Regarding, "Way to set up a ‘role’ of users that are allowed to take ArcGIS Pro offline," if you are interested in seeing a mechanism developed for enabling specific users to take their ArcGIS Pro Named User license offline, then consider giving kudos to this ArcGIS Pro Idea: Allow specified AGOL users to take ArcGIS Pro licenses offline. ...

Only a small subset of our 11,000+ users need to be able to take their ArcGIS Pro Named User license offline. With "Prevent members from taking ArcGIS Pro offline" disabled, we end up with cases where users take their Named User license offline -- without a need to do so, nor an understanding of what they are doing -- and then they unexpectedly lose access to Pro and need help getting it back. As the number of our folks with a legitimate need for Pro offline is smaller, it would be great to have the per-user work be enabling a user's ability to take their Pro  license offline, rather than fixing access to Pro for users who accidentally take it offline but don't need to. ...

Would be nice to have such user-inactivity timeout capabilities supported directly in ArcGIS StoryMaps. In the meantime, since we display exhibit stories using kiosk mode in Chrome or Edge, we are using the Kiosk Extension plugin. It works great for scenario A, where you always want to reset the story to the top when the inactivity timeout period is reached.    ... View more

If you are completely rebuilding things, then you can script deauthorizing the Pro Single Use license prior to the rebuild. To silently return all licenses for Pro and extensions from the command line (running as an Administrator): "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\SoftwareAuthorizationPro.exe" -return all /s ...

I am curious as to what will happen for the ArcGIS Pro extensions listed below, which I believe continue to be part of the Education Institution Agreement. Will they also become part of the Professional Plus user type, or we will simply continue assigning them to all users as Add-on licenses under ArcGIS Pro extensions via New Member Defaults? Business Analyst Location Referencing StreetMap Premium North America Also, Data Interoperability is currently a Pro Extension we manage as such in New Member Defaults. It looks like it might become its own product, as it is listed outside of the Pro extensions in the second list? Does that imply how it is assigned in New Member Defaults will change from being a Pro extension to being on its own as an Add-on license, and we will need to assign that new license to all existing users, as well as updating New Member Defaults? Thanks for the guidance! ... View more

@MichaelKohler that functionality is only available after you have enabled credit allocations for your ArcGIS Online organization (see Enable credit budgeting.) Currently credit allocation functionality is off by default for new ArcGIS Online organizations. This Idea is about having it on by by default. ... View more

Is there a particular reason you need to add your GIF using an "Embed"? If not, then I would instead upload the GIF file directly as "Image or video" on your sidecar slide. ... View more

If you want to create a backup copy of your Field Maps data, and you have a laptop you have with you, then I would suggest following the first part of Access offline edits from ArcGIS Field Maps directly from an iOS or Android device. You can stop after you've copied your data from within Field Maps to a location on your laptop via iTunes, that's your backup. If your device ends up destroyed in the river, and you need to extract the data from your backup, then you can follow the rest of the steps in the doc. A similar workflow exists for backing up data from Quick Capture, and recovering it, if needed. See Export Orphaned Records from an iOS Device. ... View more

This would be very helpful, as the current workaround of using the ArcGIS API for Python can be quite complicated, especially if you are archiving interdependent content (e.g., a hosted feature layer used in a web map, a web map used in a StoryMap, a hosted feature layer view referenced by a widget in an Experience.) Using the API one can download most types of content, and store it as files outside of ArcGIS Online. Later, if needed, the files can be upload back to ArcGIS Online, and the content items reconstituted. The big hurdle, however, is having to walk all of the internal dependencies between the archived items. If there are no interdependencies, then you're done 🙂 Otherwise, the reconstituted items will have different item IDs than they originally had, so other archived content that references them needs to be updated to their new item IDs. (To help with the latter challenge, before downloading items, one can add a Tag to capture an item's current item ID for later mapping to its new item ID.) ... View more
