presumably 2024.1) for concurrent use licenses.

Happens to me still all the time, this should be the highest priority to fix 🙂

I am very interested to know if and when there will be a 3.4 release mostly because we are using concurrent use licenses (yes, aware they will go away in about a year) and will likely need to upgrade the ArcGIS license manager software at the same time.. we also need to upgrade to version 2024.0 to officially support 3.3, but I'm hesitant to do that if 3.4 and 2024.1 or 2025.0 will be released soon.. I'd rather wait for that.. any intel or insight would be greatly appreciated! I also found the following link to a list of previous release dates which at least as of today is more up to date than the wiki article mentioned elsewhere in this thread: FAQ: What Are the Build Numbers for Releases of ArcGIS Pro? (esri.com)

This is definitely still happening for me, today My Esri has a maintenance notice banner at the top (see attached) that points to a blog post in the Community, and first time I clicked it just went to the Community home page, 2nd time it went to the blog post. Y'all might want to consider not posting such type of notices in the Community until this is fixed, thanks.

Hi, looking for clarification on what the ramifications are if after publishing drone imagery to ArcGIS Online via Site Scan Manager or Drone2Map (i.e. Tile Package gets transferred to ArcGIS Online and then published to Tile Layer (hosted)), what happens if you delete the Tile Package source afterward? I've seen conflicting info with some documentation saying there's no dependency, but others saying if you want the hosted Tile Layer (hosted) taken offline in apps (Field Maps, etc.), that the Tile Package still needs to be available - is that true? Thanks

Yes, I still experience this problem occasionally as well, please fix! Thanks

Trying out Atlas template with some Living Atlas live feed layers and some of org's basic 2D content (simply point and polygon layers), but when switching to 3D nothing draws. What am I missing? Do the layers need to be prepped or enabled in a certain way to display in the 3D option? Shouldn't Esri's own live feed layers (such as USA Current Wildfires) work in this template in 3D as well as 2D? Thanks for any insight.

Update: As of today (6/28), this now seems to be fixed, both Creator and Professional ArcGIS Online user type accounts are working successfully with Named User licenses for ArcGIS Pro, so perhaps the previous errors were early glitches? And I guess that means for the time being, our users holding such accounts can either use the Named User or our existing Concurrent Use licensing.

‎06-27-2024

I switched to an account of user type Professional instead of Basic and it seemed to work to run ArcGIS Pro as Named User, but then I tried switching back to an account with user type of Creator instead and still trying Named User, and now I get a different message "number of licenses exceed number available..." (see graphic). Any help figuring this out would be appreciated.

Our org has been using Concurrent Use ArcGIS Pro licenses (Basic and Advanced only) for many years and also has many ArcGIS Online org account user type licenses. With the June 2024 update, we see that some org account user types are now described as also including access to ArcGIS Pro, for example: ArcGIS Pro Basic for Creator user types, and ArcGIS Pro Standard for Professional user type. However, when I test this with ArcGIS Pro (after switching licensing to use Named User instead and signing in with an account with Creator user type), I get an error "An unknown error has occurred. Contact your organization's administrator to check that your licenses are valid" (graphic also pasted below). Is this expected behavior for orgs with Concurrent Use licenses? i.e. is there an error because we already have another form of licenses (Concurrent Use) and they're redundant, or should we now be able to use either Concurrent Use OR switch to Named User now for our users who have the appropriate account user types? And by "organization administrator" do they mean our org's person who manages Esri licensing (like me, but I have no clue how to fix this), or our Esri customer service rep person? Thanks for any insight.

Looks like I never got a response to this, so am attempting to bring attention back to this, any Esri support folks out there? Thanks.

‎05-22-2024

Thanks for finding the other thread, I have now posted in that other thread (referencing this thread) that it no longer appears "solved" and hoping Esri can look into it further.

‎05-22-2024

This is not solved, it is still happening to others such as myself and per other respondents in this separate thread (assuming when you click the link it doesn't go to the home page, ha ha). Esri support folks - please try again to fix this as it is very inconvenient when trying to share Esri Community content to others, thanks!
