We found that in our old SOP to create our address locator we used/linked the X and Y fields.  When we didn't put them in, as they are not required, it worked!  Our thought was that it was confusing it with lat/longs but our data is in StatePlane.  Honestly didn't dig much further into the reasoning once we found something that worked, we ran with it.   ...

While I don't like the answer, I appreciate your quick reply. 😣 ... View more

I am having this very issue today.  I know over a year later.  Shooting in the dark here - did you ever get this resolved?  I have 2 Esri cases open right now.  One about intermittent layers dropping from our web services since upgrading to 11.3 last week and today we are getting this a bunch.  Esri AGOL team thinks it's related to my server (delayed reaction? a week and a half later).  I'm getting nowhere fast though. ...

Just wanted to update this thread with a workaround that we are using.  Our issue was that internal users were having issues logging in since it wasn't prompting them for our organization's login when they clicked the basic Experience Builder link.  We found that if you add /org=orgshortname to the end of the link this solved our issues.   ...

I see that this thread is old but I also have this issue.  Was a resolution found?  I have an expression giving a value to each record that has a confidential flag to read "CONFIDENTIAL".  This is in the popups and also in the export of the public notification. The popup shows white space beneath the rest of the mailing data (which still bugs me slightly) but the export shows "null" for each record that is not confidential.  The export (CSV) is extra ugly as it has the header name of expr0 rather than the name that I gave it when creating the Arcade expression.  The same map is used in the old Web AppBuilder application with the Public Notification widget and it does not show "null" for each address label even in the CSV export. ...

I've found using operating system authentication is useful for this. We use A/D groups: I have one for Read only access and others for departmental editing rights.  The connection file (.sde) can be transferred between users and it works with just their login.  They will know their password, but they don't use it when building a connection file with operating system authentication.  For example, Sally is in the Utilities department so she is in the GISDB_Read and the GISDB_UtilityEditor A/D groups.  In the GIS database the groups are given rights on each layer/table/dataset.  Sally's connection file can be called GISDBAccess.sde for instance and it can be copied from her profile to Jim's profile on his PC.  When Jim connects to the database Jim's connection is using the Operating System authentication for his Windows account and he will only have the rights that his user has based on the A/D groups he's been assigned to.  I hope that makes sense and helps.  You can reach out if you have any follow up questions, [email protected]. ...

I need this TODAY for creating user training for Field Maps.  Would sure make it easier than my current process of doing a screen recording and sending it to my computer and then playing it on my screen and voicing over it in a Microsoft Stream session. ... View more

We are also in the boat of needing this like today.  We build many internal apps and would like to place all links on a SharePoint page but for those not already logged into AGOL, they do not get our login page rather they need to know the org URL to type in, which is not very user friendly and not helping in our transition away from Web AppBuilder. ...

Not sure mine is the exact same issue but I just built an address locator in ArcGIS Pro (3.2.2) with the hopes of turning this into our geocoding service (previously built in ArcCatalog).  Using the Locate tool in ArcGIS Pro on my new locator finds results, however zooms me into the ocean, roughly 150 miles west and 350 miles south of where I should be.  I am using data from our database in Florida West State Plane projection - the same data that our old (ArcCatalog) locator points to.  Did anyone find a fix? ...

Still need this!  I like how dynamic the hub page is but this requirement on our end is making us look for alternative ways to link and deliver our GIS maps and apps. ... View more

Hi Kim.  I attached the script below in response to Royce's request too.   ... View more

Hi Royce, my apologies for not replying sooner - I missed the email for this one.  I've attached the script below.  The MXD settings for symbology, etc. stay through to the APRX file fine.  You will find that you need to change custom label expressions to use Arcade to get them to display properly in ArcGIS Online.  I'm thinking that this is what you are experiencing with your web app query too possibly.  Good luck to you. ...

Hi Royce, I'm a bit late to this and don't offer exact answers but I am also in your shoes with upgrading our services to use Pro runtime since upgrading our server to 10.9.1.  I found the same thing - no updated working map file.  Here's a list of what I've found/run into: I did get a handy script put together to convert all MXDs in a directory to APRXs.  I'm willing to share with anyone interested. I have been upgrading services as changes have been requested by overwriting them with an APRX.   I've been getting "SEVERE" errors in my logs and Esri Support has suggested that my overwriting/upgrade approach may cause that and they've also linked me to a few bugs.  These bugs seem to only happen on my services that use the Shared Instance type.  My solution for now is to make them all dedicated but this is not desired as Shared instance types are supposed to be a perk of the Pro Runtime services. Lastly, as you probably already figured out, once you go Pro you can't go back.  There's no way to overwrite a Pro Runtime service with a MXD - you will get an error.  The only way to do this is to delete the Pro service and recreate it with a MXD naming it the same.  Good luck to you. ...

Oh-boy.  I'm following this old thread too now.  Just upgraded to 10.9.1 and am slowly migrating services to ArcGIS Pro runtime.  Those that have been upgraded and set to "Shared instance pool" (isn't that supposed to be a perk of ArcGIS Pro runtime?) are throwing these "SEVERE" errors for us too.  I'm looking to rid us of errors and get everything happy before upgrading to 11.  I feel late to the game but then again I don't feel so alone in this error. ...

Hi Derek, welcome to the wonderful world of GIS!  I'd also be glad to share my experiences.  [email protected]  Initial thoughts...a great place to start is to meet with others that use GIS in your city and find out what they need.  Some departments may already know what they need, others may not have the resources, so meeting with those directors and finding out what their visions are is also helpful.  Find out what your County is doing with GIS.  Reach out to your Esri rep, they can help get you connected if you don't know your neighbors and they may also know what your neighboring cities, counties are doing.  You may be able to work with them rather than reinventing the wheel.  ...
