Elliot, Excellent feedback. Sure there needs to be some changes to the user interface and user experience in general. The Apple Community gives a different take on how to structure our community. Definitely some good there, but at the same time Apple's community focuses on product support and doesn't have much focus on industries, connecting users, events, etc. There should be defined paths for users to follow depending upon the reason they are coming to GeoNet. These could include Product Support, Developer Support, Product Education, Industry Best Practice, and Event Info. I have been working on some ideas, but this kind of feedback will help drive our future changes. Thank you, Timothy

As an owner of a group you can add in map carousels to the overview page of your group like the example below (Esri Forestry Group (EFG)😞 Workflow: Unfortunately it isn’t as easy as copy and paste as the code takes a small amount of editing, but if you use the code below and follow the steps and replace the highlighted URL and add an “s” to the “http” with the code provided on ArcGIS Online it should work just fine: <p align="middle"><iframe scrolling="no" frameborder="0" src=" https://efg.maps.arcgis.com/home/webmap/embedGallery.html?displayapps=true&displayinline=true&group=49b43eb9b6e44db8a562e3df82cd0dbe" style="width:720px; height:238px;"> </iframe></p> As an example, you can go to any publicly shared ArcGIS Online group click Share > Embed in a Website. Select the proper size Using the code above you can then replace the URL with the URL provided and add an “s” to the “http”, you’ll also notice an added “p align…” on the front and back was needed. As I am not a coder I don’t actually know why this was necessary but Bernie helped me with it. Example of the code provided from ArcGIS Online: <iframe scrolling="no" frameborder="0" src="http://efg.maps.arcgis.com/home/webmap/embedGallery.html?displayapps=true&displayinline=true&group=49b43eb9b6e44db8a562e3df82cd0dbe" style="width:720px; height:238px"></iframe> Once you have made the necessary modifications, you can paste your code into an HTML widget. See Customizing the Overview Page‌ for more information. Thanks Kathryn Decker‌ for providing this workflow!

Hi Herschel, You might have a look at using ArcScene to create web scenes. A web scene can be uploaded and viewed through ArcGIS Online. Export to 3D Web Scene (3D Analyst) Whitepaper - Exporting ArcScene Docs to 3D Web Scene Timothy

Add the 'u' in front of my concatenated string as Bruce Harold‌ suggested worked. Thanks! list = [] raw = u'Soporté' list.append(u"Department: {}".format(raw)) print list

Thanks Bruce Harold‌! That works for printing the text, but I've added some complexity beyond printing. I am trying to concatenate the unicode with a string and append it to a list. list = [] raw = u'Soporté' list.append("Department: {}".format(raw)) print list

I am trying to convert unicode to string, but I am getting UnicodeDecodeError. The original issue is related to working with a json return and creating a string, but here is a simplified example: raw = unicode("Soporté") print string UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 in position 6: ordinal not in range(128) I have tried the suggestion from here: Rename layer with unsupported signs in a mxd via python?‌ raw = unicode("Soporté") string = raw.decode('utf-8') print string And here: Write Russian field names to txt raw = unicode("Soporté") string = raw.encode('utf-8') print string But I get the same error: UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 in position 6: ordinal not in range(128)

It accepts a Boolean value, so that should have been capitalized. 0/1 or True/False

Try: arcpy.addOutputsToMap = true env(arcpy)

The email error is from GeoNet only allowing one email address to be associated with the community. Whereas multiple Esri Accounts can use the same address. In order to use the email address with another account on GeoNet you will need to change the email address in My Esri, and then log into GeoNet with that account for the platforms to sync. Go to your profile in GeoNet to confirm the address has been updated. Once this is confirmed, you can log into GeoNet with the other account using that email address.

I've moved your post into the Python space. You will get a much better answer here as the GeoNet Help is intended for community help and feedback. You can see more on the community structure, and what topics are under each space from the following documents: GeoNet Community Structure ArcGIS Discussion Forums Migration Strategy Thanks! Timothy

Possibly. I do not do a lot with SQL Databases, so I cannot answer for sure. Enterprise GIS , Melissa Jarman , Nana Dei - Any ideas?

You will need to create a feature class and then edit it to create the features. Start off by creating a feature class in your default database: Go to the Catalog window and right click your default database to create a new feature class. Create a feature class in a database in ArcGIS for Desktop Then follow this workflow for creating features in ArcMap: Before you create or edit features in ArcMap, you need to have an existing feature class to edit. If you do not have one, you can create a new geodatabase feature class or a shapefile in the Catalog window. The Editor toolbar and Create Features window contain the most frequently used feature editing tools. Once you have added the data you want to edit to ArcMap, you'll follow a basic workflow: Choose the workspace and data frame you want to edit. Start an edit session (start editing). Choose a feature template and construction tool from the Create Features window. Set up additional editing properties or options, such as snapping. Create the new feature (such as by digitizing it on the map). Add or edit attributes of the feature. Save edits and stop editing. What is editing?

You can do this with your own portal, but I am not sure the endpoint is open for ArcGIS Online. Create User - ArcGIS REST API

‎11-11-2014

It seems the reason this is working is because you have a layer named "CandidateStations_Centroid" in your ArcMap session, so it is recognized in the ListFields. Your path is referencing a folder and not a GeoDatabase, so you would need to make sure you are pointing to the actual feature class which I am assuming is a shapefile (CandidateStations_Centroid.shp).
