Whether I'm logged in or not, some user's avatars are showing as broken links.  When I am logged in, my own avatar in the top-right corner is showing as a broken link. It also shows a broken link on the Avatars tab when I go to my settings.  I have not changed my avatar in long time. ... View more

A variety of ArcGIS Online content is often combined into a final product. For example, feature layers into a web map, or a web map into an instant app. While each of the components needs to be shared in a way that the target audience has access to them individually in ArcGIS Online, the overall goal is to have the audience view the final product, the web map or instant app. We would like the ability to add an optional redirect to a content item, which would redirect users to the intended final product under certain conditions. For example, for an instant app, users attempting to view an individual feature layer used in a web map used in an instant app, or for the web map itself, could be redirected to the instant app. As one might be collaborating on the content with others, the redirect would only be honored under certain conditions. For example, if the user attempting to view an item with a redirect was not logged in, then they would be redirected. Or, if they were logged in, then the would be able to view the item if they were a member of a Shared Update group with which the item was shared; otherwise, they would be redirected to the intended content. The owner of the item, when logged in, would always be able to view the individual content. StoryMaps, Dashboards, Experiences, and other aggregate content types would benefit from this redirect capability. Why is this capability needed? When creating aggregate content, authors may reuse content names. For example, in the case of an instant app, the feature layer and web map used in an instant app, and the app itself, may all have the same or similar names. So users searching for the the instant app by name in ArcGIS Online on an ArcGIS Hub will see all three listed in their results, and the instant app may not be at the top of the list. Also, if the user is not familiar with ArcGIS, they many not know which link is the one they were intended to open. By setting a redirect on the feature layer and web map, the author would ensure the user ends up viewing the instant app, no matter which link they clicked. It could also help with searching if an item with redirects to it was listed higher in the search results than items which redirect to it.   ... View more

I would like a way to identify which users are responsible for Data Store Resource usage. The graph currently available to ArcGIS Online Administrators shows over all usage in an organization, however, I would like to be able to break that data down, and identify which individual users are driving that usage. In a large organization it is not feasible for Administrators to ask individual users what they are doing. Rather, Administrators need a way to identify users who are responsible for significant levels of Data Store Resource usage. This would enable Administrators to contact such users and discuss whether their usage is appropriate and/or if alternatives need to be explored, such as upgrading the data store, moving the data elsewhere, etc. ...

[Posting for other who might run into this issue and need a workaround.] When creating a Map tour by uploading geotagged photos, it is not straightforward to manually adjust the location of images with overlapping location data. One has to hide the slides for overlapping tour points in order to be able select, delete, and re-position the pin for the tour point who's location you want to update. If you don't hide the other slides, then when you click on Edit location, you will not be able select the current slide's point. How would you end up with overlapping geotagged photos? One example is taking photos of objects or documents for which you want to make a Map tour, and you take the photos in your office. When you upload the images, they will initially all be located on top of each other in the location of your office, if you had geotagging turned on when you took the photos. Your goal, however, is to edit the locations on the objects' or documents' slides, after you've initially created the Map tour. In order to update the points in your Map tour: Hide all of the Map tour slides with overlapping locations, except the one you want to move. Now when you click on "Edit location", and you will be able to select the point's location, delete it, and set the correct location. Unhide the next overlapping tour point, and repeat the steps above. Alternatively, you can strip the geolocation information from your photos before you upload them. Then you can manually place each one via Edit location, rather than having to deal with initially overlapping locations. ... View more

When assigning a custom role through New member defaults, we would like the custom role to be able to have the privileges for “Generate API keys” (portal:user:generateApiTokens) and “Assign privileges to OAuth 2.0 applications” (portal:user:assignPrivilegesToApps). These are not admin privileges, which has been cited as the reason other privileges, like the ability to create Shared Update groups or link to SAML groups, are not compatible with New member defaults. This would enable our users to manage their own apps’ authentication and privileges. Our current workaround is to have a schedule task that checks for new users. When it finds a new user that was assigned a custom role without those privileges by New member defaults, it then changes their role to a custom role that includes that privilege (and other privileges that are not compatible with New member defaults.) (This is related to Make ‘create group with update capabilities’ a non-admin privilege.) ... View more
