If the information product you want to manage is a hosted feature layer view then at present you need to manually adjust its properties outside your ETL workspace, or tackle the job using the ArcGIS REST API via HTTP.

Feature service views offer ways to leverage feature services other than simply as they were created.

Here is an example of using HTTP calls to automate one property - swapping the source service for the primary layer..

In addition to basic create views, add and remove layers, and delete views functionality for views you might want to adjust name, description, tags, visibility, extent, editing access, definition query, field visibility or layer order.

The definition-adjusting REST calls (addToDefinition, deleteFromDefinition, updateDefinition are tricky to implement.

Who would like this capability?

If you have other requirements comment in this idea.

Thanks, yes of course.  FYI, feature service views currently list as feature services in the ArcGISOnlineConnector and you can share them.  However I separately requested that feature service views be listed as an item of type “Feature Service View” so you can identify them for things like calling their sources endpoint.
