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.

I did it using Data Driven pages.  See the post here. https://community.esri.com/message/586285#586285  ... View more

Oh collector so close yet so far.  Why not let me pick the directory?  I already have my tpks on the card BUT it is in a directory named something different than ArcGIS_Collector.  This now requires me to either change my other program or have then all on there twice. Please consider changing this to let me chose ANY directory in any location.  I have a 3rd party app that has had this ability for years. Thanks ... View more

Anyone know how to add photos back into a Hosted Feature Service at all? ... View more

Thanks.  Any plans to have tables for organization.  Or maybe a "table style" in the collapsible / repeats. ... View more

Are you giving the tool a Map or the Mosaic dataset?  Try a map - that may hide the file type. If you want a custom projection you have to use Generate Tile Scheme Manage Tile Cache Then Export Tile Cache if you want a TPK  (not export has some bugs in it that I logged over 2 years ago) ...

My guess is the projection you are making the cache?  Do you use the AGO scheme or custom.  Also check security on the published file.   Irregular shapes i do all the time. I always unzip my tpk before i use it in Pro or ArcMap and they work fine.  If you do not it has to unzip the whole thing to temp dir then use.  That can take forever on a big file.  (to unzip just rename to .zip and unzip) Do you use the share package tool to upload it to AGO?  Anything over 1gb must use this tool. My workflow is Create Map of images Run Create Map Tile package tool to make tpk  Use Share package tool to share with AGO In AGO open the tpk and hit Publish Use in any map ... View more

I am adding some new fields and taking some away so not sure this would help.  I will look at it though.  Thanks ... View more

I use data driven pages to kick out PDFs.  It has been working well just a pain to build the layout in ArcMap.   See this post for the code https://community.esri.com/message/586285#586285  ... View more

I did notice that there are 3,425 records but the script tries to do 4000 to 5000 for some reason.  It is a table. ... View more

Yep easy to script just call the toolbox. Replaced my path with the word PATH Yes it handles attachments just fine. import arcpy syncToolbox = r"PATH\SyncFeatureService.tbx" arcpy.ImportToolbox(syncToolbox) # sde destination - where the HFS data will be copied TO sdeDest = r"PATH\WorkingGIS.sde" # all FCs from the HFS will get this prefix in the SQL DB sdeTablePrefix = "s123" # URL to the HFS for the survey to sync urlHFS = "http://services2.arcgis.com/PATH/arcgis/rest/services/service_STUFF/FeatureServer" userName = "UN HERE" passWord = "PASS HERE" # Run the toolbox arcpy.SyncFeatureService(sdeDest, sdeTablePrefix, urlHFS, "US/Pacific", "https://www.arcgis.com", userName, passWord) print arcpy.GetMessages() # Clean up memory otherwise it will not run twice in a row arcpy.Delete_management("in_memory") print arcpy.GetMessages() ...

I tried giving a SQL db as the output location.  It does add the records but also said it failed with this error Error Copying Features: FILE: PATH\Download Service with Attachments.py, LINE: 260 "arcpy.Append_management(fs, outputFC)": ERROR 000466: C:\Users\hidden\AppData\Local\Temp\arcF24\mx987E9D92D4E54932AA9208308B7A60DC.gdb\ScratchRecordSet does not match the schema of target PATH\WorkingGIS.sde\WorkingGIS.DBO.LaGrandeSurvivalTrees Failed to execute (Append). Also will it wipe and reload all each time? Thanks ... View more

For Survey123 use their sync script.  Sync right to SQL versus the whole thing everytime https://community.esri.com/groups/survey123/blog/2016/12/14/migrating-data-from-the-survey-feature-service-to-an-enterprise-geodatabase  ... View more
