Hello, I have published a feature service hosted in ArcGIS Online that has a field ("musym") with soil symbol codes. (i.e. 11A, 13B, 23C). In a PDF, I have the key for this data. (i.e. 11A = "Leaksville silt loam"). What I want to do is either change the data in this field, or create a new field that will fill in with the correct "translation" so it can be read and understood by people in the field. I'm sure something like this can be done with either SQL or Arcade, but I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out how. I am most familiar with Python syntax, so switching between all of these languages has me a bit mixed up. I was trying to do something along the lines of this (keep in mind, I'm sure the syntax isn't right, I'm just trying to illustrate the logic). if $feature.musym == '11A' $feature.musym = 'Leaksville silt loam' else if $feature.musym == '13B' $feature.musym = 'Mayodan fine sandy loam' else if..... etc Ultimately I want to be able to symbolize based on this information and display the soil type in a pop up. Does anyone have any ideas of how to approach this? I'm very new to writing code (in any language) so any ideas are appreciated. Thanks!

Is this a custom script that you wrote, or one that is widely available? Either way, would it be possible for you to share it here? Many thanks!

Love this idea! This would be extremely helpful for both administrators and general users/publishers. It would also be helpful to be able to know which features are using the most amount of credits for feature attachments. Currently, in administrator view, you can only get this breakdown for feature storage (excluding attachments).

Oh, good point! I hadn't thought about the feature attachments...you're correct that, even in admin view, I don't know of a way to single out which feature layers have a large amount of attachments. However, it might be some consolation that feature attachments only cost 1.2 credits for an entire GB, vs. the 2.4 credits per 10 MB of storage for feature storage. Unfortunately, this seems like a situation again where the users just need to be educated about credit costs and be aware of how much they are publishing and attaching. I completely understand that this is easier said than done, though... Looks like there's been an idea submitted for this already: https://community.esri.com/ideas/15526 I've upvoted it...let's spread the word! It seems like something that would be extremely useful for administrators and general users.

As far as I know, the interface I described is limited to admins. However, any user should be able to see the file size of the content they upload in the item details. So, individuals could calculate their credit usage by looking at the file size of the items they publish. Or, for example, since feature storage is 2.4 credits per 10 MB stored per month, the admin could encourage users not to publish any features larger than 5 MB or something. At the very least I would recommend sharing the link I posted above about understanding credit usage to people within your organization. Hope that helps!

Glad it worked out for you!

I apologize if I'm not understanding correctly, but I believe you can set a filter to be "on by default" in both the web map and the web app. I have a map/app with a data set of over 200,000 parcels, and I applied a filter in the web map so that only around 37,000 of them display when the map/app is opened. This was essential for us so that the layer would actually draw! I didn't notice any lag associated with panning/zooming or searching, so I'm not sure if my situation is different. The only other option I can think of is to use the Extract Data tool (under "Manage Data") within the Web Map through the Analysis ribbon. But sounds like that might not be ideal for you? Sorry, I can't be more help, maybe someone else might have a better idea! Best of luck!

Does the service include a field that specifies the county that it's in? (if not, you could add it?) Then you could just apply a filter to the layer to only display the data for the desired county. Would that work?

Glad I could help!

Mitch, It is likely that most of your credits are being used for storing feature layers. (Tile layers consume a much lower amount of credits per MB). In ArcGIS Online go to Organization -> Credits -> View Status -> (Scroll Down, in the pie chart legend) Click on Storage -> Feature Storage -> Standard Feature Data Storage (in the table below the pie chart) -> and finally, click the "View Item Details" button below the table. Hope that helps! For more information on how credits are consumed you can look at this page: Understand credits—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS More specifically for your question, once you know which layers are consuming the most amount of credits, you can identify which apps or maps they are being used in. However, ArcGIS Online won't list which apps/maps are using credits because the apps/maps themselves don't consume credits. Only the layers that are within them do. All the best, Katherine

Hello Geonet! Has anyone else had issues with georeferencing images in ArcGIS Pro? It's something I do on an almost daily basis in ArcMap, and I keep attempting to switch my workflow to ArcGIS Pro to practice using the software since I know Esri is planning on transitioning completely to Pro. However, I find the experience to be so buggy that I can't even complete this simple task. After fitting an image to display, I try to pan around and my cursor is stuck on the rotate function, no matter which button on my mouse I click. If I change the transparency of the layer with the ribbon and then use the L keyboard shortcut to turn the layer off/on, the transparency doesn't save and it always goes back to 0%. However, if I turn the layer off/on in the TOC it seems to stick. The biggest offender is that when I try to set a control point, once again my cursor is stuck on the rotate function. This has happened so often that I frequently can't georeference the image at all. On my most recent attempt, after several minutes somehow it seemed to change (though I have no idea what caused that to happen) and I was able to set a few control points, but then I opened the control point table and once again the pan function didn't seem to work using either my mouse or the C keyboard shortcut. After enough frustration I went back to ArcMap for a completely smooth process and had several images georeferenced in less than five minutes. Just want to know if I'm alone in this experience or if there are others who share my frustration? I am eager to embrace ArcGIS Pro and the changes that Esri is promoting, but I can't do this if I can't even complete simple workflows such as this. Thanks for any thoughts or input! Best, Katherine

Thanks so much for your response, Phil! I look forward to seeing what functionality gets added to Survey123 in the future.

‎12-10-2018

Hello, I have a request from a client to include a summary field in a Survey that would summarize the entries from a certain field from all previous survey entries so that they can have a quick reference to know which stations have already been monitored. Is this possible with Survey123 Smart Forms? And if not, does anyone have any ideas of an approach to get a similar functionality? Thanks! K

Had this issue today - tried a bunch of different things to troubleshoot, but finally found out that the issue was that the data was PolylineZM instead of just Polyline. I thought I had taken care of that because I disabled M and Z values in my environment settings, but I ended up using the Feature Class to Feature Class tool on all of my layers to turn them into simple Polylines and then I was able to publish. Found that suggestion from this blog: Anna's Hydrology Blog: Get rid of Polyline ZM Hopefully this can help someone, it's interesting to see so many different solutions in this thread! I agree that a more specific error message would be more helpful

I had the same problem with some of my layers, it was extremely frustrating for our field crew who had to keep re-entering their field notes! It's interesting that you're running into this problem now. I logged a bug with Esri that is documented as being fixed as of version 6.2. For me, since the issue seemed to be caused on the initial opening of the widget, I had to tell my field crew to open the edit window, close it, and then reopen it again before entering any edits. This resulted in a much higher success rate of the edits "sticking". Still extremely frustrating though! Maybe your issue will have a more straight forward fix - I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has any ideas!
