3 Ways Admin Tools for Portal Supports the ArcGIS Administrator

By T_mackinnon @tedmackinnon

2. ADD DELETE PROTECTION TO ITEMS IN BULK
Ever lay in bed at night and suddenly realize that any admin in your portal could accidentally delete an item that would cause a massive pain / headache / you to lose your job / send you into a never ending spiral of trust issues and self-doubt?

The out of the box ArcGIS Online / ArcGIS Enterprise product allows you to enable delete protection ( which is awesome ), what we have done on top of that is created an easy to use interface to filter for the correct content and quickly add delete protection to it. Maybe you want to add delete protection to every item owned by a certain users, every item in a certain group, or even every item with a certain tag.

3. CLONING ITEMS BETWEEN DEVELOPMENT & PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENTS
Do you ever need to move content between two Portals (or from one ArcGIS Enteprise to an ArcGIS Online account)? Well, we can do that too! Admin Tools can create an exact clone of an item and all of it dependencies by moving the item, all its dependencies, and then rewiring them against the new item id's in the target portal. That's right, we solve that problem and we solve it well.
