Thank you @emedina for the great information to update the layer's symbology globally, and to observer the browser network logs for the generateRenderer call. I checked, and seems this is also possible for referenced portal feature layers. Note for others: For Map Image Layers (MIL), the visualization tab is not an option due to the difference in the way this portal item works. Yet, seems there is a way to update the symbology for a MIL, as per @emedina's blog section: How to Update Portal/ArcGIS Online Item Symbology: Also, check out the ArcGIS API for Python WebMap object, update_drawing_info method ...

The error I had came even though the data was not referenced. The data was being copied to the server, I suppose the Managed ArcGIS DataStore of the Hosting Server. This was the error: WARNING 086223: Jobs directory in service definition is not set or is invalid. Using default jobs directory. Creating the service. ERROR 001487: Failed to update the published service with the server-side data location. Please see the server's log for more details. ERROR 001369: Failed to create the service. Failed to execute (Publish Service Definition).   This was due to some parameters in my Modelbuilder model that were set as Constant values in the result of the geoprocessing history, and shared as a web tool. When you right-click the model>edit metadata, the item description page appears. In there, there is a section where you can specify the syntax of the model parameters by providing a dialog explanation for them. I was providing a dialog explanation for the 'output_gdb' (a workspace variable), the 'excel_csv_output' (a folder variable), and 'analysis data' (a folder variable). My theory is that by doing this, it was forcing the staged web tool to try to copy these workspace and folders to the datastore, but the directory structure was not available in the datastore. The web tool would maybe then no longer use the default workspaces and folders in the datastore. I was able to publish successfully once I removed the dialog description for these workspaces and folders.   ... View more

I'm thinking that one may want to make one spatial query layer for each geometry column in the table. As a result, one would have the same number of layers representing that table as the number of geometry columns. Just in case, here is how we can query for the spatial columns in a table that's not registered with the geodatabase: https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/manage-data/using-sql-with-gdbs/geometry-columns.htm   Relevant forum in qgis: https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/109599/how-to-display-a-table-with-more-than-one-geometry-column-in-qgis ...

The docs have this article: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/analysis/geoprocessing/share-analysis/00256-server-version-value-tool-value-does-not-have-new-parameter.htm Unfortunately, I am seeing on my end that it is not possible to not use the unsupported parameters, since they are used by default, and not anywhere I can specify them on the CalculateField tool. One alternative in case the ArcGIS Administrator does not have a plan to upgrade ArcGIS Enterprise is to downgrade ArcGIS Pro to the version compatible with the ArcGIS Server tool. Another alternative would be to convert the model to a a python script, and use UpdateCursor from arcpy's "Data Access" (da) module. https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/138492/calculate-field-management-not-working-within-customized-python-tool-in-arcgis ...

Thank you @curtvprice , This makes a lot of sense. I notice a scenario in which there are additional things that would affect the ability to set the element to intermediate data. Even a data element is 'truly intermeditate' as you have described above, if that intermediate element is connected downstream to both a tool that 'consumes' the dataset, and a tool that 'creates a layer view that points to the dataset', the option to set intermediate disappears. In my case, the output to the 'Copy Features' output was not able to be set as intermediate, even though it served as input to both the 'Table to Excel' (consumes the data) and 'Select Layer By Attribute' (makes a view of the data) GP tools. See the attached pictures of how the 'set intermediate' option appears once the downstream links are removed to the 'Select Layer By Attribute' gp tools. @RobBlash  According to your clip 2 above, that seems to be what is going on. @DanPatterson_Retired   I am able to set variable as intermediate in ArcGIS Pro 2.8.8 still. ...

If you have two polygons, 'A' and B', run the tabulate intersection tool. Suppose 'A' has zone fields you want to summarize with. The result will give you an output table that has the percent of the zone field in A that is covered with B. you can then join this output table back to the A feature class, keeping all target features, and sort on the joined object id to see all of the records where the joined attributes are null (i.e. null objectid's). This will tell you with A polygons had 0 coverage from the B polygons. https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/analysis/tabulate-intersection.htm ... View more

Seems like ArcPy is too big to fit into lambda restrictions: https://community.esri.com/t5/python-ideas/allow-arcpy-to-be-loaded-and-executed-through-aws/idi-p/1063441 There should be other alternatives to explore, such as AWS Fargate, or AWS Batch ... View more

@JonNordling1 , I believe if you use the checkOutextension function in the uploaded lambda script, it becomes a matter of access. If the aws environment where the lambda is deployed has port access to the license manager, it should be able to grab the license for the script. I have not verified this, but this are my thoughts on this. ... View more
