Release notes for ArcGIS Enterprise 12.0

Listed below are the new and updated resources and operations added to the ArcGIS Server Administrator API at 12.0.

Cloud providers and services

Support for cloud-native storage has been added at this release for cloud deployments. When ArcGIS Server is configured to use cloud storage for its directories, administrators can manage cloud provider credentials and services through the Cloud APIs. The following documentation has been added to this release as a reference for managing cloud-native storage:

The About resource now supports the redact parameter, which can be used to replace all hostnames included as part of URLs, or as values for the machineName properties, with placeholder values.
The About resource has also been updated to include information on installed patches.
The Import Site and Export Site operations have been updated with a number of improvements:
- Both operations can now be performed asynchronously.
- The location parameter has been updated to accept the prefix of a cloud storage location as input.
- A new parameter, locationConfig, defines the location configuration for file systems or cloud-based storage systems that exported site configurations could be saved to. Example configurations have been added for AWS S3 and Azure Blob.
The code filter for Query Logs has been updated to specify specific log codes to exclude from the query results.
The Create New Site operation has been updated to include the cloudConfigJson parameter, which is used to specify the cloud storage configuration for the deployment's cloud-native object stores, used when deploying ArcGIS Enterprise in a cloud environment.
