I only have a small organization to worry about with ~ 200 items or so between all users but I'm still fed up with how cluttered our AGOL organization feels. The lack of subfolders is just baffling to me. I'm sure there is probably a reason it hasn't been implemented, but having only one folder level to work with is just awful. I have one dashboard that is a combination of 5 other dashboards. Trying to remember which one I need to edit every time is just annoying. I've started including a prefix of "1 - " on the main one and "2 - " on the sub-dashboards, but if I had additional folders, I could group the sub-dashboards together and leave the primary one up one level, leaving only one option to work with, but just not possible with the current implementation. Does anyone have any tips for better organizing your AGOL data? Any good white pages on effective strategies for cleaning up your org's data? ... View more

We currently have an enterprise database that contains nothing but old raster data. This setup predates my time here but I've kept it going because I haven't had a compelling reason to change it. The mosaic datasets are pretty large (most are over 1k high resolution images).  I'm examining our current practices and looking for potential ways to increase efficiency and this got me to wondering if there is a reason to have it in an eGDB at all? Is there a performance impact on keeping those rasters in an eGDB? The rasters are never edited aside from when they are created. So I'm not sure what benefit there is to it being in an eGDB vs. a regular file geodatabase.  Compounding on that, I'm wondering if it wouldn't be a good idea to explore the option of using a tiled service to share the imagery out to the organization.  How are you guys handling your large raster datasets these days? ...

In the image below, parcels 25B, 15B, and 14B (Selected) had a boundary that was just completely incorrect. Not sure where it came from, to be honest, because I have been unable to find a  We got a new plat in for surrounding parcels (the red ones with COGO) so I drew those in. Since the boundary was so wildly inaccurate I just figured that I would clip that area out, rather than aligning it since there were far too few points to do so and it was too far away to make the align features point feasible.  After doing the clip, however, the stated area and the area unit of those three parcels was nulled out. Those two fields were set to <Null> for some reason and I can't figure out why. Is this an expected behavior? I've attached a short gif that showcases the issue. Please let me know if I am missing something. Thank you!   ... View more

I have an AGOL feature class that has a relationship class between a polygon layer and a table. The table contains case numbers that are associated to each polygon. I would like to configure experience builder to search for those case numbers, select the associated polygon, and then zoom to it.  Unfortunately, I can only get two-thirds of the way there. I have gotten the search configured to use the table as a source. I have an action configured to select the related polygon of the selected table entry that was selected via the search bar, but unfortunately, I can't get it to zoom to the selected polygon, despite having a map trigger set up to zoom to that layer. Here are the settings I have: Search Widget settings Framework settings for selected the related polygon Map settings to zoom to selected polygon Any ideas why this doesn't work? I have gotten it to work on feature classes that don't have a related table. Is it just not possible on a feature class with a related table?             ... View more
