Hi @MFazio ,

The text widget supports Arcade expression in the June 2025 AGOL release.

You can use a similar script as the following:

var fs = $dataSources["dataSource_id"].layer;
var sorted = OrderBy(fs, "date_field DESC");
var fpt = First(sorted);

return fpt.date_field;

Thanks,

Shengdi

Hi MFazio,

Text Widget doesn't support this now. Once we have the solution, I will let you know.

Thank you.
