Good Morning:
Background: I have a series of Hosted Feature Layers that are published to AGOL that originated from a File GDB in ArcGIS Pro. These Hosted Feature Layers are Editing Enabled and SYNC Enabled due to the fact the layers are used in Field Maps and Workforce.
Issues/Problems: It is a known fact that if the hosted feature layer is Sync Enabled, it cannot be updated via ArcGIS Pro (Overwrite Web Layer). In order to do this, the the Sync Enabled needs to be disabled in the settings of the Hosted Feature Layer. However, when doing this, the data from ArcGIS Pro is NOT updated. The process is more like truncating the dataset on AGOL. Only way is to fully delete the Hosted Feature Layer and Recreate the Web Layer from ArcGIS Pro and redo ALL of the web maps and workforce projects.
Trying to use the Truncate tool in ArcGIS Pro on a hosted feature layer is a NO go. Other option is to use the Append tool from ArcGIS Pro which just ads duplicate records and then need to go into the Hosted Feature Layer to remove.
All of these issues/problems are inefficient.
Request: Need to know what the best efficient workflow/process for updating data from a File GDB Feature Layer in ArcGIS Pro TO a Hosted Feature Layer that has sync enabled in ArcGIS Online without interrupting the user's that are using the data in Field Maps and Workforce. ArcGIS Pro Data Model; Python script; etc.
Appreciate your help because I have deleted my data on AGOL, recreated and rebuilt the maps too many times now.
