web.config is human readable, you should open in Notepadd++ and see what it says.

The cost savings is related to Viewer subscriptions; they are included with Enterprise Portal; while in AGOL Viewer is about $150 per seat. Just another comment about licensing, remember you can assign extensions to Creator seats. This means instead for purchasing Professional Plus it may be more cost effective to purchase Professional and just the extensions you need. This also applies to Creator seats, where I can assign them 3D Analyst or Spatial Analyst extensions (if I have them in my account).

Also recall that ArcGIS Pro can be used with more than one Portal or ArcGIS Online organization. For example, I can startup Pro against AGOL to get my license, then 'sign-out' and sign into an Enterprise Portal or different AGOL organization.

Did you install the Json file that contains your licenses onto your Portal to provision user types? I see your Admin user account has no User Type defined, it should show Creator.

If you think you will be digitizing several maps (e.g., a map series) that have the same symbology you should consider creating an editing template before you start. This will allow you to set default values for point, line, polygon data types which will simplify adding attributes to your digital data down the road. In addition, if you don't have access to a traditional digitizing table (that were ubiquitous in 1990-2010) consider scanning the document then use heads-up digitizing. see: Introduction to editing templates—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

One option we are considering is just editing the ArcGIS Pro msi and change the signature that it is looking for from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\Clients\{F3017226-FE2A-4295-8BDF-00C3A9A7E4C5} to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\Clients This would mean the install would still look for and require WebView2 -but it would not be depended on finding a specific GUID.

We have deployed ArcGIS Pro 3.5 to 900 computers, of these about 800 installed without issue with the remaining 100 failing. Message shown is the 'Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime (x64) version 117 or later...you must also install WebView2 Runtime as per-machine. " We are currently at WebView 148.0.3856.84 -the current version. On checking the package, ESRI is looking specifically for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\Clients\{F3017226-FE2A-4295-8BDF-00C3A9A7E4C5} and HKEY_LOCAL_USER\ Software\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\Clients\{F3017226-FE2A-4295-8BDF-00C3A9A7E4C5}. In the ones that fail the GUID shown is in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE is present. Have anyone else seen this issue at this scale? Given that 10% of our machines have failed, it is more than just a 'bad' install of WebView2 (which the March 20, 2026 release of v148.0.3856.72 was, replace by v78 on March 23rd ;-)). Insite's are welcome.

Gordon, ArcGIS Pro can be licensed as single-use, concurrent-use, or named-user. If named user you would need to connect to a Portal or an ArcGIS Online Organization (which you actually are entitled to for free because you own a current version of ArcGIS Server under _maintenance_ -right? ;-)). To obtain a license you would obtain it from support.esri.com or from you My.Esri.Com website, again if you actually own portal you should have an account on that website. From there you can download software updates and obtain your license codes. Since your system does not talk to ESRI you can not use the auto-authorization methods. Rather you need to get the ECP code (looks like this: ESU440991234, so you can manually enter them during the authorization process. In Pro uncheck the auto login to Online checkbox when you see the pop-up and go to settings | licensing and set the required information.

We ran into a similar issue with updating machines for ArcGIS Pro 3.4 to 3.5, the solution as stated above is to download and install the newest available version of Microsoft Edge WebView2 runtime (x64) 'as administrator'. However, of NOTE is on March 12, 2026 Microsoft released an update for 80 issues, then then released a new version on March 20th and March 23rd. Usually they only have 1 release per month. This means the 20th edition 146.0.3856.72 had a significant 'problem'. If you have this installed version, update to build 146.0.3865.78 or higher then retry your ArcGIS Pro installation. To check your version in regEdit see HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\ClientState and look in each subkey. Version 78 has a subkey of . \ClientState\{F3017226-FE2A-4295-8BDF-00C3A9A7E4C5}

Hello, The Professional Plus user type was announced in June 2024 and ArcGIS Pro 3.3 was released on May 07, 2024. ArcGIS Pro 3.3 is the earliest version that I would expect the new user type to work with 'seamlessly'. In regards to your other question, yes ArcGIS Pro 3.4 and 3.5 can be used with a Portal or AGOL site at different versions. I have used those versions running ArcGIS Enterprise 11.5 and v12 (and Pro 3.3 with Enterprise 11.4). ArcGIS Pro 3.0 SP 6 is the last release of 3.0 and is retired -it was issued in August 2023 so I would not expect support for Professional Plus.

Take a look at this older post: How exactly do you make a .stylex file ? - Esri Community

ArcGIS Pro supports Graphics to Features command for basic graphic features (e.g., point, line, polygon). You could probably try the same for 'text' elements but you would most likely get a point for the lower left of the first character of the sentence (i.e., you won't get the text string as a set of lines for example). Best alternative would be to look into converting the graphic text into annotation.

My first question is why do you want the field to be TEXT in the database, could you not have it be an INT then just convert it in code when needed? Secondly, you did not say the database type, but if it is in SQL or SQLite you can add an autoincrement field to the table. Copy code CREATE TABLE users ( my_new_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, username TEXT NOT NULL, email TEXT NOT NULL ); Auto-increment fields cannot be updated manually unless explicitly allowed. If you delete rows, the auto-increment counter does not reset unless you manually reset it. Use BIGINT instead of INT if you expect very large numbers. you can set a 'start' number for the sequence as well. an autoincrement field DOES NOT have to be a primary key (or a key at all)

ESRI is requiring the migrating all users to Named or Single use licensing, in the named user arena they need to provide a no cost subscription management solution. The solution should provide admins the ability to estimate actual subscription usage and license Pro usage. This is needed to justify organizational purchases.
