Enable Sync, keeps giving me a "Save wasn't successful. Try Again Later"

[BryanMJewell]

I'm trying to Enable Sync so my layer I create will show up in the Field Maps app so data can be collected. When I try to  Enable Sync and save it keeps giving me a "Save wasn't successful. Try Again Later" error message. However, it does not give me that error if I just Enable Editing.

Any ideas?

Having same issue without solution yet.

Like many errors in ArcGIS, they will not explain why, and you will not find solution. It's just a commercial. Pay your license and use free softs.

Maybe you've already solved this by now, but check if any of your fields are the following types:

• 64-bit object IDs
• Big integer
• Date only
• Time only
• Timestamp offset

I had a Date only field that was causing the same error. I changed it to a date field instead and it saved no problem. I was able to connect it to field maps. I found this solution on this page: Manage hosted feature layer editing—ArcGIS Online Help | Documentation.

Hope this helps!

Yes! You are a life saver! I added a new layer and a field was "Date Only" and that was preventing me from saving with "Enable Sync." Once I deleted that I could save. 

Thank you @AlexaKennel

This was it for me too, thank you so much!

If the above from Alexa doesn't help, have you got any layer views for this layer? I found this bug is causing my error BUG-000140593 for ArcGIS Online (esri.com)

That has got to be one of the lamest error messages ever concocted by the human mind. How is trying again later supposed to solve somebody's problem?
