Fred: Thanks for the feedback...most appreciated.  I tried restarting the print service (that comes with Portal) and then the 12 print services that I have created (based on page size), but this didn't eliminate that one print service in the drop-down menu.  It's strange because that template or print service no longer exists anywhere I can see, so the Portal print widget must be grabbing that service name from a file somewhere that has yet to be edited. I was hoping this "file" (if it does indeed exist) would be accessed through Portal Admin or Server Admin etc., but I'll keep searching.  The print service in question is not found in Server Manager either. Thanks again ... View more

Ke: What I found what works for me (when publishing a web map from ArcGIS Pro to Portal) is to simply add "Service Layer Credits" from the Dynamic Text option under the Insert - Text tab (nothing else required): Once selected it just appears on your map...and from there I just moved it to the side out of the way to ensure that it won't appear in my template.  I colorized it because it will disappear as soon as you click on something else...and sometimes it was just a pain to find it again (i.e. is it still there, or did it delete itself?).  By colorizing it the dynamic text box remains visible and in that spot [user preference of course :-)].  There might be other (more correct) ways of doing this, but this was the quickest and easiest solution I found. Does this answer your question? ... View more

Aaron: Exactly what Jonathan said.  We federated our ArcGIS Server-Portal for ArcGIS first, and then installed Data Store.  The certificate issue did come up with our implementation too, but it was soon resolved.  Once our Data Store was installed, configured and recognized, we were then able to set the hosting server in Portal under: Organization ► Edit Settings ► Servers. ...

!!! Mostly Solved !!! I had an inkling just after I first posted the question, tried it out, and then solved my own problem, but only for my custom map templates.  It is resolved exactly the same way you would resolve it in ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro.  You simply insert the Service Layer Credits dynamic text in your print widget template (in either ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro) and then share that web tool to Portal.  The base map credits then disappear from within Portal (when published to PDF, JPG etc.). So my last question then is, "can one eliminate the base map credits from the MAP_ONLY option in Portal?" ... View more

I made a mistake and took a screen shot of the wrong process in the Service Editor.  I didn't set the Format to "Required" as per above...I set the choice list in the Layout Template as "Required" :-).  Sorry about that:    ... View more

Derek: Thanks for the feedback...much appreciated (again).  I was following that tutorial on publishing additional services for printing in ArcMap, but for some reason it was not showing up as one of my print options in the Web App.  However, I may have resolved the issue (with only one less critical issue remaining).   In the web app builder one is required to add a path to the print services for one's custom print templates.  Mine looks like:  https://gis.rupertport.com/arcgis_server/rest/services/Print_Services/POPR_11x17_Portrait/GPServer/Export%20Web%20Map However, there are three things I adjusted this time to make it work: 1) When preparing to publish I set the parameters in the Service Editor to "Required" instead of "Optional"   2) In the web app builder I reset the print services path to reflect the latest version of my default settings before publishing: https://gis.rupertport.com/arcgis_server/rest/services/Print_Services/POPR_11x17_Landscape/GPServer/Export%20Web%20Map 3) I also noticed that I had neglected to share the new print service with "Everyone" before, so I made sure I shared it out in Portal once it was published.  It wasn't even showing up in REST Services until I did this. Once done I now see my other choice for a map template available as a custom print service in the web app: Now I just have to figure out why our orthophoto appears at this scale in the web app, but it won't appear in the resulting PDF, unless I go to a larger scale.                                  Web App Thanks ...

OK, I have it resolved, at least enough to satisfy my needs, and there were quite a few things that had to be implemented to get this to work.  The first thing I did (as Derek suggested here) was to federate Portal with Server.  Then I tried to add ArcGIS Data Store to our family of servers...something we didn't think we needed at the initial time of implementation.  However, when I tried to install ArcGIS Data Store it would not permit me because I was trying to install version 10.6.1 in a family of servers running version 10.6.  So I ended up having to upgrade our entire ArcGIS Enterprise to version 10.6.1 When this was completed I found that the option to create a feature layer from within Portal for ArcGIS under the Contents --> Create tab is now available: ...

Has there been any further development on configuring this WAB drag & drop tool?  All I have been able to do is run the GP tool but naturally it won't display any results because I need to be able to change the coordinate system to see the results; hence, there is nothing to publish.  I'm using ArcGIS 10.6.1, and have just upgraded Portal and GIS Server to 10.6.1 as well.  I'm also using ArcGIS Pro 2.2, but I'm not sure yet if this tool will work in ArcGIS Pro (I need to get it working in ArcMap first ).  It would be useful if we could all learn: 1) What needs to be updated to make this work (i.e. Python script? JSON script? If so, which ones?)? 2) How do you edit the projection choices in the ImportFile tool? 3) If the results do not appear in the ArcMap TOC and Data Frame, then where do the results end up? 4) Has anyone seen a more detailed "step-by-step" explanation on how to configure this tool properly? Would love to demonstrate this during our GIS Day presentation on November 14th (2018). Thanks ... View more

Derek: Thanks.  I'm surmising then that when ArcGIS Enterprise is upgraded then all of the web maps (and apps) stored there will be deleted?  My problem is that I have created custom pop-ups for staff here that took me a few days to set up, but to have to reconfigure everything every time I upgrade that would be a major chore. I have managed to redo some of it as aliases in each feature class in the enterprise geodatabase, and that does work...but I would still have to recreate web maps and apps every time I upgrade it seems. ...
