Automate ArcGIS Online Writer Feature Service Name with Attribute

Or a workspace parameter.

​@LizAtSafe, yes it can be done with the ArcGISOnlineConector but not all datasets can be supported by Upload and Publish Action Items, without transformation.Using the ESRI Feature Service Writer that came with the ESRI ArcGIS Connector hub transformer, this new format would benefit from this idea.There are numerous datasets that would require this workaround.

Here’s a sample dataset. https://data.cambridgema.gov/api/views/mhxt-fv5h/rows.csv?accessType=DOWNLOAD&bom=true&format=true

A CSV that has a geometry column with type multipolygon will not be supported by AGOL. Using drag and drop with this CSV from a windows folder to AGOL, when I added this CSV as a Hosted FL, it treats that spatial column as type string.

So the workaround is to transform the CSV into an FGDB then use the Upload and Publish Action items.

Here’s the suggested mock up.

​

The use case here is to automate feature service creation from multiple datasets and the author wants to reuse the existing name of the source dataset.

Please reconsider the idea, Thanks!

Looks like the FeatureService Writer already support this so please ignore my above comments.
