@DavidRichey Also, ArcGIS Pro 2.9 is available for upgrade now so you can append data from a feature layer/table to a hosted feature layer on ArcGIS Online while maintaining attachments.   However, if you have related data where relationships are base on GlobalID field, the offline workflow (download, append, overwrite) might be a better option. Because when appending features to a hosted layer, appended features will have new GlobalIDs, the related records will be disconnected from their parent features.   In order to workaround this, you may follow the workflow outlined by @Anonymous User  in this article: https://www.esri.com/videos/watch?videoid=S5V6MIrAKCk&title=how-to-preserve-globalid-guid-relationships-when-appending-records   ...

@DavidRichey  Unfortunately, I don't think it's possible to overwrite a sublayer in a hosted service individually. However, you can download the feature service (including all layers and tables and attachments) as a filegeodatabase, append data to any of the layers that you need and overwrite the entire service. Overwriting the hosted service should not affect the view layers as long as you don't make any schema changes.  ... View more

@DavidRichey You shouldn't run into this issue if you have downloaded both datasets and appending features from one to another in Pro. As long as the "Maintain attachments" option is enabled in the environment settings.  ... View more

Hi @DavidRichey , Unfortunately, there is no way to roll back to an older version of Pro unless you still have the installer file for that specific version downloaded.  With that said, ArcGIS Pro 2.9 update has been planned for second week of November so you may want to wait a few days.  However, if you would like to get it done asap, you should be able to download your data as a filegeodatabase, bring it into Pro (any version should work), and perform the append in Pro. As long as you have "Maintain attachments" enabled under the environment settings, you should see the attachments in the output merged layer. Then you have the option to publish this as a new service or overwrite your existing feature service. Best, MJ ... View more

Hi @GlenShepherd ,   Thanks for sharing this helpful guide. I've done some testing and it seems like having view layers (not joined views) won't affect the ability to overwrite a hosted feature layer.  I was able to successfully overwrite a sample hosted feature layer on ArcGIS Online despite having multiple view layers with different types of view definitions.  After creating views, I downloaded the hosted feature layer as an FGDB, opened in Pro, added new features, added new field, edited existing attributes for the existing feature and overwrote the hosted layer. All views are working fine and still honoring the view layer definition queries.  However, if you have a view created from Join Feature tool, you won't be able to overwrite your hosted feature layer receiving a 400 error: ERROR: code:400, Unable to delete item. This service item has a related Service item, Bad syntax in request.   I would appreciate it if you could confirm this behavior on your end too.  Best, MJ ... View more

Hi @AmyRoust,   As you noted in your post, this is possible by using an Arcade expression in an Indicator widget on a dashboard. In order to do this, you need to modify an existing Indicator widget and use an expression similar to the example below: var startDate = Today(); var endDate = Date(2021,9,28); var daysLeft = DateDiff(endDate, startDate,'day'); return { middleText: daysLeft, middleTextMaxSize: 'large', bottomText: 'Days left...!', }   This will calculate the difference between today's date and the end date that you specify in days and shows the results on your Indicator. These dates can be defined static dates or from the attributes of a feature layer or table used in your dashboard. Notice that when using the Date function, months are defined by 0-11 instead of 1-12 (e.g. 9 is October).     Best, MJ ... View more

Hi @OwenGeo thanks for the update! This is great!! I think the only use case of disabling right-click will be to avoid users from copying the text.   Best, MJ ... View more

Hi @RachelS, A string field appears as a "coded string" when you want to use this attribute field as a filter on your dashboard if: Field has an attribute domain. Field is used to symbolize the layer*. * If the layer's symbology is configured on the map, it won't change the field type on dashboard. Only if the layer style is saved to the layer from the web map or if it's changed from Visualization tab and is saved to the layer.  If you need to use this field as a "string" field to filter your data on your dashboard, you can remove the domain or change the symbology (use a different field or use "Show location only"), or alternatively, create a new field, calculate values from the original field and use one field for domain/symbology and use the other field solely for applying a filter on your dashboard.    Best, MJ ...

Hi @KateBerg2 , While ArcGIS StoryMaps still don't support disabling image download when sharing or embedding a StoryMap, as a workaround, you can disable right-click interactions when you embed your app (StoryMap in this case) in another web page. This can be done by using "pointer-events" property in the iframe:   <iframe src="https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/24cd49esd615c614d70a5ea" width="100%" height="3000" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="pointer-events:none;"></iframe> The downside of this method is that it disables all interactions including showing images in full-screen mode, clicking slideshow buttons, and scrolling. You can enable scrolling by increasing the iframe height. However, it may not be ideal from the design perspective if you have a complex StoryMap and may not work with certain elements on StoryMap such as slideshow and interactive maps. But it should work fine for simpler stories as long as you set the height of your iframe appropriately to fit your StoryMap content.

@pat_algura I understand what you are trying to do now. I've done some testing and but unfortunately, I couldn't find a way to achieve exactly what you need. The closest option that I found is using a table. However, it only works for individual image questions. It still puts images from an image question with multiple appearance in a vertical layout.   ... View more

Hi @pat_algura , In order to add image names, you can use the following in your feature report template to get the image/file name: ${imageQuestionName | getValue:"name"}   If you have an image question with multiline appearance (to capture multiple images) you need to use a tag and ${ $file | getValue:"name"} to get the image name: ${#imageQuestionName } ${$file | size:200:0} ${ $file | getValue:"name"} ${/}     For more details about custom report templates, you may refer to the links below: Understanding Survey123 Feature Reports https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-blog/understanding-survey123-feature-reports/ba-p/897659 ArcGIS Survey123 - Report templates https://doc.arcgis.com/en/survey123/browser/analyze-results/featurereporttemplates.htm   All the best, MJ ...

Hi @JessicaGough , You should technically be able to republish your surveys after adding new questions unless there is a different reason that is causing this issue.  It's a good idea to test the behavior in 3.13. The article you shared is the best way to install a newer version of Survey123 Connect. I personally create a copy of "My Survey Designs" folder at "C:\Users\User\Desktop\ArcGIS\My Survey Designs" as a backup before installing Connect app just in case. Hopefully, republishing from 3.13 will resolve the issue. If not, please share the updates here.  Best, MJ ... View more

Hi @TanyaBagley-Online, I'm sorry to hear that you are still experiencing this issue. This error may have other causes. However, in order to rule out the wrong date format, can you make sure that all date fields in your feature layer has the proper format? Also, you can try the following: Create a new map from the same feature layer. Publish your data as a new feature service. In the new layer published in step 2, you can remove fields one at a time and re-save your map to see if the issue is caused by any of your fields.  If possible, please share your data with me so I can run some more testing on my end.   All the best, MJ ...

Hi @JoshBillings , A defect has been logged against this behavior and will be reviewed by our colleagues. Synopsis: When attempting to export survey data by CSV, Excel, or Shapefile in Survey123, the export process hangs and never completes if a filter is applied to any date field.   It seems like the data can be exported successfully when the filter for the Date Field uses the "in the last" or the "not in the last" operators. While the bug is being reviewed, you may be able to use this as a temporary workaround.   Best, MJ ... View more
