After running arcpy.server.UploadServiceDefinition to create a map service in my ArcGIS Enterprise (10.9.1), the documentation indicates I should be able access the out_mapServiceItemID by looking at result.getOutput(2).  However, the return value is blank.   result = arcpy.server.UploadServiceDefinition(service_definition, "https://arcgisenv/serverWebAdaptor", in_folder_type="EXISTING", in_folder="myfoldername") result.getOutput(2) #this ends up being '' I'm trying to get the Portal Item ID of the map service that is published using the above service definition.  Documentation says it should be available in the derived output (https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/server/upload-service-definition.htm).  In fact every output is blank after the first 2.   Any ideas what could be happening? ...

I'm working on a map where when a user clicks on a State, they get a chart of congressional district breakdown for that state.  So far it's been easy, but I can't customize the colors of my pie chart colors.  I would like to have red and blue slices for the district breakdown, but can't figure out how.  Any ideas? Furthermore, anyone know how to have tooltips on the chart without hovering over a slice?   var clicked = $feature.STATE_ABBR; var districts = FeatureSetByName($map, "USA 118th Congressional Districts (All Territories)") var f = Filter(districts, "STATE_ABBR = @clicked") var party = GroupBy(f, "PARTY", {name: "count", expression: 'PARTY', statistic: "COUNT"}); var chartValues = {}; var chartTitles = []; for (var blah in party){ chartValues[blah.PARTY]=blah.count Push(chartTitles, blah.PARTY) } return { type: "media", title: "Congressional district breakdown by state", altText: "Congressional district breakdown by state", attributes: chartValues, style:{ colors:[ "#f6eff7", "#dbc9e1", ] }, mediaInfos:[{ type: 'piechart', value:{ fields:chartTitles, tooltipField: "PARTY" } }] }     ...

I've configured ArcGIS License Server Admin (2022.1) for concurrent use licensing for our Pro users.  I'm trying to figure out how to get detailed usage information.  In the debug log viewer, I see: This log is intended for debug purposes only. In order to capture accurate license usage data into an organized repository, please enable report logging. Use Flexera's software license administration solution, FlexNet Manager, to readily gain visibility into license usage data and to create insightful reports on critical information like license availability and usage. FlexNet Manager can be fully automated to run these reports on schedule and can be used to track license servers and usage across a heterogeneous network of servers including Windows NT, Linux and UNIX. However, I do not see any documentation on how to do this.  Can anyone point me to the right direction here? ... View more

I'm trying to establish some devops patterns around publishing services in ArcGIS Server without a Windows machine with access to our production enterprise geodatabase from which to publish my Pro documents.  Currently, from my development machine, I can configure my aprx with my layers pointing to dev tables.  I can then get those aprx folders over to my production (Linux) Server via source control, and run a script with arcpy.mp.updateConnectionProperties to swap all my dev tables with production tables. Then i can go through the documented arcpy process to script map service publishing.   However, those arpx folders get large, and storing them in source control seems unnecessary.  I'm curious how I might instead save an offline service definition file, pass that through source control, and use arcpy to swap out the enterprise geodatabase connection information, and publish that.   Any tips or documented workflows someone can point me to? ...

I'm getting some strange behavior when enabling a enterprise geodatabase feature class for versioning to support distributed collaboration.  If I use python and arcpy to enable traditional versioning and global ids    arcpy.management.RegisterAsVersioned(source_table) arcpy.management.AddGlobalIDs(source_table)    I get an additional table in my enterprise geodatabase - the same name as my source table with _evw appended (mytablename and mytablename_evw for example).   However, if I use ArcGIS Pro catalog pane to do the same thing - register as versioned and add global ids, this evw table is not created.  My question is is this evw table required if all I am using versioning for is to support distributed collaboration with ArcGIS Online.  I'm not even enabling any feature services for editing - just sync ...

We have some kafka topics with many partitions - almost 150 in one case.  When creating an input connector, I'm curious if I'm able to only subscribe to a single or range of partitions - which would effectively filter the data before it gets to geoevent.  My only other option would be to filter after the data gets there - but worried the processing power of our server couldn't handle it effectively.   The partitions are split by site - we have over 150 sites, so if I want to pull in data from a subset of sites, being able to subscribe to specific partitions would be helpful.  ...

A user has a vanilla PostGIS database, and would like to view the data in Pro, as well as publish tables by reference to Enterprise.  Is there a list of best practices / requirements to optimize the experience (both in Pro and from the Enterprise web service standpoint)? For example, what we've seen so far in testing is: integer unique identifier column lowercase field names (or at least geometry column needs lowercase field name. I'm curious if there are other important requirements / best practices.  For example, setting a spatial index.  Same "best practices" question for publishing the table by reference in Enterprise.  At minimum, when traversing the table list in the Catalog pane, how do you make the spatial table icons show up with the spatial type (see screenshot)?    ...

It seems like the vessel traffic data being curated by Esri has stopped at May 2020 - this is for the app, but also data in the Vessel Traffic group. Is this something Esri plans on picking back up again, or should we expect to not have more recent data backfilled? ... View more
