Hello John, Would you be able to submit an Esri Technical Support case so an Analyst can look at this with you? We also might need to test the actual data so a support case would be best here. When you create the case please provide screen captures from this layers REST endpoint of its "Type ID Field:", "Fields:" and "Types:" to get us started please? Please submit the case to the Enterprise-Extensions (EXT) team.   Kind regards, Dan ... View more

Hello Liesl, I am glad you are first going to install the latest version, 420, as it would have been my first recommendation. As in my post above for ArcGIS for AutoCAD the organizational URL should be in the form of https://webadaptorhost.domain.com/webadaptorname Let us know how it goes with 420. ... View more

Hey Telma, Apologies for the download issues with ArcGIS for AutoCAD.  The web page has been fixed and you should now be able to fill out the form to download the EXE file for installing the product. We appreciate your patients!     ... View more

Hello, I am guessing you are using IWA or SAML as the ArcGIS Enterprise identity. Therefore you cannot using the port number as part of the URL. You must use the URL form I provided earlier. Otherwise, while using the port number will add the organizations URL to Manager you will not be able to sign-in. I think the best course of action beyond this will be a call/email to Esri Technical Support. They will be able to assist with determining the correct URL for your organization and that the deployment is in a supported state. ... View more

Hello, Reviewing the other post where you try to create a connection to the Portal for ArcGIS admin site I would not recommend this administrative URL be used with any client. The Portal administrative URL should be used in a standalone browser session. For ArcGIS for AutoCAD the organizational URL should be in the form of https://webadaptorhost.domain.com/webadaptorname ... View more

Hey Henry, Yes, the rotation and angle field is automatically applied through the use of apply symbol. The documentation page is here. ... View more

Hello Henry, We actually take advantage of a Rotation or Angle field for blocks from the attribute field so the blocks are automatically rotated based on the double data type within the field. Doing the same thing for labels is an interesting idea. If the feature you are labeling has a rotation value then we can apply that to the label. I have set this to "Under Consideration." ...

Hello Steve, Based on my understanding of your request a few things come to mind. You can use the Select features by attributes tool which is just like the tool in ArcGIS Pro. Now this tool only allows the user to select features of a given "query". Since you want to display certain features based on this work order number I think what we want here is to add the feature layer based on a query. This is going to work as long as the work order number is a field in the attribute table of the layer. There are two ways to do this. The first is through the AutoLISP function esri_webfeaturelayer_add (AutoLISP). This function takes the REST endpoint URL or the URL with the portal ItemID as well as a definition query as arguments so that only features matching the query are added to the drawing. If you would rather perform this task using a dialog then you can do the same with the up and coming update to the "Add data by URL" dialog. If you want to "ask" the CAD user what the work order is then I suspect you will prefer the AutoLISP method and you can ask the user for the URL as well and have the programmatic aspect you are looking for. Thanks for using ArcGIS for AutoCAD! ... View more

Hello Kara, Apologies on the delayed response. I understand you are working with CAD data however, I believe from the information provided there is a filter or setting in this self deployed web application that is misfiring on the feature layer. I am not sure how we can move your topic to another community section, like ArcGIS Online to start, but another suggestion might be to contact Esri Technical Support for assistance here too. ...

Hello Brittany, First, thank you for using ArcGIS for AutoCAD (AFA) for your organizations workflows. AFA creates separate AutoCAD layers for each subtype. You can then use AutoCAD tools to symbolize those layers (setting layer, colors, etc). If you want to symbolize by a domain there is no easy way to do that but a tool like Select by Attributes will let you select everything that is of a certain subtype and domain. You can then use that selection to symbolize the data as you would like. Given you are new to CAD I will state that in order to "draw" or represent those GIS symbols AutoCAD blocks will need to be created which can then be applied to these WFL. Naming the blocks the same as the AFA layer names will aid in the automation of placing these blocks. Although some additional work will be required given there is a domain for the primaryType. The following help document should also help with this workflow and understanding: Feature layer symbols Feature layer symbols > Point feature symbols I hope this helps.   ... View more

Hello Johnny, ArcGIS for AutoCAD does not have any specific tools to handle ground to grid. Any conversion or offset values would need to be included in a prj file. You might already be aware, but ArcGIS Pro has a few help documents on this topic: Introduction to ground to grid correction Use ground to grid corrections I would suggest posting an idea on this topic in the AFA Ideas channel. ...

Hey, thanks for the update! ArcGIS for AutoCAD is going to display the x,y locations based on current location and spatial reference (coordinate system). It also sounds like you might be georeferencing a drawing as well, but it is somewhat difficult to determine from our posts. I think the best thing we can do is have you open an Esri Technical Support case with the ArcGIS Pro Team to work and double check this CAD data. If all is correct then they can transfer the case to the ArcGIS for AutoCAD support team after if needed. ... View more
