Hi Subu, I haven't installed 10.3.1 yet, but just checked my test 10.3 and it still shows my timezone (and set the same as above).    Maybe it's a change in 10.3.1?? ... View more

Any chance your time zone is set to the wronge location?  Mine is set here and I think mine was set automatically be the machine settings.    Just a guess and something simple to check. ... View more

I know for us, when we wanted to use our print services on our production machine, which is on a different server than our AGS, we had to use a proxy....the proxy file itself was actually empty (that is, it didn't need any tokens or anything, just needed to be there and referenced).  I cant' seem to find a sample of the proxy file right now, but mention this to ESRI tech support to see if they can help. BTW - the proxy I use it the version .9 or 1.0 ....they have a newer one, but that version works for us. ... View more

It was great to meet you too.   Your question got me wondering if there was more in the help files...but that is still in the "coming soon" for this section  ​ArcGIS for Developers     (If that doesn't t get you to the right page left me know, and it'lol try to get the URL to not autocorrect....still issues with that some days)  ....edit    defaults to dev home  so  http://doc.arcgis.com/en/appstudio/create-apps/distributeyourapp.htm  I started looking around, and How to Publish on the App Store (6 Steps) | eHow   seems to have sons straight forward into. And another  How to Submit Your App to Apple: From No Account to App Store, Part 1 - Ray Wenderlich     What's funny is using my iPad, and Safari....searching for how to publish doesn't even bring ip any Apple sites until a few pages down, and then it's for publishing books.  Definitely something I will Ned to research too!  Apple - iTunes - Working with iTunes - Sell Your Content - Sell Your Books - Authors & Book Publishers: FAQs this us looks more promising....   Apple - iTunes - Working with iTunes - Market with iTunes ...

If you aren't concerned about mobile, you should still be able to get the Flex Appbuilder ArcGIS API for Flex | ArcGIS for Developers   which isn't tied to AGOL at all, and Robert Scheitlin, GISP​  has many custom widgets available Robert's Flex Viewer Widgets​   But keep in mind that support from esri has said The latest release of ArcGIS API for Flex is significant in that it is the last planned release of this technology. While technical support will be available through June of 2016, maintenance will be discontinued. Customers should begin exploring web solutions that are based on ArcGIS API for JavaScript. More information regarding this can be found in the following blog article. ​using any of the APIs you can write your own (without being tied to AGOL at all).  And although you need to use AGOL to get the WebID to start up and Web AppBuilder developers edition, and if need to read a basemap from AGOL, you can use you own AGS services using the Loca Layer widget. to get started with WAB-developers' edition...if you want to go this route (JavaScript), check out Tips and Observations for getting Web AppBuilder -  Developer Edition Installed​ Tips for using the custom LocalLayer widget with WAB-Dev edition​ Using the Web AppBuilder​ Web AppBuilder Developer Edition - Customization Resource List​ the the last one include links to the first three, plus many others. btw, ArcGIS for Developers   links to all the APIs ...

There are ways to use your own local services, and not use a AGOL map, look at ​LocalLayerWidget and AccessifizrWidget    and the other links I listed above. WAB does require access to a basemap from AGOL, (which many times will be public anyway), but if you have your own local services with ArcGIS Server, you can have a bit more flexibily with internal access, especially if you don't upload your developer edition WAB back to AGOL, and instead host it on your own network (e.g., with IIS) Once it is strictly on AGOL, with non public services, I think you are restricted to the "named-user" restrictions, and therefore it's probably going to ask for login.  However, if you find a workaround from esri, please post a summary.  Thanks. ...

It's a third party that has a contract or permission to record the videos or the technical sessions, and there is a cost, but they are well done. for organizations, they do let you post the recordings on your organizations network to share (if you by that version) or and individual can purchasing stream (lower cost). I already was notified (yesterday) that the streaming versions were available, but when I went to check it out, their "newly designed" site was under maintenance. to purchase, the site I used (pre-conference) was Welcome to ESRI Online | ESRI Online     (and no, I do not work for esri or the Sound of Knowledge ...just a user that decided that it's well worth it to see more and share the tech sessions with staff). Although many of the slides seem to (eventually) be posted, I think that is the only way to get the videos of the tech sessions from the UC, but as mentioned, the Dev Summit sessions are available http://video.esri.com/channel/2/events  and, although they are several months old (0and some things will have changed), some topics will still be relevant. ​ ...

If your services in ​AGOL are not public, I'm not sure that you can get away from the AGOL login (but I haven't tried a AGOL token or proxy), but if you have services from ArcGIS Server, a pricy should work, if you have the app hosted on your local web server.  The application you created on AGOL to get the AppID to register WAB should not be causing any issues. i would  check out Summary of ArcGIS Server SSL Issues​ to maybe get some ideas about dealing with SSL/secure service issues. Also, if you haven't seen it already Web AppBuilder Developer Edition - Customization Resource List​  which also includes a link to  Using the Web AppBuilder​ which is a very detailed document on many WAB issues. ...

Thanks Xander.  Those are all slick. I may try to merge those into my script at some point (but working, so moved on to next script) but it is definitely good reference for next time.  I appreciate the additional options.  I'm still trying to get in the habit of cleaner looking code....still do a lot of brunt force with python (but getting better). ...

I'm adding this summary for anyone that might need to do a similar thing.  I'm using Xander Bakker 'isuncpath' function to check whether it is a local (mapped) drive or a UNC path. Then based on the results, I'm building the sdePath variable as need to get the path that arcpy needs for input to the CopyFeatures command (and most likely others). If within your target geodatabase you are trying to write to a feature dataset vs the root of the database, look at how I'm assigning the targetFC variable (commented out since I'm not providing the other variables in this sample) The sample below doesn't do anything but print out the sdePath and the paths for the FCs in the For loop.  To test with the different types of local vs UNC paths, switch (un-comment) the other masterGDB attribute assignment line. import arcpy import os # function to see if the masterGDB path is UNC or "local" def isuncpath(a_path):      return os.path.splitunc(a_path)[0] != '' def main():         #set path to one of the below     masterGDB = r'Database Connections\[email protected]\myDatabase.DBO.Masters'     #masterGDB = r'\\newserver\Staff\___gisStaffConnections\[email protected]\myDatabase.DBO.DWCMasters'     if isuncpath(masterGDB):          lstSdeFDS = os.path.split(masterGDB)           lstDbOwnerFDS = lstSdeFDS[1].split(".")         sdePath =  ('{0}\\{1}.{2}.'.format(masterGDB, lstDbOwnerFDS[0], lstDbOwnerFDS[1]))         print('sdePath: {0}'.format(sdePath))     else:          sdePath = masterGDB + "\\"         print('sdePath: {0}'.format(sdePath))     #then for using in my comands        for fdsToCopy  in ['Fclass1', 'FClass2', 'FClass3']:         #print('       Copying Master database {0} to temporary Master_update FGDB: ... '.format(fdsToCopy) )         sourceFC = sdePath + fdsToCopy         print('sourceFC path: {0}'.format(sourceFC))         # next two lines are commented out since I'm not showing the setting of         #    the updateFGDN and MasterFDS variables...but showing so others can get the gist         #targetFC = updateFGDB + '\\' + masterFDS + '\\' + fdsToCopy         #arcpy.CopyFeatures_management (sourceFC, targetFC) # End main function if __name__ == '__main__':     main() ...
