We recently learned that Esri introduced rate-limiting for AGO in September 2020. As i understand it, rate-limiting is a new development in AGO. It subsequently has impacted a few of our high traffic critical applications in undesirable ways including slow performance and 429 errors invoked when demand is high. We have always operated on (what has become) the standard feature data store since 2014 without issue until summer 2021 with our wildfire application and data layers (2021 was/is a particularly active fire season for us). We find ourselves in a situation where just a handful of our AGO applications and maybe a dozen associated hosted feature layers require the performance of the high cost M4 tier that allows for higher traffic and mitigates the 429 errors we were seeing. We're hopeful that as Esri tunes the rate-limiting and premium tiers that more flexible options become available. Possible options: cost relative to actual usage instead of a flat monthly fee for Premium Tiers enable AGO org to specify content that needs Premium Tier performance and enable AGO org to specify date ranges for when Premium Tier usage is required better documentation and transparency regarding rate-limiting and performance needs. I'd love to hear from other AGO Organizations who may have similar concerns - what works for you with the new rate-limiting and premium feature data stores and what doesn't? Have you opted for a Premium Tier feature datastore? Some info is available here (search page for Premium Feature Data Store as there is no direct link to the section): https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/reference/faq.htm

Currently in AGO, we must navigate to an item's settings page to update the status of an item to authoritative, deprecated or no status. Please enhance the content page so that we can select and mark multiple items as authoritative/deprecated/or no status from content page.

cheers @PaulHoefflerGISS

Thanks @PaulHoefflerGISS ... sounds familiar unfortunately. Lots of good stuff about AGO, its uber popular in our Org, and that popularity means more and more content getting shared to groups with update capabilities (Hub sites being the newest culprit - autocreates the required groups with update capability). I've opened a new ticket with Esri Canada today to see if we can get some traction to address the content ownership changing issues for items shared to udpate groups.... We'll also possibly be looking at creating a script internally to help solve the problem. GeoJobe's Admin Tools Pro for AGO app has some good tools, but it also falls short for this problem.

@PaulHoefflerGISS can you confirm if you're still having this problem? We are (although there appears to be some situations where an item will transfer to another user despite being shared to a group with update capability). I believe I also run into the two bugs above that you mentioned, on a regular basis when transferring content shared to 'update' groups between owners.

This may be related to AGO handling the dates as UTC. There is an arcade function that you can use to convert the dates in your table to UTC in AGO for labels, popups.

Add a filter to the members page that allow admin to filter for disabled accounts. This would facilitate easier member management.

Currently the AGO status report for members includes a field for last login date. The date/time fields in the report are unfortunately configured in a manner that prevents any useful sorting. Please fix so that the date/time fields can be sorted from earliest to latest or visa versa. We are a large organization and need to be able to determine which accounts in the report have been inactive. The AGO members page sorts properly - the reports should also sort in the same manner.

I concur - good idea. The new option to transfer content via "..." on member page is welcome - but currently almost useless to me as an admin. We have members who have been using AGO for quite some time who have created/organized their project content by folders. They often have upwards of 20 folders with hundreds of items. We are a large organization and from time to time people move on, necessitating the transfer of content. When transferring content to a new owner I'd like to see the following options: preserve folder structure have option of editing the folder names (i.e. I usually add the same name or piece of text - some kind of indicator - to the beginning of all the folder names getting transferred so that the new content owner can distinguish where the content came from)

Interesting - I think I have run into this in the past. ... but, can't quite recall what the solution was. I'd contact esri support for assistance.
