Have you tried using Export Tiles with a AOI yet? (unzip the tpk then run it through Export Tiles) It gave a small error when zoomed all the way in our 3rd party app but it may work in Collector. My bugs on on the list so hopefully fixed at 10.4.1? You can also try using Manage Tiles with a AOI then export to turn it into a TPK. Finally if you have a tpk for each site unzip them all. Pick 1 as the "master" and use Import Tiles to add them all in. Then use Export to get a TPK.

Why not turn location services on? Most devices have a dedicated GPS and will get a location offline. We do it all the time. I guess you could also have a script kick off that geocodes that address it was collected at.

ArcPro 1.2 is allowing it for me. Some others told me about it but they have since lost their access all of a sudden. Mine is still working for now.

I agree performance is terrible. Lots of pauses and stops.

I am seeing this also. It is for a 3rd party app though. If I login use corp account it just keeps showing the login screen over and over. If I login with a personal account it works fine. If I login with the personal then switch and login with a corp it works. If i then shut the app and reopen it goes back to not working. Also have an issue with the Share package tool not working. It leads 8 parts then gets a bad token error. Bring it home and it works fine. Let me know if you get anywhere on this. I swear this all started happening when AGO was updated last time.....

The help for the Vector Tile tools is wrong. This code from the help does not work. It keeps saying the value type for in_map is wrong. Create Vector Tile Package—Data Management toolbox | ArcGIS for Desktop p = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject("c:\\temp\\myproject.aprx") for m in p.listMaps(): print("Packaging" + m.name) arcpy.CreateVectorTilePackage_management(m, m.name + '.vtpk', "INDEXED", 295828763.795777, 1128.497176) It just has "Map" for the in_map when copied from the python snippet but that of course does not work in script. I have yet to find anything it likes. Any hints? arcpy.management.CreateVectorTilePackage("Map", r"C:\Vector\Settings.vtpk", "ONLINE", None, "INDEXED", 295828763.795778, 564.248588, r"C:\Vector\SettingsIndex.shp", None, None) The tool to create the vector index will also not accept in_map. Its help has a sample from some other tool?? Create Vector Tile Index—Data Management toolbox | ArcGIS for Desktop The following Python window script demonstrates how to use the CreateVectorTileIndex tool in immediate mode. import arcpy from arcpy
import env
env.workspace = "C:/data/cartography.gdb/transportation"
arcpy.CreateIndexTiles_cartography("CURRENT", "tiles", 10000) Also when copying the snippet from Pro it has another parameter with the value ONLINE that does not exist in the help. #arcpy.management.CreateVectorTileIndex("Map", r"C:\Vector\SettingsIndex.shp", "ONLINE", None, 10000) Please let me know the correct params or point me to help files that are correct. Thanks

For CreateVectorTilePackage yes but for CreateVectorTileIndex no. You must have seen my message before I edited it - I had them in the wrong order at first.

Thanks I figured it was not ready yet. Note one link above has a bad link. Also for me the Style tool just shows a blank screen once I pick a Vector Tile package. I was more hoping to see the ability for end users be able to change via a button in AGO not a json hack (but I know it is really early on in the process).

That page just talks about viewing popups.. On this page it says its possible but the Popup button will not show for Vector Tiles. Configure pop-ups—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS Enable pop-ups on hosted tile layers without feature data You can display pop-ups on hosted tile layers that don't have any attribute data by specifying a feature layer with the data you want to show. Open the map in the map viewer, click Details, and click Contents. Browse to the sublayer of the hosted tile layer where you want to display attribute data, click More Options , and click Enable Pop-up. Specify how you want to choose a layer—Choose from my items or Enter a URL for a layer. If you selected to choose from your items, check the box if you want to include items from your organization, select a map or feature layer from the list, and select a sublayer in the layer to use in the pop-up. If you selected to enter a URL, enter a URL, for example, http://<Server>/ArcGIS/rest/services/<Service>/<LayerId> and select a sublayer in the layer to use in the pop-up. Click Enable Pop-up. Tip: You can follow these same steps for displaying pop-ups on cached map image layers that don't have any attribute data.

I have posted some test Vector Tile Packages to AGO. Does anyone know if there is a way to get attributes in a popup? It sounds possible in the help but only for a custom web app. I see that you can now add a popup for a map service or cache tiles by pointing to a Feature Service but I do not see this option for Vector Tiles. I think the ability to change color is still in development correct? Also please add the ability to see Vector Tile packages and/or Vector services in ArcMap! Thanks

Just found out that ArcPro 1.2 will now allow creating TPKs of web services including Esri basemaps. I just tested a small section so not sure the limits yet. Hopefully this was on purpose and does not get shut down. Not the easiest thing to use but it makes them quickly. 10.4 does still not work.

I have only used AGO for now. I will test if I get a chance. Only thing I can think of is make sure Query is enabled on the HFS.
