I would like to create an analysis view that has the logs of all my different systems in one place. Unfortunately, the Components Logs will only display the component ID, code, level, and logged at. If you look at the browser web traffic you can see that the messages are in the request response, but the data view does not provide a way to add the log messages. Please provide a way to surface the log messages in data views. Thank you.

I am also a team of one in the IT Department of the City of Kerrville for the last 13 years. To start with, I still struggle to get my coworkers more engaged in using GIS for themselves, but here are some things that have helped. We use ArcGIS Enterprise (AGE) internally and use ArcGIS Online (AGO) for public facing GIS. I used to do in person trainings that were just open for anyone to show up. Those were not very effective in attendance or information retention. I switched to doing more targeted in person trainings for specific workflows. Switching from desktop GIS to web GIS seems to have cut down on the requests for training on the basics of using our GIS. Most of my users do not want to create their own GIS layers. They view that as my job and I am still trying to change that mentality. The item reports in AGE and AGO are a great place to start to see what all clutter there might be. We are still working on developing a GIS governance policy to define how we are going to consistently manage our data. It did not seem important at first but now with many years of data to go through I wish I had created the policy before we uploaded anything to AGE. We heavily utilize attribute rules, domains, contingent values, and scripts ensure consistency wherever possible. For enterprise geodatabase data I would publish different services for different audiences that only exposes what that audience needs to edit. It is even easier with hosted feature views. Setting up AGE years ago greatly expanded the reach of GIS to my organization because it is so much easier to use than ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro. For people that just view our GIS I tried to keep things as simple as possible. I created department apps (Web App Builder and now Experience Builder) that is tailored to what is important on a daily basis to that department. Adding the Add Data widget to that made power users happy. Then I created a "Featured Maps & Apps" group and set that group to show on our AGE homepage. I would have to go back and review the permissions on how I got it so people only see their departments apps on the homepage. One thing that I would add is that if you want self-service GIS to become the norm I would recommend on getting buy-in from administration. Change to self-service here has worked the best when the administration is driving the change instead of me.

I am trying to create an analysis view that shows me the past 24 hours of logs from ArcGIS Portal, ArcGIS Server, and ArcGIS Data Store in one place. When I use the Components Log resource I get the Component ID, Logged At, Code, and Level fields, but I cannot get the UI to display the Message field. When I check the web traffic I can see the Message field and its values in the query result. How do I expose the Message field in the Edit Dataview dialog?

It is my understanding the 'Add and update records (read access enabled)' is for when you want people to be able to change a submitted survey. Which is okay when the survey is not public and you do not care if your organization members see the results. In the solution I mentioned above the survey needs to be 'Only add new records'. You will need to make a few changes for the My GIS Request dashboards to work properly. You will need to modify the My GIS Requests dashboard to point to GIS_Activities_public using ArcGIS Online Assistant to swap out the item IDs. Update the GIS_Activities_public view to include the Comments table and be sure to set a filter for "Visible to Requester = Yes". The GIS_Activities_public should not be shared with the public despite the name. In the My GIS Requests dashboard in the Category Selector Click Edit in the layer section Change line 9 to usernames['features'][0] = {attributes : {username: user['fullName'], blank: '.'}} Update the filter action to target the Name field under Request List With those changes the My GIS Requests dashboard will filter the requests based on the name provided in the pocname field which you will need since the createdby field is now blank because it is a public survey. I hope this helps.

The read only connection should be pointing to sde.DEFAULT. That is how it works on my read only connections and the Versioning tools in ArcGIS Pro are greyed out. You mention geoprocessing tasks. If the branch versioned data is being used as read only input in the tasks, then you should be able to use the Enterprise Geodatabase connection without issue. Only editing requires you to go through the feature service.

We have been running ArcGIS Enterprise 11.5 since June on Windows Server, and we have not encountered that particular issue. We are using ArcGIS Web Adapters for our reverse proxies. It sounded like when you access the internal URL the issue does not occur and the issue only happens from the external URL. That to me sounds like the issue is in the reverse proxy.

I am sorry to hear that you are locked out of your data now. Esri did announce the change would be happening for new and renewed accounts in June 2025 and I want to say I got another email sometime in the fall. I wonder if it has to do with the ArcGIS Online licensing changes and Professional including more software than Esri would like. Dropping it down to Basic aligns ArcGIS Pro with the Creator license which is what a Personal license used to include. But all of that is just me guessing. It was fun to show my kids some of the advanced things GIS can do while it lasted. This also reminds me that I need to renew my personal license as well.

Are you using a ArcGIS Web Adaptor or your own reverse proxy? I ran into a similar issue with ArcGIS Monitor when I tried to create my own reverse proxy and I got a regex expression wrong. I do not think this would be the issue, but have you installed Portal for ArcGIS 11.5 Web Applications Patch? https://support.esri.com/en-us/patches-updates/2025/portal-for-arcgis-11-5-web-applications-patch

It is not possible to create a join in ArcGIS Online through the UI without using the Join Features tool. The current options are to use ArcGIS Pro to publish the layers with a relationship class defined or to use the REST API to create a relationship between two layers that are in the same feature service. I posted an ArcGIS Idea about this topic a few years ago for ArcGIS Enterprise and it is "Under Consideration". https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-ideas/ability-to-create-and-manage-relationship-classes/idi-p/1008648

@StephenKing3 one thing you can try is to add a text field to your survey, have it ready only and required, and set the constraint to a GUID. Then update the link to your survey URL to include "?field:surveyid=<GUID>" at the end of the link. Do not include the "?" if it is already in the URL. You could even go a step further, add "?field:surveyid=<GUID>&encodeUrlParams=true", and reload the page to get an encoded URL so your users cannot change the GUID. I recommend changing the pocname and pocemail fields to not auto populate because it will be blank for your viewer users. Once you have the URL with the suveyid included, make sure you set the GIS Service Center and Service Portal hub pages to not be public so the public cannot access the URL with the surveyid. The survey must be set to public for this to work. When a viewer license clicks the survey link, they should be taken to the survey form but not signed in. That is what happens on ArcGIS Enterprise 11.5. To recap: Add a surveyid field to the survey in Survey123 Connect that is read only, required, and has a constraint set to a specific GUID Change pocname and pocemail to be required, remove the readonly flag, and remove the pulldata calculation Set the GIS Service Center and Service Portal pages to not be public Add to the end of the survey URL on the Service Portal page "?field:surveyid=<GUID>" Make the survey public (Optional) Periodically change the GUID in the constraint rule and URL for improved security Here is what I have in Survey123 Connect for one of our surveys. I removed the GUID so you will need to enter your own. I found constraint rules do not work if the field is hidden, so do not hide the surveyid field. type name label hint guidance_hint appearance required required_message readonly default calculation constraint constraint_message relevant choice_filter repeat_count media::audio media::image bind::type bind::esri:fieldType bind::esri:fieldLength text surveyid Survey ID yes yes .= "<Enter a GUID Here>" Survey ID Required esriFieldTypeString 255

@Cplagge_Brd I created a task that has the user first select the primary address for the property, the tasks copies the attributes from the primary address, the user adds the points for the secondary addresses, the task pastes the attributes from the primary to all the secondaries, and then the user then updates the unit type and unit IDs of the secondary addresses. They do they by selecting all the secondary addresses and setting the unit type and any other common attributes, but then they still have to manually enter the unit IDs. Creating a task like that saves some time but does not auto assign the unit IDs.

@kurtia thank you for the example code. I used to use folder['title'] in my scripts and now that no longer works. Apparently folder.name is the way to do it now.

Please add a UI/UX to allow users to import coordinates from another item in the portal. This would save a lot of time when trying to make extents consistent between items such as a feature layer, web map, and web app.

It would be very helpful if the bulk publishing process would check the metadata of layers being published and use the extent from the metadata to set the extent of the item being created. This would need the ability to convert coordinates from local coordinate systems to Web Mercator coordinates. This would save us a lot of time because right now I have to manually set the extent of all items published from bulk publishing because it sets the extent to the default whole world.
