I am having this same issue but with WebMaps.  How do I fix this for a regular AGO webmap? ... View more

I talked about this a few posts up.  Here is why If you turn on editor tracking then publish it will use  'Created_date'  (this is true for SDE or file geodb). If you publish first with no tracking then in AGO turn on editor tracking it will use "CreationDate"  Why the two ways use different names is beyond me.  Plus it used to be ET_EDITOR a few versions ago so we still have that in some random places. The code should be adjusted for this. Hope this helps ... View more

ArcPro 2.0 is now failing on the Create Map Tile Package tool.  Bummer cause it was working so well.  Not sure why the cache tools always have so many bugs. ... View more

Problem is back in 2.0.  The Manage Tile cache tool still requires a .mxd.  When I make a mxd in ArcMap and try to use it i get a weird 9999 error.   When can we use these tools in Pro? ... View more

So that must be why I can always unzip them using windows but can never zip them back up and work. I do have 7zip.  Is there any help that tells what the settings are for 7zip to work with TPKs (like what compression method). thanks ... View more

In case some of you can not get this to work i just got a new way to work great.  I had been using the ArcRest Create Replica way but I found a bug in tables (it will not add records to any HFS=Hosted Feature Service tables).  So I asked and the ArcRest guy turned me onto another way. This way is equivalent to doing a Export Data from the Item page in AGO  (the one with all the settings and such).  So you may want to do the Export manually first to see if this works on your data. First you need the Item ID of the HFS - get this from the top of the Item page in AGO.  You want the last part after id= URL looks like http://xxx.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=46954aa9bfb24c53bba320f363af8550  Then I slightly modified the ArcRest sample script called  create_replica_portal_item.py  (in other words some of this is not my code) ArcREST/create_replica_portal_item.py at master · Esri/ArcREST · GitHub  LOOK for the caps on what to change  Note the post messed up all the indents - i tried to fix but may be off import arcrest from arcresthelper import securityhandlerhelper from arcresthelper import common import os, time def trace(): """ trace finds the line, the filename and error message and returns it to the user """ import traceback, inspect, sys tb = sys.exc_info()[2] tbinfo = traceback.format_tb(tb)[0] filename = inspect.getfile(inspect.currentframe()) # script name + line number line = tbinfo.split(", ")[1] # Get Python syntax error # synerror = traceback.format_exc().splitlines()[-1] return line, filename, synerror if __name__ == "__main__": proxy_port = None proxy_url = None securityinfo = {} securityinfo['security_type'] = 'Portal'#LDAP, NTLM, OAuth, Portal, PKI securityinfo['username'] = "PUT USERNAME HERE"    #<UserName> securityinfo['password'] = "PUT PASSWORD HERE"    #<Password> securityinfo['org_url'] = "http://www.arcgis.com" securityinfo['proxy_url'] = proxy_url securityinfo['proxy_port'] = proxy_port securityinfo['referer_url'] = None securityinfo['token_url'] = None securityinfo['certificatefile'] = None securityinfo['keyfile'] = None securityinfo['client_id'] = None securityinfo['secret_id'] = None # where to save the zip files savePath = r"PUT OUTPUT DIR HERE" itemId = "PUT ITEM ID HERE" #sample   itemId = "5a9ecdf30f53466bad14f5dbbedb1014"   try: shh = securityhandlerhelper.securityhandlerhelper(securityinfo=securityinfo) if shh.valid == False: print shh.message else: admin = arcrest.manageorg.Administration(securityHandler=shh.securityhandler) item = admin.content.getItem(itemId) user = admin.content.users.user(username=item.owner) # use to set jsut some layers.

Thank Yes I am thinking about changing the dir I use to Collector but that means going out and switching 170+ tablets that are in the field already. Also we use a file structure that allows for using the tpks zipped and unziped which I am not sure collector will allow (the large basemaps work faster unzipped). ... View more

Well the update came out today and it looks like there is no way to choose a directory as i stated in my post.  Since you asked for the list I was really hoping you guys did it.  It only lets you change to sdcard then forces you to use ArcGIS_Collector folder (unless I am missing something). Why not just give is a file pick box?  Please!  If not I will still have two copies of my data.  Also it seems like this change was only for basemaps and it does not have the ability to just read in any tpks.
