How can I remove duplicate labels on a Feature Layer in ArcGIS Online?
In case you have authored the layer in ArcGIS Desktop, You could control duplicate labels while authoring. Working with duplicate labels—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop
Not sure of any option on AGOL though.
Can you share your web map? If the duplicate labels weren't a result of how the data is created, check to see if there are two layers with labels in the map. If there is only one operational layer, try expanding the basemap layer to see if there are any reference layers displaying:
Choose basemap—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS
Any more advice on this? I had set up my layers to remove duplicate label in Pro and then published from there, but then that setting was not maintained in my feature layer and I have too many labels.
As far as I know, there is still no option to "remove duplicate labels". But maybe there is now a way to do this by using an Arcade Expression...?
Are there duplicate values in your dataset or has the layer been added multiple times to the web map?

Hi Kelly,
Thank you for your answer.
There are no duplicated features in my layer and the layer has not been added multiple times in the web map.
Here is an example of the scenario:
- There is a (1) Hosted Feature Layer added to my web map which contains say 20 features / parcels.
- Each parcel has an individual Object ID, and other attributes in a series of fields.
- There is also a field containing ownership information.
- Multiple features/parcels can have the same ownership information.
- If I want to display ownership labels for each parcel, therefore, my map will display multiple times the same owner's name wince multiple parcels have the same ownership attribute.
I would like to be able to remove the duplicated owner names from the labels and display the name only once even if the name comes up multiple times in my attribute table. This is possible when using "remove all duplicates" in ArcGIS Pro Labeling Properties and in ArcMap as well. I would rather not have to remove the repeated owner's names from my attribute table or merge features.
Please let me know if this is of any help, or if I am making things more confusing...
Thank you!

Has there been any update on this topic? I'm having a similar issue with the zoning map I maintain for a municipal government. The duplicate labels I want to remove are those for the streets layer. I don't want to merge the segments together because each segment has its own address range. I want to keep each individual segment but only have one label like I do in my ArcGIS Pro document.
We're encountering this too. We have an app/experience for our DPW that we've created and our streets layer has multiple segments with address ranges for each segment. I'd love to be able to remove duplicates like you can in Pro so that each segment isn't labeled on the web map.
