Hi there,
I am working with ArcGIS StoryMaps (not enterprise) with the updated from December 10, 2025. About half of the time when I go to edit a Map Media action button in a Sidecar pane, when selecting "Update current map appearance - Edit map view" (first image below), I get an error when it tries to load the map on the next page "Hmm... there seems to be an issue - There was a problem accessing this item. Please try again or contact your ArcGIS administrator" (second image below). Then, when I select "Go to StoryMaps content," it brings me back to all the StoryMaps My Content page, where I can choose to edit the StoryMap again. As I said, this happens only about 50% of the time, and I have noticed the issue starting 12/12/25, which I believe is the first time I accessed StoryMaps since the 12/10/25 update, and continue to see the same issues today, 12/16/25.
This is not an error that is breaking my StoryMap; however, it is an efficiency issue as I have to keep going through the same process multiple times until it sticks. Thanks!
