Hi, I have a load of traffic camera images in AGOL that i want to update regularly using FME. I realise there are the AGOL feature service tools in FME but images are not feature services though they do have a URL. Is it possible to update images?

@annetetley, I believe what your service(AGOL) has are attachments. Currently, in FME we can view these attachments but unfortunately not able to UPDATE it. Can you confirm that is the case i.e. if you can read your current Service/Layer using AGOL reader and Under Format Attributes (see below) expose all the attachment attributes?

 

One of these attributes should contain the URL you are referring.

 

This would establish that we are dealing with attachments and then you can add your user case and also do an upvote for the Idea https://knowledge.safe.com/content/idea/49033/writing-attachments-to-arcgis-online-feature-servi.html

Hi,

I don't think it is an attachment, our ESRI database version does not support attachments. The images have been uploaded into AGOL as "Images" and only get a URL once shared Publicly. Here's an example of one of them:

https://sheffieldcc.maps.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/3a500976a2504b4bab7b9e4cac78e11a/data

They don't appear in the list of available services when I connect to our AGOL account via a Reader in ArcGIS.. I can see all the proper services but none of these images.
