Thanks. What happened to the scheduled 3.0.4 release? https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/get-started/release-notes.htm This page used to point at 3.0.3 (then current) but now points to 3.1. I didn't go through the entire list but it appears that 3.1 rolls up all the issues from 3.0.4 and adds new fixes, right?

Thanks @KoryKramer for investigation and clarification of how it should work. I did not know you could configure it as an admin add-in. I confirm to you Kory we are doing it the former way as part of user configuration. Great comments all round. Our ICT is not okay with us registry hacking (especially not for clients) so I don't think this will work for us. We do deploy with the awesomely acronymed MSSCCM-AC (Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager Application Catalog) so it possible that a .reg could be queued into an installation script. Not sure if that has changed now Pro no longer uses .msi and just has an .exe. This still has all the disadvantages @Anonymous User eloquently detailed. In addition we have raised similar questions with ICT before and they said it was extremely difficult to know where to put the registry node/keys due to a mix of hardware and software (mobile/desktop/virtual, different OS', etc) requiring excess scripting and support on their end. The documented registry edit looks stable to me though.

Sure, and we have. It still doesn't address the issue of what happens if someone who does have permission does a whoopsie, or if the folder permissions are changed for some reason beyond our control (this has happened to us in the past). We have also had users arbitrarily added to our domain group without our permission or consultation... To me the analogy is having two D's on your car gear select. One is Drive and the other is Destroy. As as long as you use the first, it's fine. Choosing the second one instantly destroys the transmission without warning (perhaps as a security procedure to stop car theft). Adding protective guards around accidentally using the other D-gear seems counterproductive to... not having it at all. Which is why it does not exist outside a Mad Max movie. I just don't understand the design of this feature, especially when Pro is touted as an enterprise level tool for multiuser-GIS organisations. To further explain our position, we use addin customisations to deliver business-critical functionality and productivity tools to ~60 users, while the tools are available to the entire organisation (~1000 staff). While the tools are currently protected as Bud suggested, the default behaviour of one person detonating the custom tools for everyone seems... unwise.

Pro should definitely show (greyed out) add-ins that are not compatible from shared folders, and that they are not being used. This information can be provided to admins as required for further action. Being able to delete them (and so easily) should not be possible by the average user when the explicit function of the feature is, "...a convenient way for many people in a workplace to use the same add-ins." I doubt very much that 'many people' would find it convenient to discover that their add-in had been quickly and invisibly removed by someone, making it unavailable to everyone. I further note that this is not the same behaviour ArcMap exhibits when it is loading add-ins from a shared folder. Managing file/folder permissions to get around this is an effective hack, but it's still a hack imho.

"With the major release of AcrPro 3.0 we see a flash of light at the end of the tunnel. However, this comes with a significant ask on the side of the system requirements...upgrade to Windows 11..." Sorry, is that mandatory? Seems to work okay.

We're working on transitioning from client-server (EGDB) to web hosted feature layer editing through Enterprise-Portal. You sure can use attribute rules on feature classes in the Data Store (wherever that is, we are using Oracle right now) but yes you have to use the hosted feature layers only to edit through the application. I believe you can actually edit the data directly but because you're required to register as branch versioned to get referenced feature layers, there are limitations. Branch Versioning documentation "Limitations of branch versioning include the following: Branch versioned datasets are not accessible in ArcMap and versions earlier than ArcGIS Pro 2.1. Most editing workflows only support accessing branch versioned datasets from your organization's portal as a web feature layer." Branch Versioning Scenarios "After registering datasets as branch versioned, editing will be completed through the feature service. Portal users will need to have access to the web feature layers and a role that includes the privilege to edit features. Geoprocessing tools that modify data can be used when directly accessing branch versioned datasets from a database connection. These tasks should be reserved for the data owner to facilitate operations such as bulk data loading."

Nice idea, this could add a lot of utility for all sorts of GIS applications with a simple feature that would not be that expensive to implement by Esri. This would offer a lot of options through customisation that the user, not vendor, does. I can see issues in validating returns, potential costly transactions resulting in performance issues and so forth, but that would be on you and your DBA in those cases. "With great power..." etc.

+1 for this. It would be incredibly useful for data management to know what size database objects were and when they were last edited. Imagine using File Explorer with no modified date or size information!

@AndrewKniowski1 this was a great tool at release and worked great for a long time. However things have changed and under 2.9.x the installation is quite different. When I finally got R, the bridge and the custom toolboxes installed, I now get this error while running the 'Create state tree diagram' tool: Create state tree diagram ===================== Parameters Database connection file: redacted.sde Create pdf true Create features true View in window true tree_vertices tree_edges ===================== Messages Start Time: Tuesday, 20 September 2022 3:50:49 PM Executing (GetStateData): GetStateData redacted.sde Start Time: Tuesday, 20 September 2022 3:50:49 PM Saving temporary files to C:\Users\aquee\AppData\Local\Temp\ArcGISProTemp16744\StateDiagram_g9fdkh90 Succeeded at Tuesday, 20 September 2022 3:50:53 PM (Elapsed Time: 3.98 seconds) Executing (CreateStateDiagram): CreateStateDiagram C:\Users\aquee\AppData\Local\Temp\ArcGISProTemp16744\StateDiagram_g9fdkh90 true true true Start Time: Tuesday, 20 September 2022 3:50:53 PM URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib/PACKAGES.rds': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib/PACKAGES.gz': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib/PACKAGES': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'unable to access index for repository http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib: cannot open URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib/PACKAGES'package 'igraph' is not available for this version of R A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere, see the ideas at https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-admin.html#Installing-packagesURL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/windows/contrib/4.2/PACKAGES.rds': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/windows/contrib/4.2/PACKAGES.gz': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/windows/contrib/4.2/PACKAGES': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'unable to access index for repository http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/windows/contrib/4.2: cannot open URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/windows/contrib/4.2/PACKAGES'URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib/PACKAGES.rds': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib/PACKAGES.gz': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib/PACKAGES': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'unable to access index for repository http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib: cannot open URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/src/contrib/PACKAGES'package 'sp' is not available for this version of R A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere, see the ideas at https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-patched/R-admin.html#Installing-packagesURL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/windows/contrib/4.2/PACKAGES.rds': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/windows/contrib/4.2/PACKAGES.gz': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/windows/contrib/4.2/PACKAGES': status was 'Couldn't connect to server'unable to access index for repository http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/windows/contrib/4.2: cannot open URL 'http://cran.cnr.Berkeley.edu/bin/windows/contrib/4.2/PACKAGES' Number of states 652 Number of versions 16 Error in do.call : could not find function "graph_from_data_frame" Failed to execute (CreateStateDiagram).

At first I thought this was some kind of proxy error, it looks like it is either trying to use/sync a graphing function from Berkeley.edu Looking further, visiting http://cran.cnr.berkeley.edu/bin gives: CRAN mirror restricted to UC Berkeley The CRAN mirror at UC Berkeley's College of Natural Resources is no longer available to off campus users and has been removed from the CRAN mirror list. The load on our server was too much. Berkeley folks can continue to access the mirror from on-campus networks or from within the VPN. The rest of the R community: Sorry, but you'll have to please choose a different CRAN mirror. Looks like we slashdotted it. 😞 How do we either change the tool to point at another CRAN mirror, or even better download the resources into the tool source so it is not reliant on an external site when run? Congratulations on making a fantastic tool, and helping keep this alive. 🙂

I might be misinterpreting what you're saying but my understanding is that attribute rules are indeed baked into the geodatabase: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/data/geodatabases/overview/an-overview-of-attribute-rules.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_A33473E5BD1C4CC696B161940BCAEE64 "Attribute rules are created on an input feature class or table." "...attribute rules are established on datasets in the geodatabase..." "Once attribute rules are added to a dataset, it is incompatible with ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro 2.0 and earlier." So, only compliant clients can even edit the rules-based geodatabase objects, and if they do they are required to follow those rules regardless of how they did it (GP tool, python, arcade, scripting/model, version edit, etc). This is pretty much exactly what the community asked for, and is a relatively simple and elegant solution. (Needs improvements of course, but that is happening) Can you edit the underlying database by using native tools bypassing the Esri stack or build your own triggers/database scripting for custom functionality? Sure... but do you really want to go back to the good-bad old days of ArcView 8/ArcInfo? I believe when this has been mooted in the past Esri didn't want to get in to modifying/supporting changes to propriety RDBMS' and they have no no way of knowing which one you use; a massive cost on their business to essentially change multiple companies products. The answer was... Attribute Rules on the Geodatabase extensible through web services. As long as you're in the Esri ecosphere I don't understand the problem, unless you're dealing with non-Esri clients who are directly editing the database, or you're importing data directly without going through an edit/rules/reviewer QA process.

At 2.9.1 Confirm both Copy Features GPT and Export data - out will create a FC in the same GDB from selection only as JayantaPoddar demonstrated. If you only want selected features, make sure you select them first before starting either tool. Both of the below resulted in 1 feature in the output. Using Export Features or Copy Features Docs say this is the same up to 3.0 "If the input is a layer and has a selection, only the selected features are copied to the output feature class."

First thing to look at is does the evaluating user have access to the sequence and has it been tested running by the schema owner? Second, you mention you are using a calculation rule. Check: When using sequences in the script expression, ensure that the Exclude from application evaluation option is set to true. This mandatory, if set to false the rule will fail; may only relate to 'insert edit operation'. We've asked Esri to amend the dialog as there is no reason to allow an choice that will cause an error.

I actually prefer the original design - it is always "Allow Application Evaluation" by default and in special cases (one?) you need to "Exclude from Application Evaluation" so for me that makes sense. You need to firmly decide that is what you want as it has a dramatic effect on when the rule runs. I think if that change was to go ahead then the checkbox should be ticked by default to represent what the standard behaviour is, with tooltip warnings of the implications of changing it.

This also applies to the 'editable' feature for calculation rules. If you did not want to let users edit this field (say you are populating a DB sequence by calculation) and forgot to untick it, or if you change your mind later about editability, you cannot toggle this option. (Greyed out as shown) Your only recourse then is to delete the entire rule and recreate it.

Sorry for very long delay. I confirm the two above post results in 2.8.1, and that although there is no control in the GPT for it, it does honour (and copy) only the active selection from the source featureclass in the map.
