Indeed, this would be useful.  Much like we can do with ADS (Azure Data Studio) or SSMS (SQL Server Management Studio). cheers, tim   ... View more

I'd love to generate a schema report in the form of an Entity Relationship Diagram - ERD.  If I recall right, Sparx Enterprise Architect can do it after importing a geodatabase XML Workspace Document.  It would be proper to right-click the GDB and say, "make an ERD" as PDF or HTML format.  Maybe there's already a tool for doing just that using the JSON or XLSX formats? Like time-back-way-back with, what was it - ArcCatalog and Visio?  https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/manage-data/geodatabases/documenting-your-geodatabase-design.htm    ... View more

@PaddyFurlong - Nice!  Maybe we can string that up with a little ModelBuilder thing to generalize the geometry for detailed polygons, export to JSON, then use the resulting graphic art in Power BI.  Ideally, the REST service would have a generalize capability built in, but it seems a bit more complex than that. ...

Thanks @SSWoodward.  I appreciate you checking ArcGIS Pro for us. I can never tell if what I'm dealing with when things don't work is an Esri bug or not.  Often, I'll report a bug and get initial responses that it's by design; it's a problem with the documentation; we have massive test harnesses, quality programs, and strategies; etc.  I'm very hesitant to open support cases because they can suck so much of my time right out of my employer's pockets.  So, given all that, it just seems to me like a great idea that ArcGIS Pro would not append ":25" to mailto targets.  Looking forward to that. tim ...

Thanks @ChristianWells, transparency helps.  Is this information available from the various bugs touchpoints in Esri's web presence?  So, if I click "Bugs & Enhancements" in the screenshot above, there might be some link or hover thingy that contains the info you have shared? ... View more

@AaronKoelker - After some support requests to get myself on the notification list for various bugs, I've developed the perception that Esri is purposefully removing the bug entries from public view and from paying customers' views.  So, maybe my idea is misaligned with their strategy. ...

Hi @SSWoodward - I see it happening in ArcGIS Pro 3.1.2, various fields.  If I then "share as web layer" the ":25" shows up in the relevant item description field.   ... View more

@nikos, @alo5108 - several community members have come up with a partial solution for getting ArcGIS Enterprise services into Power BI.  Power BI has a technical constraint in that it cannot handle more than ~32,000 characters in a single cell value.  We frequently realize this constraint when we supply polygon coordinate pairs that exceed the max value.  So, sometimes not all of the polygons draw and then we have to look for ways to get the coordinate pair characters below the max value (generalize, limit precision, hope, etc.).  This info might be useful to you: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-for-power-bi-questions/shape-in-geojson/m-p/1265256/highlight/true#M1443 https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-for-power-bi-questions/shape-in-geojson/m-p/1285024#M1494 cheers, tim ...

Allow administrators to specify 1) must specify category; 2) from specified category set. Example: we have many categories established in portal we require anyone who adds an item to categorize it at a minimum with: Information Security Category Public Sensitive Confidential Confidential with Special Handling Requirements ...

joining to - ArcGIS Enterprise could secure item descriptions and content separately Also note that in ArcGIS Pro for various metadata styles there are separate constraint indicators for 1) the metadata; and 2) the data.  ArcGIS Enterprise Portal could respect that information when content is published from ArcGIS Pro. ...
