Just wondering if I'm missing something simple here... If you upload a zip file of multiple SHP files or a geodatabase with mutliple feature classes to Portal, the resulting published feature service contains sublayers for the various feature classes.  This is great for organizing multiple datasets under a single named feature service, however, it appears that by default you cannot search for the sublayer names? Is there a way to search for these sublayer names or am I missing something?  Is adding all the sublayer names as tags the only way to manage this?  I sure hope the latter is not the solution... ...

The Portal for ArcGIS documentation states: Everyone—Sharing with everyone makes your item public; anybody who has access to the portal website can find and use it, and group owners can include it in their group content. If your Portal uses SAML Authentication and has Anonymous Access toggled OFF what is the risk of setting content to Public? The reason for the question is that many other GIS applications (QGIS, Global Mapper, etc) cannot access secured services content at this time, so I'm trying to get a better understanding of what 'Everyone' means and what the risks are. Does this mean that web crawlers, bots, etc could find the content and it could end up being shown in ESRI's ArcGIS Online? Does it mean someone that someone would need to 'stumble across' the correct URL to get at the content? Any suggestions/comments/guidance would be greatly appreciated. Warren ... View more

I'm just getting started with creating a time-aware mosaic dataset, and this is a very powerful feature!  I have generated a mosaic of satellite images that span many years.  The image intervals are not consistent, and some years there might be a monthly image for a few months in a row, and then there might not be any images for the next 6 months, etc.  I know this isn't how 'time' works but I'm trying to preempt the question I know users are going to ask...   Can the multidimensional image be configured with the intervals/steps such that each advance on the time bar goes to the next available image instead of displaying no image? The only way I can think of accomplishing this is possibly creating another date field for end date and calculate the differences between each successive image, and use that as the end date. Any other suggestions/comments would be greatly appreciated. ... View more

Hello, I'm configuring a new instance of ArcGIS Enterprise on Azure where the ArcGIS Server and Portal are on different web adaptors, and the portal is configured for Active Directory (AD) authentication. I have also manually created a non AD user (User1) in Portal and it is this user that I'm attempting to login as through the proxy. So far I have: installed the DotNet proxy files and created the Application in IIS setup the the serverURL details in the proxy.config file to use User1 for the proxy the following proxy URLs test successfully: https://<my-server>/DotNet/proxy.ashx?https://my-server/portal/sharing/rest/content/items/<some webmap item> https://<my-server>/DotNet/proxy.ashx?https://my-server/portal/sharing/rest/content/items/<some web app item> https://<my-server>/DotNet/proxy.ashx?https://my-server/arcgis/rest/services/<some folder name> With these URLs testing successfully, I'm assuming the proxy is working, but if I try to hit the web app it continues to bring up the login page Any ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. ...

Can someone please explain how to use the Scale function in the Image Georeference panel in ArcGIS Pro? When I select scale, the image goes transparent a bit and a yellow dot appears at the center of the image: If you hover the mouse over this yellow dot you can see what appear to be 'grips' at the corners and mid-edge point on the image, but as soon as you move off the yellow dot these disappear: I've tried clicking the yellow dot and dragging, but this just causes the image to again disappear off screen? What am I missing?!? ... View more
