Further info We found the switching on Preview Features, for the PowerBI (Oct 2021) version, did appear to fix the issue. However 2 weeks later, the issue reappeared. Basically, it looked like preview features changed the token expiry from 1 hour to 2 weeks. Current workaround is to set Chrome to delete app.powerbi.com cookies when the session is closed. Saves having to do that manually. Cheers Ben

Hi Andrew, One thing to note with my issue. This is in a large client organisation, so they are still using the October 2021 version. I have made them aware that having the preview infrastructure features may cause other issues when upgrading to later versions. Can cross that bridge when they update! Cheers Ben

Hi Andrew We heard back from Microsoft and they suggested switching on the infrastructure update in PowerBI Desktop before publishing the dashboard. In: File > Options and settings > Options Then: Global > Preview features That seems to fix it.

Hi Andrew The Portal in question is set up to use the users AD details to log in. I believe it's done via SAML. Most users will get the following prompt and then simply click the blue button. There is an option to define the login and enter the details in the ArcGIS login section at the bottom. That does include the option to tick off "keep signed in". But like I say, most users won't even look at that. It's a workaround at best. I need to have another look at it tomorrow. Regards Ben

Hi We're having an issue where our dashboards (published on PowerBI web) are holding the Portal for ArcGIS cookie past their expiry. When users initially look at the dashboard with the map, it works fine. Later on, they get the blank Visualiser with the Connect to ArcGIS button. Clicking the button at this point has no effect. Looking in the Chrome Developer tools, I see it gives an invalid token message for Portal. Same issue happens in Chrome and Edge. Going into the cookies and clearing out the app.powerbi cookies is the current workaround, but we don't want to have to tell all users to do this. Is this an issue with PowerBI/ArcGIS Maps for PowerBI or just a simple case of checking on some tickbox to force the PowerBI web app to clear the token cookie? Regards Ben

Yes, I'm also on the November 2021 edition, on which I'm experiencing the issue. I've also upgraded to ArcGIS Pro 2.9 (if that has any relevance). Ben

I'm seeing the same issue, where I can't log into AGOL from Power BI I've tried the following: Clear caches in Power BI Options. Clear the CEF and Cache folders (Power BI Store Version) Uninstall Power BI (Store Version) Installed Non Store Power BI Restarted machine Still cannot log into AGOL. Existing maps in Power BI do work. Just can't create new ones.

Hi Andrew Thanks for the response. Sorry for my lack of clarity. The URLs were okay, I just left them out as they are internal. My objective was to get lists of services in a folder on the server and then gather some further information on them. I thought the ServicesDirectory.list(folder="abc") method looked like an easy method in the API docs. But any reference to 'folder' in any ServicesDirectory methods throws an error. That seems to have been around for a few versions. I did remove the connection through the federated "gis" connection as you suggested though. Regards Ben

I've been trying to access the REST endpoint using the ArcGIS API for Python 1.4 When using any ServicesDirectory method which mentions folders, I get the key error seen here. Any chance that could be fixed?

Hi Jayanta Thanks for your response! Yes, this does work. However, the function I'm talking about here is a new one in Pro. As far as I understand, it creates a virtual raster in the project, rather than a fixed output. For that reason, it's much faster to process. It could also be incorporated into the new raster function workflows (which are similar to model builder). This is more about reporting an possible bug in the new functionality, than seeking possible alternatives. I should have mentioned that to start with Ben

Hi I've been experimenting with the Raster Functions in ArcGIS Pro 2.0 (beta). When I tried to make a composite of raster bands using Process > Composite, it names all the bands in the virtual composite Band 1 (see screenshot). The raster bands were loaded in ArcGIS Pro as individual bands and the data was raw Sentinel 2 jp2 files. Hopefully it's just a beta issue and will be fixed by 2.0 release, but I though I should post anyway! Ben

I don't think arcpy has the capability to change symbology (other than importing from an existing layer file). You can use the comtypes module to access ArcObjects from Python. That will allow you to control symbology. Have a look here for more information on ArcObjects and Python. Python and ArcObjects The snippits.py has some useful examples. You will also probably need to look over the ArcObject help and Object Model Diagrams. Carto is the one which will have the symbology. Ben

This could be useful to look through. http://resources.arcgis.com/gallery/file/geoprocessing/details?entryID=8C8E6EB6-1422-2418-A0B8-6AA61BF57894 I used it as a basis for some DDP mapping I did a while back. Also, you should look at using page definitions within DDP rather than a py script. Ben
