This is still an issue, I recently upgraded to Pro 3.2 from 3.1. I've been using a python script retrieve features and table data from a REST service and export the updated results based on a joined layer to a feature class. fieldmappings don't work at all no matter what format I've tried. We are currently running Enterprise 11.0, I can run the same script on the server and it functions as expected. This is most certainly a bug. Also, the feature classes created with 3.2 from the REST service cannot be accessed in Arcmap 10.8.2, even though they reside in a File or Enterprise GeoDB where other feature classes can be accessed from Arcmap. This isn't the case if the feature classes are exported from another File or Enterprise GeoDB using Pro 3.2. ... View more

This is in Android but One of the things that can be done is to use an expression to generate a link, then use that along with a URL to a pic in the popup media. In Field Maps when you tap the image it opens in another window, the options there allow you to open the link. In my case, it downloads the file to my phone/tablet, before opening. The same format is a nice single click to open in the browser with the same web map. Not great but gives access for now. ... View more

So, I've been trying the COGO tools in Pro for a few days, I certainly should have checked into the functionality before posting my original Idea in this forum, but thanks for all the helpful responses. Many improvements have been made since the earlier versions of Pro. I still didn't find the ability to edit the direction and distance of an existing line, if that is somehow available without loading from sketch, I'd like to know. It seems to me that if the correct ground to grid corrections are set it really shouldn't present the problems mentioned in several posts about lines not connecting? It sure seemed to work in ArcMap?  As for the parcel fabric, It is a great thing as far as I can tell, as with many things there have been significant changes since it was first introduced. I think some of us who have been working with the software for many years have learned to anticipate these things. We are therefore reluctant to be early adopters, especially for those of us who are very short staffed in our organizations. Even at this point, the changes in field types presents a significant commitment in time when considering moving into the parcel fabric for a single person who is already managing an enterprise GIS and updating features for utilities, roads, parcels, boundaries, and all sorts of other stuff. Changes to fields and moving to branch versioning are all complicated things when so many processes are running on scripts to update and publish information for users of all sorts. With that said, I still try to keep our parcel features in a schema that will make it somewhat easier to transition to the parcel fabric at some point. I have noticed looking at the current fabric schema, that it will not be as easy to label lines from lots and blocks where the direction offset/convergance angle differs from subdivision to subdivision, so that the info very closely matches what is on the plat documents. I have found the one arcade funciton ConvertDirection but seems like there should be some easy funcitons in Arcpy to go from the COGO Direction field to various Direction formats. Thanks again for all the responses, the community has been helpful!   ... View more

I tried the arcade function above and ran into an issue (possible bug) between SQL enterprise geodatabase and a file geodatabase. The script worked in the file geodatabase but not in the enterprise geodatabase where it gave the error "expecting a mutable array". NOTICE I added the Number function to the field value being passed in. function NorthAzimuth2Quadbearing(azimuth){ return ConvertDirection( azimuth, {'directionType':'North', 'angleType': 'Degrees'}, {'directionType':'Quadrant', 'angleType': 'DMS', 'outputType': 'text', 'format': 'pd[°]mm[\']ss["]b'}) } NorthAzimuth2Quadbearing(Number($feature.Direction)) After some research looking at the tables in SQL we decided that maybe it wasn't finding the recently added fields. We compressed the SQL geodatabase and the above Arcade expression then worked in ArcGIS Pro Field Calculator even without the Number function. Which leads me to think maybe the Arcade function isn't accessing the evw files correctly in SQL ?? ... View more

I was recently using this arcade function and ran into an issue (possible bug) between SQL enterprise geodatabase and a file geodatabase. I was converting DMS to Degrees and likely the other way around too. The script below worked in the file geodatabase but not in the enterprise geodatabase where it gave the error "expecting a mutable array". Function DMS2DD(theTextAngle){ return ConvertDirection(theTextAngle, {'angleType':'dms','directionType':'north'},{'outputType':'value','angleType':'degrees','directionType':'north'}) } -DMS2DD($feature.TEXTANGLE) After some research looking at the tables in SQL we decided that maybe it wasn't finding the recently added TEXTANGLE field. We compressed the SQL geodatabase and the above Arcade expression then worked in ArcGIS Pro Field Calculator. ... View more

Great! All we need is the traverse from sketch, or can you do that now too? Honestly, it's been awhile since I checked. ... View more

I would just like to add to these comments it would be really nice if you could add similar tools as what was available in Arcmap so that we can all use COGO entries whether implementing a parcel fabric or not. I have used them for years without a parcel fabric and would really like to continue doing so. Obviously, the pro people at ESRI have made the calculation there is some other way to do this by enabling your feature classes, I'm not sure why that is so important to you. Many of us would just like to use the feature without doing that. Also, the load from sketch option is something I've used for years for many different reasons and many different features, from utilities to various parcel layers. Rather then explaining why I want them, could you please explain why ESRI refuses to give the tools we had before? Because these things are not available in Pro, I still use Arcmap for several editing workflows. ... View more

I have arcade expression that work fine in a browser, but now in Field maps it is opening the the image rather then the link! They worked fine previously at some version and I just noticed they weren't working, so downloaded the latest version of Field Maps, but instead of going to the link it opens the link image. This is really quite just nuts. ... View more

I can tell you this, you'll need to use the arcgis API for Python, the link they pointed the initial poster to was for older python functions from Arcmap. you'll need to get to this hosting_servers=gis.admin.servers.get(role="HOSTING_SERVER") to get a  DataStoreManager = hosting_servers[0].datastoresDataStoreManager    I used this with a csv containing the parameters  dstores = hosting_servers[0].datastores inputFile = r"\\mypathto\The.csv" try: with open(inputFile, 'r') as newDSFile: DSdict_csv = csv.DictReader(newDSFile) for dstore in DSdict_csv: print("Adding the " + dstore['dsType'] + " datastore: " + dstore['dsName']) if dstore['dsType'] == 'FOLDER': item = dstores.add_folder(dstore['dsName'],dstore['dsServerPath']) if item: print(str(item.properties) + '\n') elif dstore['dsType'] == 'DATABASE': con = dstores.generate_connection_string(dstore['dsServerPath']) item = dstores.add_database(dstore['dsName'],con) if item: print(str(item.properties) + '\n') except Exception as Ex: print(str(Ex)) ...

I have essentially the same question! Not sure why it needs to be a hosted feature layer? I noticed one other thing since upgrading enterprise to 9.1. https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/latest/use/data-store-items.htm I'm wondering if creating an item from the server registered datastore would allow for the download functionality that exists for hosted data? ...

The thing I'm not finding is the ability to "Load Traverse From Sketch" which is very handy for me to edit the length of existing line segments.  ... View more

Yes, you can set multiple fields to search, but only one field displays! Could just use the Popup from the map layer too! ... View more

I can add this bit of info, in our case we are using a redirected URL for our portal and server web adaptors. The enterprise installation (portal,server,etc) exist on the same virtual machine as the License server. ... View more
