Add Data Widget not allowing import of GPX files.

Question

Seems like most of the WAB widgets have been added to EXB but there's functionality missing from many of them. For my organization, it's important for field staff to be able to view GPX files on the map via the Add Data widget. This functionality is missing from EXB. Is there any plan to add this functionality to the widget? Thanks.

.GPX capability was added sometime in 2024 and functioned well for a while.

But as of today, the add GPX function it is broken based on testing in three of our EB apps. (.KML import functions just fine.)
Removing and readding the Add Data widget did NOT fix the problem. I will put in a ticket to Esri.

We also use the Add Data widget in WAB to temporarily display GPX files quite regularly. Its really disappointing to see that GPX isn't supported in the EB version of the widget.

Or even KMZ's. I can't even import KMZ's of point features created by ArcPro. Even if I change the extension to KML in the "Layer to KML" ArcPro tool.
