Agreed complete FGDB downloads w/ relationships is a must. At the moment relationships are completely lost and undiscoverable in the open data application while other vendors are promoting relationships or linked datasets and allow these relationships as properties of the data set. It is not the exact picture of what has been discussed but I did create this idea some time ago to allow users to add downloads to a "cart" and download them all into a single geodatabase. It has not received much traction and probably because it needs a better description and has some duplicate ideas. https://community.esri.com/ideas/14809-enable-cart-for-multiple-open-data-downloads Same as these ideas Select Multiple Items in Open Data and Download as a Group Multiple dataset downloads for Open Data Portals

Yes we have repositories of Map Documents managed by Git in BitBucket. It is not ideal since it is a binary format but does work well since the file does show up in the change detection. Various GIS staff have access to pull from the repositories in BitBucket. When a staff member checks in a branch, they merge with a build plan branch for one of our environments (DEV, QA, PROD). When merged the repository triggers Bamboo which uses python scripts which obtains the MXD's that changed from the commit and deploy those MXD's to the appropriate environment. Environments are controlled by a python configuration file. In the event of a rollback, this is a function of bamboo and it simply re-deploys the previous build artifact in a matter of minutes. We plan to start working on moving ArcGIS Pro projects into a new Git repository so we can version web maps and feature layers but have been focusing automating our locator updates first. Hope this is enough info!

The hack mentioned in this blog post might work and here is a similar idea https://community.esri.com/thread/94122 https://community.esri.com/ideas/13631-fix-feature-services-so-they-do-not-bypass-the-data-model

Why not create a form framework that applies across the entire ArcGIS Solution? These one off applications authored by different development teams which do something the other applications should/could do is just as frustrating. For example why can't the same feature layer be added to Web App Builder Editor Widget with the same "smart form". If all applications can access the same data service, should data integrity be applied consistently across the platform?

This would be a great addition. Currently we use GIT for our ArcMap / Server geoservices and exploring how to modify this process to support web maps. If ArcGIS Pro 2.3 supported overwrites this would be much easier as it would preserve the WebMap id and all dependencies.

Agreed! It would be great if the query tool used the same pop-up as the web map/layer has configured. We have found they are different and do not appear to support arcade expressions... boo!

We are having very similar problems with 10.5.1 + and what appears to be inconsistency and instability with the pyramids tool. Sometimes they are successful and other times not. Successful meaning the tool reports they are built only to get prompted the pyramids do not exist or simply not seeing anything at smaller scales. Other times we are presented with this warning and have never run into this before? "C2018_MOSAIC_BLOCK1: The display area covers too many pixels at the current display resolution. Please zoom in or build pyramids." This is coming up with clicking on the raster layer and clicking "zoom to layer". Older software releases prior to 10.3 did not appear to have this problem with our past collections in File or SDE GDB. I am curious what settings are you using for pyramids? Applying any compression on them?

Remember just changing the data store is not enough because each MXD/MSD is hosted in the ArcGIS Server publishing folders with the original workspaces. The registered data stores are just a check mark for the analysis of a service about to be published. There should be a database connection manager tool similar to other mapping applications so connections can be managed holistically at the map or project level and not the layer / table level which is where all wqorkspace information is stored. Regardless we gave up and I might suggest incorporating a DNS alias for your database server as long as the database names are the same. This way all connections point to the alias and when you are ready to change database servers just have DNS updated. This saved us for several SDE SQL Server upgrades from 2008, 2012, 2014 & 2016.

Why is file geodatabase not ALWAYS available as an option? We are losing this setting when overwriting existing feature services so we have to go back in , turn it on and then reindex. Additionally it looks really strange under "Additional Resources" , why not just always have this format available in the standard list?

I have had this complaint for a while only to be told by ESRI Support this is the way the geodatabase works and based on my research is related to shapefile exports. Only some of the ArcGIS applications (Ie: Collector) will support the NON NULLABLE field property, while their flagship products (ArcMap, ArcGIS Pro, Web Maps) ignore it and post space values (in the case of string fields). Even the latest version of ArcGIS Pro when editing a local file geodatabase will "work around" the data model and not respect the NON NULL or REQUIRED FIELD settings. It seems rather pointless to have these tools around for fields if the platform is inconsistent with the way the are validated (or not). I submitted this idea several months ago but it probably needs a better description after reading it again. Fix Feature Services so they do not bypass the data model Also here is a section from ArcGIS Help which states how these field properties will be dealt with when exporting to shapefiles but this seems to be the default behavior of most of the applications when editing a file, sde gdb or feature service with field properties set for NON NULLABLE or REQUIRED. Defining feature class properties—ArcGIS Help | ArcGIS Desktop Geoprocessing considerations for shapefile output—Help | ArcGIS Desktop I really wish the tools (especially web maps) would not create a record if the user does not interact, complete the required or non-null fields or hit "x" on the form it just ends up creating a lot of garbage data. The web map actually creates the record before the popup comes up kinda of a bad design and does not have to be this way. Geometry can be stored in a memory along with the form attributes. Can you imagine if our bank transfers still went thru if we hit the "X" to close the window? Results in a confusing user experience and bad data the administrator has to clean up later.

Understand the functionality around CAD mapping standards to feature layers but we receive CAD files from many different jurisdictions, entities and firms which may not adhere to any standards of their own. Additionally we have historical engineering studies from the 1980's and 90's which are non-standard and it seems like the time it would take to standardize them would be just lost efforts. I was hoping for a classification or identification tool where a user could click on "manhole" from the feature service and then click, click, click on manholes to classify them and post them to the feature service. Click on "mainline" feature service destination and click, click, lasso mainlines or use a CAD selection set. The tool would validate geomtry and then proceed. The time spent in the CAD sessions would be much more productive than assuming or creating any sort of layering standard.
