Please make the functionality in ArcGIS Online to rearrange fields in the attribute table. I have clients using Collector, and they requested a few new fields be added to the attribute table for additional data collection. The logical place to put the "Total Insect Count" field is after all the individual count columns. However, the Total Count field is one of the first columns in the table since it was added when I created the feature a few months ago. In order to transfer all the data to a new "Total Count" field in the correct location, I have to copy the data over. This means all the Weekly Count views I made using the original Total Count field have to be redone using the new Total Count field.

Thanks for your input as always. I updated my question per your recommendations.

import arcpy import os arcpy.env.workspace = r"C:\Users\natb0\OneDrive - drycreekeng.com\GIS\GIS\Data\Dry_Creek\TerrAvion_Imagery\062319" input_folder = arcpy.env.workspace for p in os.listdir(input_folder): p.replace("CIR_4326", "RGB_062319") p.replace("TIRS_T_4326", "Temp_062319") p.replace("NDVI_NDVI_2_4326", "NDVI_062319") print p‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ I have to download 48 images from a website weekly, and I would like to write a script to rename the files to something more user friendly and understandable. For each farm field (16 fields total), I download 3 images (#farmfield_TIRS_T_4326.tiff, #farmfield_CIR_4326.tiff, and #farmfield_NDVI_NDVI_2_4326.tiff), where TIRS = temperature, CIR = infrared, and NDVI is NDVI. For each file name, I would like to replace "TIRS_T_4326" with "Temp_062319", "CIR_4326" with "RGB_062319", and "NDVI_NDVI_2_4326" with "NDVI_062319". When I run the code, it runs fine but the file names do not change. So Im guessing .replace is the wrong argument. Does anyone know what I should use instead? My goal is to do a find a replace on the file names.

My client wants to download shapefiles to import into Tableau software. I have a few clients that use Tableau, and I don't want them to have to send me emails every time they want to download a shapefile for use in another program.

Update: I opened some feature layers using ArcPro 2.3.3 and successfully exported them to a shapefile, which I then successfully uploaded as a new feature to AGOL using my client's credentials. So Im guessing that exporting a feature layer to a shapefile in AGOL is a bug.

Hi Egge-Jan, I did double-click on individual records and I still don't see any points on the map. I am using ArcGIS desktop 10.7. My problem really has two parts, and I submitted a second question for part 2. The real reason I want to download the layer is that I created this layer for a client to use with Collector out in the field. We discovered that I am the only one that can create a drop-down list from data entries in an attribute table field in AGOL. I want my client to also have control of the layer and be able to "lock" the field as a drop-down list instead of always having to email me and request that I lock it or unlock it so she can add new data entries to the field. I havent been able to figure out how to copy a layer and share it with someone else so they own it and can manipulate it in AGOL. Therefore, I figured if I download the shapefile and upload it using my client's login credentials, it would be her layer.

I created a feature layer for a client for use in Collector. I would like my client to be able to create a list from the values in the Farm_ID field so they are a dropdown choice instead of having to manually type this ID in each time when looking at the feature layer in a web map. She has a Creator license. However, since I created the layer it seems I am the only one that can "lock" the Farm_ID field as a dropdown or "unlock" it so she can add new farm fields in. I've tried exporting the layer to a shapefile, then uploading the shapefile using her account to create a "new" layer, but that doesn't work at all. If I open the shapefile to view in ArcMap, the attribute table is populated but the data points don't show up. This also means the data points don't show up in the exported file-to-feature layer using her AGOL account.

I would like to download a feature layer (survey data point taken using Collector) for viewing in ArcGIS desktop. From the details page, I Export to shapefile, then download the shapefile to my computer. When I open the shapefile, the data is present in the attribute table but no points show up. I've tried projecting to a local projection and still nothing. Please help.

Thank you for your response Russel. I have had problems creating a group with the privileges you mention above because then I can't add members with lower permissions (like those that can view data but not edit it). Its been very frustrating.

As a consultant, I set up an AGOL account for an organization. I created a few web maps and feature layers that go with Survey123 and Collector to get them started. I gave Publisher status (the highest one, right?) to one of the organization's employees, assuming that she could take my layers and maps, and edit them to her needs. However, we have run into the following problems (so far)... 1. Only the creator of a web map can change the symbology of a feature within a web map. 2. Only the creator of a feature layer can change the attribute table field structure (like creating a pull-down list from a list of values in a field). It seems that the Admin role is to be hand-holder and master of all, but that is not what I want. I want to give members roles so that they can make changes and edit layers/maps as they need to. I really don't want to give her Admin privileges, but it seems that is what I must do. Also - isnt the point of groups so that members can share their data and maps with the groups? Am I missing something?

Hi David, I worked with ESRI to find a fix. See below for the steps to unpack tiles successfully on AGOL. It is a giant PITA but it works. I wish they had a simple streamlined solution. 1. Use the "Copy Raster" (Data Management) tool to make a copy of your raster in ESRI format. Make sure .tif is added to the end of the saved file. 2. Open a new mxd. 3. Add a description to the mxd in File--> Map Document Properties 4. Save mxd 5. Add in the copied raster and select the color symbology you want for your raster, if needed. 6. Use the Search toolbar for "Create map tile package" 7. In the Create map tile package tool, select the saved mxd and the level of detail you want. 8. Once it finishes, you can go into AGOL and upload the saved .tpk

I am trying to publish drone flight imagery analysis rasters to AGOL. I can upload a tile package from ArcGIS desktop 10.6.1 just fine to my AGOL account (size ~ 20 MB), but when I open the tile package content in AGOL and click Publish, nothing happens. I am the administrator for my organization, so that is not an issue. I have tried this with multiple rasters over the last few days, and have been unsuccessful. However, I was able to successfully publish rasters a few months ago so I know its not on my end. Thanks for any help or advice.

Hi everyone, Im new to Workforce and trying to learn it for a project presentation in a few days. I am trying to create a new project, but keep getting an error saying SSL is required. However, the folders for the project are created in my organization's content page. Do I have to run ArcGIS Enterprise to use Workforce? Thanks, natalie

I was able to get the Exploratory Regression tool to work seamlessly in ArcPro, so it must have something to do with Pandas and other python-based numerical programming tools being installed as part of ArcPro.
