The issue is fixed for me at 2.8.2. However, at least on ArcGIS Pro 2.8.2, do not upgrade the pandas package above version 1.2.3. Any pandas version higher than 1.2.3 causes the arcgis package to fail upgrading from 1.8.5 to 1.9.0. If arcgis 1.9.0 is already installed then every Notebook will throw an error in ArcGIS Pro when you try to run the Notebook, until you roll pandas back to 1.2.3.

@ChrisFoxGlad to hear that. The Address Data Management solution has been tremendously helpful to us for managing our addresses.

Thank you for the suggestion. I have also tried converting some of our named user ArcGIS Pro licenses to single use and applying them to individual devices for some of my users that are off network the most. I hope someday ArcGIS Pro licensing with Enterprise can work like it does with ArcGIS Online.

Thank you for the recommendation and I'll mark it as the solution, but that is not a great solution for us. One of our reasons for going with Enterprise years ago was to take advantage of LDAP integration for user sign ins to keep things as simple for our users as possible. I understand ArcGIS Online now has SAML support, but we do not have support on our end. Are there any plans to have Enterprise act as the proxy between License Manager and ArcGIS Pro? It seems to me that would make more sense than the current method since Enterprise is already talking to License Manager to allow admins to assign ArcGIS Pro licenses through the Enterprise web UI. Another option could be to provide a "web adaptor" for License Manager to hide the internal port and host name and provide other security features required for an internet exposed service. Thank you for taking the time to chat with me about this.

If a remote worker is not on our local network and not using a VPN, when they try to use ArcGIS Pro they get the Enterprise sign in page and after signing in they get an error message saying the License Manager could not be reached. It was once explained to me that is because ArcGIS Pro attempts to make a separate connection to the License Manager and it is looking for the PortNumber@FQDN of License Manager that is provided by Enterprise. That makes sense because as soon as I use a VPN to connect to our network ArcGIS Pro gets the license and works, but if I disconnect the VPN I loose the license and get the warning that I have 60 minutes to save my work before ArcGIS Pro closes. Reconnect with the VPN and ArcGIS Pro is happy again. If there is a way to have Enterprise be the proxy to the License Manager for ArcGIS Pro I would appreciate knowing how to set that up. We are running Enterprise 10.8.1, License Manager 2020.1, and ArcGIS Pro 2.7. Tomorrow I will be upgrading everything to the latest version so we will be on Enterprise 10.9, License Manager 2021.0, and ArcGIS Pro 2.8. Will that make a difference?

They sign into Enterprise to license ArcGIS Pro. My understanding is ArcGIS Pro makes one connection to Enterprise to handle the authentication of the named user and check to see if they are allotted an ArcGIS Pro license. Then, if authentication is successful, ArcGIS Pro makes a separate connection to License Manager to get the license. I am trying to find out how to safely let remote workers use ArcGIS Pro licensed through Enterprise without requiring a VPN connection to our network. However, I do not want to expose my License Manager to the internet if that means anyone who finds the open port can use our licenses.

A little background first. I have an ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1 deployment that is accessible over the internet through a web adaptor. A problem that we have had for years is that our portal is accessible via the internet but whenever any of my users opens ArcGIS Pro off network they get an error that the ArcGIS License Manager (ALM) is not accessible, which is expected because the ports for ALM are blocked from the internet by the firewall. Is it safe to expose the ALM to the internet so remote workers have access to ArcGIS Pro without having to use a VPN? If I get my system admin to expose the ALM port to the internet, will anybody who finds the port be able to access our licenses managed through ALM? Does Esri have a way or documentation on how to proxy the ALM connection? Could ArcGIS Pro use a standard URL that is provided by a proxy to request a license. Then have the proxy connect to ALM get the license and have the proxy pass that back to ArcGIS Pro. I wish Esri would just add that functionality to ArcGIS Portal so that ArcGIS Pro, Drone2Map, etc. just make one call to ArcGIS Portal and ArcGIS Portal handles both authenticating the user and passing the license from ALM to ArcGIS Pro.

Will ArcGIS Pro licensing work with ArcGIS Enterprise like it does with ArcGIS Online? My users can access our ArcGIS Enterprise deployment with an internet connection but to use ArcGIS Pro they have to start a VPN session to connect to our network because the ArcGIS License Manager is not exposed to the internet. I would love to see ArcGIS Pro just talking to ArcGIS Enterprise and ArcGIS Enterprise acting as a proxy to ArcGIS License Manager for ArcGIS Pro.

Thank you! I went back to 2.8.0 and that fixed the issue.

After installing the patch for ArcGIS Pro 2.8.1, every time I launch an ArcGIS Pro project that has an existing Python Notebook the active Python environment changes back to arcgispro-py3. The only thing that changed was installing the 2.8.1 patch. I have tried reinstalling ArcGIS Pro and cloning to different locations, but as soon as I open that notebook the active environment changes back to arcgispro-py3. The notebook previously used a cloned environment with no issues.

Glad to hear that the new domain is working. Is it the domain that will not delete or an attribute field that is using the old domain? If you are trying to delete the domain, have you tried the Domain Usage tool to see if there are any feature classes still trying to use the old domain?

I know this topic has come up several times ever since Vector Tiles were release and that there is a enhancement request regarding the issue (ENH-000098440), but I cannot get labels for road features to draw consistently at all scale levels. Same settings between scale levels for the labels besides font sizes and minimum repeat valves, but some levels the labels work fine, some levels only some of the label classes draw, and several levels show no labels. I have read the guidelines at https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/map-authoring/labeling-in-vector-tiles.htm but I am still having issues. The issue of all road labels missing at scales 9,028 through 282 is the most confusing issue. Are there any other guidelines for labeling vector tiles from Esri?

The response that I received from Esri was the production version of the new Map Viewer will be available as part of ArcGIS Enterprise (AGE) 10.9.1. AGE 10.9 is shipping with and locked to the December 2020 version of the Map Viewer Beta and AGE 10.8.1 has the March 2021 version of the Map Viewer Beta available as a separate install. Here is a link to the post about the production version of the new Map Viewer being available at AGE 10.9.1: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-questions/did-the-new-map-viewer-and-dashboard-apps-make-it-into-arcgis/m-p/1055212#M30106

Esri just answered the question about the Map Viewer Beta in a blog post: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-enterprise/announcements/map-viewer-beta-in-arcgis-enterprise-10-9/ ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1 has the Map Viewer Beta March 2021 edition and ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 has the Map Viewer Beta December 2020 edition and will not be updated. So the final version of the new Map Viewer found in ArcGIS Online is not available for any version of ArcGIS Enterprise at this time.

I think it would be useful to have ArcGIS Pro query a connection, be it portal connection or geodatabase connection, to determine the connection's version and only present options and functionality up to the level that the connection supports. I would like to have some kind of backwards compatibility built into ArcGIS Pro if it is going to keep being release ahead of a compatible version of ArcGIS Enterprise. Often ArcGIS Pro has a new release that targets a unrelease version of 10.x or geodatabase. If you try to use that new version with a 10.x or geodatabase release that is below the expected version there are often issues because ArcGIS Pro is trying to do something that ArcGIS Enterprise or the geodatabase does not support. A great example of this has been the releases of ArcGIS Pro 2.7 in December 2020 and ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 in May 2021. So from December 2020 to May 2021 there was no compatible version of ArcGIS Enterprise that you could use with ArcGIS Pro 2.7. I tried using ArcGIS Pro 2.7 with ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1 but ran into a few issues that only resolved by going back to ArcGIS Pro 2.6.
