Many of you have been asking for the parity matrix for individual widgets. As some Web AppBuilder widgets are available in Experience Builder, functionality in these widgets is not yet complete, such as the ability to split or merge geometries in the Edit widget. Please take a look at the two attachments for the individual widget and app framework migration status and plan. Please note that attachments only list features that are not yet available in the latest release of Experience Builder in ArcGIS Online. For ArcGIS Enterprise users, new features in ArcGIS Online will be picked up by ArcGIS Enterprise later.
The attachments will be updated at each release. Please come back and check them out periodically.
Is there a time when the spy glass option will added to the swipe widget? I noticed that it is not planned according to the ESRI documentation.
I have used this option for years, comparing bedrock geology to the depth of bedrock. It's very nice to zoom into smaller locations when your looking at state wide datasets. It's also a great tool for k-12 educators as well because it 'cool' for kids to look through the 'glass' so to speak.
I currently have it set up in the Web AppBuilder but this support is going away and I'd like to update our apps using Experience Builder. It would be nice to have the full function of the swipe app available before the support of the old app goes away.
Hi @IzabelaAquino ,
We have this in our backlog but this is the first request for this functionality from our user community, we will look into it if we hear more from our users.
In our company we used to add the Situation awareness widget to most our webapps because it really made it easier to summarize information in a clear, concise and more intuitive way for our clients. In Esperience Builder we have to use the Near Me widget but the display is not as satisfactory, the possibility of configuring the horizontal bar is sorely lacking.
Is there a timeline on when cut, merge, and reshape, are going to be added to the Edit widget in ExB?

@SusanaGasquez The BA widget in ExB will support the new Europe data source sometime in 2025.
Currently, the BA widget in ExB is working similar to the BA Web App (bao) to allow you specify a country and data source. This is very important feature as some countries offer multiple data sources (vintages). With regards to a workaround, it depends on which countries you are working with and the data source used to create the infographic for those countries. For example, the following ExB app contains a BA widget configured with the What's in my community? infographic. This specific template is built with Foursquare data that is available across multiple counties. Although the default setting is for United States, you can use this app in multiple counties by using the search bar or manually dropping a pin.
https://experience.arcgis.com/template/fe920ba4c38c4124bd4c0a70e6296072/page/Page/
Melbourne, Australia
Berlin, Germany
So basically, if your infographics is built from a data source that is available in multiple countries, you should be able to use that template across different countries. Please feel free to post any additional questions specific to the Business Analyst products under https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-business-analyst/ct-p/arcgis-business-analyst
Thanks,

@Jianxia @AlixVezina hi and thanks so much for sharing those comparison matrixes, they were extremely useful! I also have a question about the BAO widget which I don't see on the matrix, but it's certainly there. Do you have any pipeline notes? I am keen to have similar functionality as it is in WAB (e.g. depending on the geography, the tool would retrieve the reports available), at the moment I need to set up my country even if i am working on multiple ones. I saw the Europe option being in BETA in BAO, but still not here... I take any advice for a workaround in the meantime 🙂
Thanks!
Here's a matrix outlining the different versions and how they align: About release versions | ArcGIS Experience Builder
That is what I've seen as well. But "sometime after Enterprise 11.3" is a pretty wide range of days, unfortunately. I imagine their internal dev team must have a product plan, so it would be nice if they communicated that timeline.
@abureaux It's my understanding the updates go to AGO, then Enterprise, then the Dev. Edition.
I see AGO. I see Enterprise. I don't see references to EB:DE. Can that start to be added to these plans?
Personally, I don't use AGO, and I have no need to touch Enterprise EB since EB:DE exists (which is a good thing).
Minor clarifications were added to the Editing Functionality Matrix document today.
@Jianxia I agree with @MattiasEkström . We also use a hidden point data source layer, and the highlight of a point is barely visible on the screen. Adding a pushpin would be greatly appreciated. Furthermore, if we could also customize the type of pushpin for both locator sources and data sources, it would be ideal.The highlight of a line or polygon is fine, but the highlight for point data is not ideal and would be much better if we could use the same pins as the locator-type searches.
Thank you for the list. @Jianxia, are there plans to enable preset values based on url paramters in the Map Viewer's Smart Forms/Experience Builder's Editor Widget? That functionality exists in WebApp Builder (Documentation😞
This functionality is especially useful to mantain ID-consistency between a non-spatial database (for example administration tool of an authority) and the according GIS-representation.
@JianxiaLocator sources isn't suitable for us, we often use "hidden feature layers" as data sources for the search widget. It would be great if we could have the show on map action for the layer sources as well.
Or maybe some action to show the layer to combine with the filter action to get the same result.
Hi, I am interested in the upcoming tracking widget. Will this include just the ability to show current location and automatically refresh location on a given interval, (much like the 'check for location update' option in Web App Builder), without collecting any historical location data?
This is a need in Experience Builder right now.
@CaroleC , these capabilities in the Directions widget have dependency on Maps SDK. Your request has been added to a backlog issue.
@abureaux, the Records created message action comes with the locator source when you configure the search source. The layer source doesn't have it as the feature layer already has the feature. Indeed, graphics will be created for locations when the action is taken. This message action also applies to the Query widget.
@JianxiaI must be looking in the wrong place since I don't see "Show on map". Where would I find that option?
Thank you @Jianxia! I hope this will make it into the product plan!
I realized since I added my comment that we have unshared the shortlist I referenced, but I'm sure there are many examples out there that people are familiar with that can demonstrate the idea I had.
I have also raised a case no. 03634258 for the addition of text and arrows within experience builder.
We would love this to be added, very well used in Web App builder and stops the full migration to experience builder.
Many thanks
@abureaux , you can do so through the Records created message with the Show on map action.
@RobertAnderson3 , we will evaluate the request. Thanks for submitting it.
@Jianxia Are there any plans to add these items to the Driving Directions Widget in Experience Builder?
1) Print Driving Directions
2) Driving directions segment times (not just total time). For example, I have 3 stops, what is the time to each stop? This is currently available in WebApp Builder Driving Directions.
3) Feature layer as routing input.
Thank you.
Can we also add to the list "drop pin on map" for the Search widget? WAB could do this.
Thank you for this list! It's a great summary.
One of the limitations I've run into with apps we are trying to migrate is the lack of connectivity between the Map Widget and a View or Window. We were trying to replicate the Shortlist Story Map style as it's been a popular public viewing app as seen here: Infrastructure Projects (arcgis.com)
Currently there is no way to have the List and Feature Widget window occupy the same space and have the Feature Info display like in the Shortlist. When selected on the map, it highlights the feature in the List widget, but the user has to click it again to view the info. It's rather annoying for the end user I find.
I'm not sure if this would be something considered in the functionality matrix or not. I do have an enhancement logged for this, but wanted to bring it up here as well. ENH-000162330
@AlexErnst_IDPR , thank you for your feedback. Could you please submit an enhancement to Esri Support for the combo of options in Add Data like its counterpart in WAB?
@LindsayRaabe_FPCWA, the Draw text symbol in the document means the ability to draw labels or annotations. We'll be working on it. If drawing arrow is needed, please submit an enhancement request to Esri Support. Cc to @AlexErnst_IDPR
@DanielMast_DE, thanks for letting us know the importance of custom visible scales settings to your customers. There is an existing request for it (Enh-000148335).
@DevDesai, the search function is available in the Map Layers widget in Experience Builder in ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3.
@Jianxia Webapp Builder layer list search function is already available or plan in Experience Builder
