Unfortunately, I was informed in a staff meeting yesterday to drop working on this. Our entire IT department is going to move to a new help desk system and the IT Director just wants to configure the new software to handle GIS related requests. Thank you for the responses and I was really looking forward to moving to the GIS Request Management solution. If GIS is ever moved out from under IT I will definitely be coming back to this solution. ... View more

I eventually just manually reviewed all the maps we had. I never did find an automatic way to do it. ... View more

Has the status of this changed? This was a feature in ArcGIS Monitor 10.8.1 and was very helpful to get an email alert X number of days out from a certificate expiring. It would also be great to see this in a dashboard. ... View more

This is a great example of why solutions should be decoupled from ArcGIS Enterprise (AGE) releases. It would be great if new solutions or updated solutions were made available outside of AGE releases. That way changes like this could be pushed to older AGE versions. Then have the something similar to the cloud version of Solutions that blocks the install if functionality is missing in AGE. Even better would be to design solutions that are also designed so that any solution can be deployed, deploy only the compatible components, and have a list of components that will not be installed and explain why. Exceptions to this could be solutions like the Watch Center solution where the core purpose of the solution is not possible without the missing components and deployments of those apps could be blocked (still explain why it is blocked in the UI). ...

@TianWen any update on the filter by extent coming to the table widget in Experience Builder. ArcGIS WebApp Builder was just retired, and I moved most of our main apps to Experience Builder only for my users to point out that this functionality is not there in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3. The recommended work around is not great for our use case because my users alternate between viewing all the records and filtering to the extent when needed. Using the map trigger makes it always on with no way for the user to turn off. ... View more

So WebApp Builder was retired before the filter by extent functionality was added to the Experience Builder table widget? I just moved our main maps to Experience Builder, and this was one of the first things brought to my attention. Just encase someone from Esri reads this, the extent changes work around is not practical because my users used to toggle the filter on as needed. They do not want the filter by extent on all the time with no way for them to turn off. ... View more

I believe this is because of how Esri takes feature services offline. When a feature service is taken offline the user is actually taking a version of the data offline and not the base data. Since the db_datareader role can only read and not write, an error is thrown because the account does not have permission to write the replica to take offline. Or if you data is a traditional version then db_datareader cannot create the new tables for the replica. Esri's way of handling offline/sync has long been a problem for me. I had a similar problem when I wanted to make a feature service published from a SQL Server view table be part of a distributed collaboration with ArcGIS Online. Even though the data the view referenced was setup for offline/sync use, the view's feature service could not be setup for sync because ArcGIS kept trying to create a replica off of the view table and throwing an error. ...

Three things come to mind: Any time Esri updates ArcGIS Online (AGO) I would recommend clearing your browser cache. Sometimes changes to AGO make some cached files no longer compatible with the website and you get odd behavior.  You could try saving a copy of the experience and see if the copy also has the issue. This option could be risky, but you could try using the ArcGIS Online Assistant to remove the Measure Widget you added by editing the experience's JSON. Before changing anything, I would highly recommend copying the existing JSON as is and save the JSON to a file on your computer. That way if removing the widget does not fix the issue you can put back the original JSON for Esri Tech Support to troubleshoot against. Those steps have help me resolve issues with ArcGIS Enterprise content in the past, I would assume they would work for ArcGIS Online as well. I do wish Esri would provide a way to download a copy of items that would allow users to have a backup before making changes to critical items. Then if something goes wrong you just upload the item package as a new item or, even better, have a way to overwrite the original item. ArcGIS Online really needs some built-in backup functionality across the whole platform to be honest. ... View more
