Thanks Travis, I was so close to finding that prior to the ArcGIS API for Python approach.

That worked!!! Thanks so much! As much as I like being able to fix things using code, it doesn't seem reasonable to have to resort to this for a critical administrative task. Would the folks at Esri Support know about this approach? Anyhow, thanks for giving me a new tool for my toolbelt!

Thanks! I'm going to give this a try.

Hi Diego, to enable the addition of more users, you will need to generate a new Portal license file (.json). This is done through My Esri: https://my.esri.com/. Now, it may be different with a developer account, but with an enterprise account, you select "My Organizations" and then "Licensing". Look for "License Esri Products" with a big blue Start button. From there: Product: ArcGIS Enterprise Version: <select version> License type: Portal for ArcGIS Select a Version: <select specific version> Once you click Next, you'll go to a form that allows you to select the number of users of each type to provision, up to the number available to you. After entering those fields, click Next again, and fill out all the info required. I recommend adding some info to the notes field to remind you later of where this license file is used. Once you've generated the license file, sign into Portal as the admin and go to Organization->Licenses and click the Import Licenses button. Hope this helps!

Hey all, so I seem to have got myself into a wee bit of a pickle. First off, this is not a case of forgetting the built-in admin username or password. I'm (all too) familiar with the cmd line tool to reset that. I setup an instance of Portal 10.8.1 to test configuration of a SAML 2.0 Federation with OKTA. This all worked fine until I disabled the option for users to login using built-in Portal accounts. The only administrative user is the built-in portal admin user, and there appears to be no way for me to log in with built-in users anymore. This means I have not way to re-enable built-in user logins via the Portal UI. I'm so used to using IWA authentication through the web adapter, I figured I'd be able to login with the built-in account by access Portal directly via :7443 but of course that still redirects authentication to OKTA. I can login to the portaladmin directory using the built-in admin account, but cannot find any way to enable built-in user logins from there. Looking at the response from the <portal-url>/sharing/rest/portals/self endpoint, I see there is a property named "samlEnabled", with a value of true. However, I have scoured all the configuration files I can find, but am unable to find a setting to control this. This is just a test setup, so in my case it's not a big deal to reinstall, but there really should be a way to fix this via configuration. If reinstall is the only answer, I will be submitting a suggestion to Esri that disabling built-in user logins is not allowed unless at least one administrative user from an alternate IdP exists, and IdP settings should be configurable via portaladmin. Thanks all!

Hi all, I'm trying to size an ArcGIS Enterprise deployment that will have to support users taking maps offline. Can anyone tell me if the heavy lifting is done by ArcGIS Server, or by Portal? or a bit of both?

Hi all, I just deployed ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7.1, federated with three instances of ArcGIS Server: GIS Server, assigned as the Hosting Server Image Server, assigned as the Raster Analytics Server GeoEvent Server I'm attempting to assign the Image Server as the Image Hosting Server, however every time I select it and hit save, the drop down menu reverts to "No Image Hosting Server". The message "Settings Saved Successfully" then appears. I have Portal's logging set to DEBUG, and there are zero log messages. Nothing in the browser console either. Could there be some prerequisite for the Image Server that is missing?

Thanks Rachel!

Planning on a single machine to host all the web-adapters.

I am planning an ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7.1 deployment including a GIS Server, Image Server & GeoEvent Server. This is the first time I have deployed Image Server & GeoEvent Server, and I'm trying to figure out if each of these servers should get their own Web Adapters, like the following: Portal: /portal GIS Server: /server Image Server: /image GeoEvent Server: /geoevent Thanks for any input!

Unable to access Portal with built-in admin account

When generating an offline map area on demand, which component of ArcGIS Enterprise is doing the work?

Cannot Assign Portal Image Hosting Server
