  • Writing Portal for ArcGIS (or AGOL) image attachments to SDE - relationship class ok but image is not valid

Hi,

I am copying a Portal hosted feature service to our internal Oracle SDE database.

The relationship class is written ok and I can see that the correct attachment is associated with the parent table. However the image is not valid when I try to open it via ArcGIS Pro or ArcMap.

I've read a lot of forum posts including this one but I still haven't got it working. Does anyone have an example with the last steps on how to get the downloaded attachment (binary data) into a SDE jpeg attachment that I could take a look at?

Or outline the order of the transformers Binarydecoder, rasterreplacer (I see the raster in inspector, only if I use the decoder first), AttributeFileWriter (you write the file to a disk but not the database - do you use the AttributeFileReader to read it again and write to an attribute in the attachment table?)

 

Any ideas would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance,

Annette

 

 

Got it working. I will post the workspace later so that others can reference it.

We want to take a copy of Survey123 records and attachments to our internal SDE schema (and to be able to see the photos because the Inbox doesn't support attachments).

BinaryDecoder > RasterReplacer> AttributeFileWriter > AttributeFileReader was the sequence I used. Perhaps there is a more elegant solution but this worked.

This screenshot is the part used to write the photo to the database.

Good example, on a related topic I avoided writing directly to attachments like this:

Hi @psr14789,

See the attachment. I've modified the Portal for ArcGIS URL and sde connections.
