Workaround
Go to the admin API for each layer, and add an empty index array, as shown below: https://myserver.domain.com/webadaptor/rest/admin/services/Hosted/my_service/FeatureServer/0/addToDefinition { "indexes": []} 1. To access the admin API for a hosted feature service layer, click the layer on the items page in Portal for ArcGIS to get to the REST services directory (for example, https://myserver.domain.com/webadaptor/rest/services/Hosted/my_service/FeatureServer/0/), and type 'admin' between 'rest' and 'services', as shown below: https://server.domain.com/webadaptor/rest/admin/services/Hosted/my_service/FeatureServer/0 2. On the REST services directory page, click the addToDefinition operation, and run with the following input: { "indexes": []} When this step is completed, an empty indexes array is created. 3. Add the Sync or other capabilities. Do not add the empty indexes array if the layer already has an indexes array.Steps to Reproduce
