As far as I know, this is not really possible. Have you tried toying around with the other organizational roles (beyond Admin, Publisher, and User)? From looking at configuring roles: Configure roles—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS it looks like all users have access to the organization. ... View more

I have a feeling that this app does not provide any kind of quality data checking like you are asking (at least not out-of-the-box). But, this would be really handy to eliminate any bogus entries. Even briefly looking at the GitHub stuff for customizing, I did not see anyplace to eliminate duplicate entries, etc. If this is coming back to your back end data on a server or so, maybe you could filter stuff out there (by writing queries and such). Also, this post might be better suited in a place like Web GIS​ or ArcGIS Online​ instead of in the Web Appbuilder place. ... View more

That book (Administering ArcGIS for Server: Hussein Nasser: 9781782177364: Amazon.com: Books  ) is sounding more and more like good starting place for a lot of this. ... View more

To build on what Jake has said, have you opened your existing MXDs from 10.3? They should keep the same symbology that you established with your project (at least I would hope that would happen after upgrading to 10.4). ... View more

Ron, Have you tried a different dataset to convert into a shapefile from the Open Data site in order to test its metadata? I am curious to know if this is a local occurrence or if it is happening across all datasets from that Open Data site. ... View more

There is probably some kind of easy iteration thing to do in order to get all of this to behave the way you want, but I cannot think of it right now. This may be tedious, but this is what I would do since there isn't a ton of data. For the first extract folder, export it all into a geodatabase (from ArcCatalog, create a new file gdb and import multiple shapefiles and grab them all from that folder). Then add all those feature classes into ArcMap. Then for each subsequent extract folder, load the shapefiles into the same ArcMap instance, start an edit session for the original gdb features, and copy and paste the shapefiles into the gdb. I hope that makes sense and it's too bad that Append didn't work. I'm sure someone else on here (likely tomorrow) would have a better and more appropriate answer involving a geoprocessing tool and maybe some iterations. Either way, good luck! ... View more

Hi Terry, Could you copy one of your shapefiles over to the geodatabase and then use the Append—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop tool to append the other datasets into your current one? Do you have many that you are working with? If not that then, export the first shapefile into your gdb and then open that gdb feature class in an Edit Session and just copy and paste the other shapefiles into the Editing layer. Does that make sense? I did not see an attachment for your first post. Cheers, Adrian ... View more

I wish it was as simple as opening popups in the way they are layered. Though, it will be a good idea to train your boss how to use these types of maps and get familiar using the 'next' arrow. I have a a feeling that this won't be the last map that you will use to present! ... View more

Have you tried looking into the student editions? ArcGIS for Desktop Student Trial I am not sure that this will be the correct software or not but it may be worth looking into. ... View more

I saw you had a response at one point to this message but it looks like you may have taken it down. Were you able to get your question answered? ... View more

When does your month change over? That's a great question and I am curious to see what will happen! If you were taking the Geo-Apps MOOC, they mentioned that if you did go over your allotment due to testing out the geo-apps and such, that you could tell them and they could possibly help you out with giving you some more to 'tide you over' for the next month. I can't find that message anywhere now, but I remember that being mentioned somewhere... ... View more

Just to ask the obvious question, is it possible that when you click on the parcel under the buffer that it is still being identified but you might have to hit the next arrow?  Can you share your map with us? ... View more

You can't really concatenate fields in ArcGIS Online, unfortunately. This will need to happen at the desktop level, likely. It may work for you to use one of your text fields as a number field in order to symbolize it the way you want in AGOL. ... View more
