Have you tried modifying the symbology for the layer using those two fields? If you have a domain table already, the symbology menu should recognize all of the possible values, even if they don't exist in the data. If they exist in the symbology, that should transfer to the editing template. Note that I'm just speculating -- no idea if this will solve your issue!

No idea if this will fix your issue, but there is a checkbox in the Legends settings called "Scale to fit patch size" that could affect your output. You can find it in the Legend Properties under Legend Items > Show properties... Sizing: Maybe checking or unchecking that box for your polygon layers will have an impact?

Are you adding your State Plane cached service to a map that already has a different projection set? Perhaps Pro is working overtime to reproject your service to the local map's projection on the fly?

Matt, that drives me nuts. I know Repair Data Source isn't the only place that does that, but I can't remember at the moment where. According to a comment on that ArcGIS Idea, they thought that a fix would be in Pro 2.9, but I'm using that right now and it's still not an option. At least it's on their road map.

I have a Pro project with 16 maps that each contain 6 layers. All of the layers are query layers pulling data from the same SQL database. Next month, the database is going to be moved to a production server, which means that I need to change the connection that all 96 layers use. Needless to say, I am not looking forward to that many clicks! Is there something in the arcpy library that I could use to script out the process of repointing these layers? I've never used a script to modify a Pro project before, so I'm mainly looking for ideas on where to start.

Kind of a long shot, but is your data on a network drive? That's usually what slows down my scripts (though the lag time is worse inside Pro than outside). If your data is not on your local machine, it could be a latency issue where the computer is having to work harder to access the data and write the results.

I'm looking for an easy workflow that will allow an end user to maintain their data in a CSV, then upload the revisions into ArcGIS Online AND have those updates be automatically reflected in a hosted polygon feature layer. It seems to me that the following workflow should work, but it doesn't: - User creates a CSV and uploads it to ArcGIS Online as a hosted table (no spatial information beyond a county name). - User also owns a hosted polygon feature layer with county polygons and a field with the county names. - User creates a hosted feature layer join between the static county polygons and the hosted table created from the CSV. - Later, the user has changes to the data in the CSV, so they go to the hosted table, click Update and select overwrite layer, and overwrite the original data with the updated data. - After uploading the new data, the hosted feature layer's symbology automatically changes based on the newly updated values. Everything works in this workflow EXCEPT the last step. When I go back to the hosted join, no data displays on the map and I cannot open the attribute table. I have an alternative method for updating the data that involves a Python script. However, it would be a real game changer for my "not tech savvy" colleagues if they can just maintain a spreadsheet and upload the data directly into ArcGIS Online to update their maps.

I agree with what you're seeing in that blog. When I talked to our account representative back in January 2021, it was his understanding that the app would no longer be available for download in the app stores at the end of this year. I don't have that in writing, as it was shared with me in a phone conversation. So, whether we had bad information or Esri changed its mind, I don't know!

Oh nice! That worked like a charm. Thank you, Kristian!

I've had several use cases while using a when() or iif() function in Arcade where it would have been really nice to have the ability to match text using LIKE in the same way that it's used in SQL. My most recent use case is that I have several point locations on a map with a field holding website URLs. My client wants all URLs with a specific domain name (let's say www.esri.com as an example) to have different text for the hyperlink than all of the other URLs. So, I'd want to write a statement like this: when($feature.URL LIKE "https://www.esri.com%", "Go to Esri sponsored site", "Vendor Website") Any website that starts with https://www.esri.com would return the text "Go to Esri sponsored site" and all other sites would return Vendor Website. I can use that custom expression for the text: And use the {URL} parameter for the actual link.

Good to know! Thanks, Jonah.

Jonah, in your reply, you wrote: "Your server must be federated with you portal to publish a web feature layer." Is that true if I am copying the data to the server instead of using a registered database? I assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that using the copy method would only use Portal and Data Store. If Server is a required component of the copy data method, then I can see why being unfederated would be a deal breaker.

Yes. The name is always simple: just alpha characters, no spaces.

I'm at a loss for why I keep failing to publish a web map from ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS Portal 10.8.1. I was able to get two maps published successfully, so I know it's not a permissions issue. Even when I pare down the map to a single layer with next to no attributes, I get the same basic error messages: Status: Failed ErrorMessage: Failed to publish web layer Status: Failed ErrorMessage: Failed to publish web layer Test_WFL1. Status: Failed ErrorMessage: Failed to publish one or more web layers I'm trying to copy the data since my Portal is not federated with Server. None of the forums I've found so far have applied to my situation - I don't have a bad date field in any layer and I'm not trying to automate it with a script. Anyone else having this issue?

Hi Robert! We'd like to use the eSearch widget on a secured service with stored credentials and limit usage enabled via the Item page on ArcGIS Online. Do you know URL(s) we would need to whitelist on the usage limitation to allow your widget to call that service? I realized after I posted this that there is another way to do it. I need to copy the URL from the item page and use that as the URL in the eSearch widget. Apologies for the noise on an already long forum! 🙂
