Why can't users in my group edit the map that is in the group's content?

AidaGuhlin

I created a group in my ArcGIS Online account and added a map that I had created to it and then edited all settings so that way people in the group could edit the map. However, they can only save a copy of the map with their edits, which is obviously not the point. I did some sleuthing and got to this page: Enable colleagues to update your maps and apps | ArcGIS Blog  which has helpful info if my settings page looked like that, but as you can see, it doesn't. Unless I'm missing some magic pages here, I don't have the same ArcGIS Online account apparently as the one noted. I've attached what the group settings looks like to me, and would love any other suggestions/explanations/advice. Thankfully, our project isn't necessarily time sensitive, but since we're an educational organization, I would love to have this figured out so more projects can go forward with ArcGIS Online in the future.

Hey Aida,

The option to create share ownership groups is only exposed to org admins right now.

Share items to group with capability to update items

Administrators can create groups that allow members of the group to update items shared with that group. Updates to an item can include changes to the item details and updates to the content. When members share an item to such a group, they remain the owner of the item. Other group members can update the item. For example, they can add layers to a map and save the map with the updated content. Members of these groups can also edit hosted feature layers that have been shared to the group with full editing control even if the layer is not editable. For example, a public hosted feature layer that isn't editable can be shared to the group and members of the group would have full editing control of the layer. At this time, item update capability is intended for use with item details and the contents of maps and configurable apps.

If you are a member of a group with this item update capability, the Share button in My Content has a drop-down arrow with two options: Access andAccess and update capabilities. Choose Access and update capabilities to share items to groups with the update capability. You only see your groups with this capability when you choose this option. Choose Access to share items with everyone (public), your organization, or groups without the item update capability.
