how do you set the default symbology for a new feature layer uploaded through the API publish method i'd like to set the symbology and field attributes through the API rather than manually

Hi Phil, this looks like a really good solution if i can get it to work. 1st issue was it said arcpy didn't contain function JSONToFeatures_conversion I was running 10.3 Pro on the machine so I copied across a 10.4 arcpy module and now it complains i'm not running arcpy in a conda environment. Which i am, even when i run from the pro python interactive terminal it still complains about the environment any ideas?

we have been able to download file geodatabase, but some do fail .At the moment we have a support call in with ESRI. we seem to think it is related to our Survey123 created and published feature classes only. We have also note that extract_data call also consumes credits ,where as manual export data does not. Anyone know if there is an equivalent that does not consume credits

yes that was it. all sorted now that i am actually on the 1.0 release apart from the fact the export_data seems to ignore the output_name attribute? anyone got that to work? outputgdb = extract_data([csv_lyr],output_name="fred") layer exported is still the default one esri use when you supply nothing I've tracked through the code and the ExtractData task is definitely getting passed the output name. When i switch to CSV it seems to use the service name (more usable) so I think it seems to be some hard coding inside the extract data task in online that for zipped file gdb outputs it forces to a set name structure. Can anyone confirm?

Hi any idea whey when i use from arcgis.features.manage_data import extract_data I get No module name 'arcgis.features'

i just want to be able to programmatically find out the last time a service was accessed. if its not being used then some action needs to be taken.

I can create a group through the arcgis api, but looks as though there is no option to do the equivalent of checking the box below that sets the group to allow all members to update content. anyone found a way through code to do this?

thanks that helps. I've installed ArcGIS Python and got this running through the Jupyter notebook. Works well. Got your code above working through this too. Only issue I've hit is trying to get the same code running from a standalone python script. I get the following error. gis = arcgis.gis.GIS(url, username, password) AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'gis' Running this under Python 2.7. works fine in a notebook. Any ideas?

I know you can get a users storage quota and usage but how do you find out the individual feature class storage of an item using portal py or another method?

this was found to be a bug in 1.3 pro when attachments are in the feature class and the merge tool is run BUG-000099002

I'm relatively new to ops dashboard but one thing that has quickly hit me is its limitations. Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like you need to have your data already pre-processed in order for dashbosard to provide some useful stats. There is no % aggregator, I have to use a pie chart to get a %. If I do a custom query on a feature class and determine there are 101 records out of my 103 I have no way out putting out this % to the dashboard. If i have a days calculated field in the data I can't turn that into a years figure unless I go back and calculate it in my feature class. This is what I have found out so far, please correct me if i have wrong or missing something. This looks a bit like a teaser product at the moment.

I am passing in a building ID and zooming to the result in Web App Builder hosted on AGOL. But the result changes the geometry as you can see below. The left image is what happens when the app loads, the right image is the original. This only lasts for the session!! A Reload and the geometry is back as normal. If I run a query using the Query Widget inside WAB it zooms to the building and doesn't change the geometry. Anyone with any bright ideas?

I have Portal 10.4.1 with Server on the same machine. I have a Scene Package I have successfully added to AGOL and published as a Feature Layer and viewed in Web Scene. But when I do the same to my Portal I get the following error. Any thoughts on where to start? Logged in as Administrator, package was added as Administrator.

In ArcGIS Pro 1.3.1 select the Analysis Tab and then the Merge tool (unde manage data section). This is the same set of tools available in ArcGIS Online, just via Pro

I have 2 feature classes in arcgis online account that I'm running the analysis/merge command on in pro 1.3. But it crashes with error or "Error executing function.Objects in this class cannot be updated outside an edit session" this works on same data for a pro v 1.1 installation. any ideas?
