How do I share a geodatabase?

To share an entire file geodatabases with other portal members or the public, compress the file geodatabase and add it to your ArcGIS Enterprise portal.

Can I upload a GDB to ArcGIS online?

Publish the contents of a file geodatabase. To web enable a feature layer from a file geodatabase (packaged in a . zip file), you can upload the zipped file geodatabase to ArcGIS Online and have its contents hosted as a service. This service is referred to as a hosted feature layer.

Can you zip a file geodatabase?

Quote from video: Click on the bottom and select all of those. Then I'm going to right click and I'm going to access the 7-zip menu. And I'm going to create a new zip file here.

Can multiple users simultaneously access a file geodatabase?

Yes; for multiple users to access data in a personal geodatabase that has a schema lock on it, all users must have the same permissions for accessing the personal geodatabase. For example, if a user opening an . mdb file has write access, subsequent users with read-only permission cannot read the file.
