The Ability to Restrict Hub "Site" Creation for Creator User Types?

Amanda.Huber@threeriversparks.org_trpd

Hi ArcGIS Online‌ and ArcGIS Hub‌ teams,

We noticed that with the most recent upgrade to AGOL all Creator User Types can now create Hub Sites (according to this documentation)

Who can create sites?
Anyone who has an ArcGIS Online organizational account and has at least the following General Privileges assigned to their user role can create a site:
Content—Create, update, and delete
Groups—Create, update, and delete, View groups shared with the organization
Sharing—Share with groups, and optionally, Share with organization and Share with public.

We would like to restrict the creation of Hub sites to just specific individuals in our organization instead of all Creators User types.

Is there a setting somewhere that we can restrict Site creation further?

Thank you,

Amanda

Hi Amanda - this was done to improve the application's usability. As the app is included with essential apps, this change brings it into alignment with how other essential apps work (like StoryMaps, Ops Dashbard, and Web App Builder). Can you help us understand the reason behind the ask? What specifically about Hub Sites make you want to restrict this specific app for creators? Is there a feature or two that you feel needs tighter control?

Graham, because not all members of an organization should be able to publicly post hub sites for an organization. If there is no way to control this we will have rogue sites we cannot manage. Give us back control of our Organizations!

Hi Will - you can restrict who can share publicly. It's a user privilege to "Share to Public" that can be customized in "Member Roles" in ArcGIS Online Settings.

Graham, that would be appropriate if those users also did not also need to make other kinds of content public. There is a big difference between a web map app or dashboard and a hub site which is perceived as a website and may need to conform to an organizations branding and public information office policy that these users may not be aware of and yet we do not have the ability to stop them from making these sites.

It also seems a bit lazy on the development side of things to say we are not going to add a specific permission to this new item type and rely on a matrix of permissions that when aligned correctly grant or disallow a user the ability to do something, which could have unintended consequences... like giving users the ability to publish websites for an organization.

Anyone with ESRI who can speak on this, can you give us an update? I tried to catch back up with Graham but his email returned undeliverable
