Esri Support Services for the win! Vysakh did his homework in advance and was able to walk me through the process. Turns out I did not have a Administrator Connection added. Here's why: When you add an ArcGIS Server connection in Pro, it does not give you the option to select your connection type like it does in ArcMap (use vs publish vs administer services). So, when I created my connection file, it defaulted to a Publisher connection and I never realized it. To fix this, you have to right-click on the connection file after you have created it and open Properties. At the top of that dialogue box, there is a handy-dandy drop-down menu. Change it to Administrator Connection, and the option to publish Geoprocessing Service will magically appear in the Publish menu the next time you open it.

We're running Server Standard version 10.8.1, so I don't think it's a compatibility issue. We are republishing a custom print service exactly as we have it on a 10.5.1 Standard Server, except that we're trying to publish from Pro instead of ArcMap.

I'm working my way through the steps described in the document "Share custom layouts for printing from ArcGIS Pro" and I've hit a wall. Under the section called "Publish a print service to the stand-alone server", I'm good until step 2. When I right-click my server connection and go to the Publish menu, I do not have an option for Geoprocessing Service. I only have Map Service, Tile Service, and Geocoding Service as options. I also tried to go to the geoprocessing history and right-click the successful Export Web Map tool execution, and that only gives me the option to create a geoprocessing package. My Pro license is ArcGIS Advanced, using arcgis.com as my Licensing Portal. My server connection in Pro is set up through an account with administrator privileges. The stand-alone server is running version 10.8.1 and I already have lots of map services published to it. What am I missing? Why don't I have the geoprocessing service option?

Agreed - I can put in the HTML tags instead of using the button. Regardless of the method for hyperlinking, however, it's an all or nothing proposition. Either the hyperlinks exist for every data entry or for nothing. I can't have a "N/A" text display for the URL without it hyperlinking. That's OK -- hiding the entire row solves that issue.

Just for context, I found my way here by clicking on the Feedback link and then "Share your feedback here" link embedded in the Find My Vaccine solution template. Hopefully, this post will get back to the Solutions team for consideration! Overall, this is an excellent template. I love the modern responsive design. We hope to go live with our version this week. The main feedback I can offer is that we've gone back and forth between using this solution and a similar one in Web AppBuilder using the Near Me widget. The main reason we keep going back to the WAB version is because there is no option for a splash screen in the solution. Because doses are so limited, we want to have a splash screen that requires the end user to confirm that they are Phase 1 or 2 eligible before they proceed to the map. (Yes, we know, people will click through it regardless of what phase they are in. We just want to force them to take note of the app's limitations at this point in the vaccine distribution process.) Our need for a splash screen or disclaimer is almost met with the About panel. The trouble is that there appears to be a cookie that knows whether the user has viewed the app, and if so, the About text is suppressed. We want that text to remain visible at all times. Speaking of the About panel -- a "nice but not necessary to have" in the app builder would include an ability to pop out the Edit Introduction Panel text editor. It is so narrow that it's hard to edit text when you have more than a few lines. One other "nice but not necessary to have" would be an option for hint text in the Search box. The design is so clean that the end user doesn't always recognize that the search box is an option. If we could put in "search" or "enter address or place" or something like that in a grayed text, that would make the search box more obvious. Never mind on this suggestion - I found the spot in the app builder to update this. One last "nice but not necessary" would be the option to keep all of the locations showing, even after a search is performed. I personally find it disorienting to click on the map and lose a bunch of points, but I can see the appeal to having that available.

Thank you! This was a successful workaround for me. It's nice to be able to suppress empty fields. I noticed that the automatic hyperlinking still happens in pop-ups if you use the option to display a list of fields or a single field in the pop-up, but not if you do a custom pop-up. In that case, you have to use the URL button to create a link, which is an all-or-nothing proposition for right now (either everything is hyperlinked or nothing is hyperlinked). Maybe we'll get more versatility with Arcade modifying HTML down the road.

I have a dataset with a field that is either populated with a web address (https://....) or the text N/A. If there is a URL, I want to display it as a hyperlink in the pop-up so that the end user can just click to open it. I wrote up a conditional statement in Arcade and tried to plug it into HTML view in the pop-up custom configuration, but it only returns the HTML code in the pop-up, rather than recognizing the <a href> tag and adding the link. Here is my Arcade code: var webURL = $feature["Location_website"]
var linkYes = '<a href="{Location_website}" target="_blank"><b>{Location_website}</b></a>'
var linkNo = 'Website: <b>{Location_website}</b>'
when(webURL == 'N/A', linkNo, linkYes) And here is where I put the expression (I replace the highlighted text with {expression/expr0} And here is the pop-up (forgive my messy redaction work): Is there a better way to do this? I don't want to use the WYSIWYG editor to insert a hyperlink because I don't want N/A to be an active link that goes to nowhere.

Someone marked your reply as the correct answer, but it does not answer the heart of my question, which is "So, I'm wondering if Collector will still be available past December 2021 for operations that are resource poor but still want to do data collection?" Or perhaps more clearly stated, will Collector still be available in the app stores after 12/2021? I asked our sales rep and he indicated that Collector WILL be removed from the app stores in December 2021. Is this correct?

The answer is embedded in that article that you referenced. Specifically, "Because of that lazy execution and chaining, the following two expressions are identical, and will have the same performance with respect to query execution:" The two expressions that follow are nearly identical to what I posted. Thank you - that was an interesting article.

Has anyone tested Arcade's performance with tight vs more verbose expressions? For example, here is an expression I wrote to count the number of accidents that occurred within 150 feet of a road centerline: Count(Intersects((FeatureSetByName($map, "Accident"), Buffer($feature, 150, "feet"))) A more verbose way to get the same result might be: var accidents = FeatureSetByName($map, "Accident")
var roadBuffer = Buffer($feature, 150, 'feet')
var roadAccidentIntersects = Intersects(accidents, roadBuffer)
var countAccidents = Count(roadAccidentIntersects)
return countAccidents Does anyone know if one expression would perform better than the other in an AGOL pop-up? I've definitely noticed that the more you click on features in a map with spatial analysis, the faster the browser gets at calculating the results. I'm just wondering if there is an advantage to writing tight code as opposed to more readable code.

I saw the announcement about Collector being "retired" in December 2021. Does that mean that after December 2021, we will not be able to download the Collector app onto any device that does not currently have it installed? Or does it just mean that we can continue to download/use it but there will be no tech support offered after that date? Here's why I ask: the software requirements for Field Maps are fairly high -- iOS 13.5 or Android 8.0. Now I realize that in an ideal world, everyone would be buying new tablets and Smart phones every few years, but that's not the reality. I can easily imagine local governments and non-profits having an investment in older hardware that cannot be upgraded to the latest and greatest OS. In our current economy, they are unlikely to have the funds to purchase new hardware. So, I'm wondering if Collector will still be available past December 2021 for operations that are resource poor but still want to do data collection?

OK, take two. Try running this tool: Manage Map Server Cache Status (Server)—ArcMap | Documentation . If closing/reopening ArcCatalog doesn't do it, this tool might "shake it loose."

You need the menu option directly below that, which is grayed out. View Cache Status... has an option to cancel caching. See View cache completion status—ArcGIS Server | Documentation for ArcGIS Enterprise for details. I know I've had a problem with those tools graying out before. Seems like the fix was something stupid like closing and reopening ArcCatalog. I'll see if I can find any documentation and get back to you.

Based on my subsequent research as well as Jonathan Quinn's comment on this post, I feel confident that it is not possible to migrate to a new server AND upgrade versions at the same time. Disappointing, but it makes sense that there isn't a tool that can do both. Esri would have to come up with custom configurations to accommodate every possible jump between versions. That's a pretty heavy lift.
