Extract data from Map Tour story map?

ScottAulen2

I've created a story map using the Map Tour template and would now like to extract the point layer into ArcMap to create a few paper maps. The feature service that was created through the template doesn't appear as a stand alone layer anywhere within our organization. Thoughts on how I can extract this data?

Patrick, as has been mentioned before, if you did not save your data as a feature service, all your data has been embedded in the web map. That being said, it is still possible to export it, it will just take a few extra steps.

First open the web map that was from the map tour builder in the ArcGIS Online map editor.
Find the Map Tour layer in the table of content, open the context menu for that layer and select the Save as layer option at the bottom.
Open that new layer's item page and click the "Publish" button. This will publish your data as a new feature layer.
Open the feature layer item's page. This page should will allow you to export the data in a variety of formats (CSV, file geodatabase, geojson, etc.)

Hi Scott

Seems very odd that after creating map from csv file, editing the story map with various collaborators, that u can not back save the final text, which has taken days to perfect, to a csv. This is a serious limitation of the story map creation process. In effect then all ur data is in the map... should anything happen u have to go back and start from scratch... with no backup document to work from. Does not seem well thought out process..... especially in a world where we are being told all the time to backup backup backup !

This was the response I received from the Story Maps team:

Hi Scott,

Can you clarify how you created the application and added data? When first entering the builder mode, did you choose to create a Feature Service and go through a wizard to publish a new feature service? Or did you instead choose to start from scratch importing images images from Flickr, CSV, or adding URL manually. If you did create a feature service, this will be a stand-alone layer that you should be able to import into ArcGIS Desktop. To find this layer, you can go to the original webmap description page and look under the Map Contents section. You should see the URL to the feature service. However, if you started from scratch and imported images from an external source, all the data has been embedded within the webmap data and not in a feature service. Unfortunately, there is not a way to export this type of map data. Let us know if you have any additional questions.

Could be that it behaves like map notes and can't be extracted?
