It would be nice to have an update on the search() functionality. Some of these threads are nearly 3 years old. We have the same need as Aaron & Cody as we would like to update several CSV's daily tied to select_one to represent an organizational structure 1 : many relationships so the select_ seems like the only way to model this Division -> Managers -> Staff This will be for employee check in related to the COVID-19 issues. Maybe the idea out there might get higher precedence if we tag the idea with COVID-19. ... View more

Hello Celine, We experienced a very similar issue about a month or so ago. I reported a support incident and they only thing the support analyst advised me to do was to uninstall Data Store and reinstall. If you had any patches you will want to install those after the base install as well.  In our case this allowed the database instance to start again and everything was in tact, although it took a very long time for this to uninstall and reinstall. Hope this helps! Ronnie ... View more

Mark, The field order action you are performing in this example is only for the map document in ArcGIS Pro just like reordering fields in an ArcGIS 10.x. map. If you inspect the fields in catalog, they are still in the original order. The intention of this idea is permanently reorder fields in the source feature class.  ... View more

When using parameters it also restricts the category list to only None & the value in the parameter. This defeats the purpose of using url parameters as an initial filter since the other categories do not exist as a selection.  ... View more

It would be nice if AppStudio had a simple wrapper to consume a Web App Builder application. We have tried this with the browserview and it works great but still not optimal because most of the browser navigation components are present. Many agencies still want to have a web and mobile version and WebAppBuilder solutions could solve these challenges. Maintaining 2 different code bases for very simple applications is an issue. ...

Yes because there are instances when publications do not work due to underlying database issues and these are not reported back to the end user. In the example of bug BUG-000122241 the publication failed. So knowing as much as possible before going into tech support saves us hours and hours on the phone. The additional details knowing the table published but all of the fields names did not have associations in the service was part of this root cause analysis.  ... View more

Thanks Elijah, this solution worked for me for the hosted feature service database (9876) and really appreciate the help!! We needed to connect to the backend database to troubleshoot converting hosted feature service back to an enterprise data store. We were running into an issue with column names and case sensitivity since our widgets broke in an existing Web Application as we are trying to port the database to enterprise.  This helped confirm all column names exist as lower case in the backend database including objectid & globalid. Also when column names exceeded 32 chars we did not know how it named them and it basically renamed all of the columns with numeric suffixes and alias values with the entire name.  ... View more

This is a great idea and we have resorted to using tinyurl for this exact purpose. ... View more

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!  ... View more

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? ... View more

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. ... View more
