Greetings Jake, I am having the same issue as Paula.  However, I have noticed that the issue is intermittent. I am also working on downloading a Feature service that contains attachments. Basically, the FS supports a Collector implementation, so it can have multiple images per point feature. I have been able to download the Feature service twice in the past (before the July update).  The resulting FGDB was shy of 2GB.  Today I have tried again, twice, and both occasions I did get the same error message as Paula, "Error updating file item".  This happened roughly about 10 minutes after starting the Export process. Could this issue be related to the number of credits remaining?  Unfortunately, I am only a Publisher in the organisation I am attempting to download the data from, so do not know how many credits remain.  But surely this should not have any bearing since I do believe  that there is no charge for exporting to FGDB. Anyway, I will try the script and see how I get on, and report my findings. ... View more

Greetings Daniel, That is brilliant!  Thank you very much for this.  Questions arise, is this caused by the size of the dataset in question? Or is it something else? In any case, much appreciate the effort. Miguel ... View more

Greetings Chris, Many thanks for the link.  As a matter of fact, it was Simon's site and the Planning Applications data set I was referring to. Interesting to find out that there are others, well, at least one more individual having the same issue. Would be great to have a response from Esri on the issue, and how to resolve it. Thanks again, Miguel ... View more

Greetings Daniel, I have been observing an interesting issue with an Open Data portal, which is none of the issue reported by Christopher, but that is pretty baffling.  On a particular Open Data portal, I have found a dataset of Planning Applications.  When I check the Table tab, it reports a total of 33,096 features.  However, when I download the data, either as CSV or as a shapefile, the downloaded datasets have double that number of features, or 66192.  Closer examination of the downloaded datasets shows that the features seem to have been duplicated. Have you heard and / or are you aware of this issue happening?  If so, is there anyway to fix it? Many thanks in advance. ... View more

Kimberly, Thank you for your posting.  I have just raised this issue with Esri Support, since I have a user the same issue as reported by  kreuzrsk.  The analyst who dealt with the issue did say that it was possible to have access to the metadata for a spatial view, but only after creating the view using the SDE Command tools to: 1) Creating the view with (sdetable -o create_view), and then 2) registering the view with (sdelayer -o register). However, it seems the above will work only if the spatial type is SDEBINARY, and not if the spatial type is GEOGRAPHY or GEOMETRY.  Would you be able to confirm if this is the case?  If so, is this Esri would consider as part of whatever solution is implemented to deal with this issue? Thanks in advance. ... View more

Mike, many thanks for the advice and the additional warning. Yes we will use the capability with care, and I will advice the same to anyone we inform of this "advanced" hidden capability. By the way, you did mention "... this is something we do want to expose."  Do you have any idea when would access to this "exposure" would be made available? ... View more

That is brilliant Mike, It does exactly what I needed.  More over, you have given me the knowledge that, in a similar way, there are other fine tuning things that can be done to hosted feature services, which I didn't think were possible. I much appreciate your help. ... View more

Greetings Mike, Many thanks for the response.  Would you happen to know when would we be likely to see this functionality implemented? ... View more

Brilliant Mike, Many thanks for the explanation. My lack of knowledge on how KML is interpreted was what did me in.  Now, thanks to you, I feel a little more savvy, and finally, what I have been experiencing makes sense. ... View more
