Can anyone tell me if ArcGIS Explorer for iPhone supports attachments from an enterprize Db shared to ArcGIS Online? I can see them from the AGO viewer but not from Explorer.
Build your webmap using that URL.
Configure the popup, save the map, and see if the Attachments are listed in the popup.

To all affected by this issue.
While this thread does indicate work flows to get around this issue, a bug has been logged regarding the functionality of added an map service from ArcGIS for Server to a web map in ArcGIS Online and the lack of pop ups in Explorer for iOS. The bug information goes as follows:
NIM102374 : Attachments are disabled when an ArcGIS for Server map service is consumed, and the feature layer URL must be added to an ArcGIS Online web map to use attachments in Explorer for ArcGIS on iOS.
For now, you will need to add the service using the layer URL rather than the map server URL in order for pop ups to be maintained in Explorer for iOS. This issue has been submitted to the development team for Explorer for iOS. For further information on a fix date, you are welcome to open a case with Esri Technical Support and they can attach your case to the bug so you may follow the status of it through your Esri Global account or you have the option to email the development team for Explorer for iOS here: Explorer4ArcGIS@esri.com.
hi
I have attachments that are PDFs and they show up in explorer but the ones that are .TIFS do not.
I am working on an iPad, is there any reason they wouldn't at least show up in the list.
also
I too just added the REST service for the entire mapservice, not each individual layer.
this is what I did for the layer that is displaying the PDF attachments.
Lane and Jeff,
You don't have to re-publish your services. It just a matter of building your web map differently from the services you already published.
As Heather wrote when using the rest URL make sure you include the layer number.

We're doing the same thing Jeff.
Lane,
Same issue with us. Published map service from 10.2.1 enterprise server and no attachment links visible in Explorer (iPad). I understand Mark and Heather about the full REST URL to the layer, but we are publishing from a dataset in the MXD and I'm not sure we want to break those features apart and publish a ton of different services. Our attachments work fine with the AGO viewer and the old ArcGIS app. Seems like it might be a bug.

Hmmm. I think I did add from the Add>Search for layers. I'll give your method a try.
Will let you know.
I just discovered that my attachments work as is in the old ArcGIS app, but not in Explorer.
Thanks,
Lane
When you create your web map, if you add the layer from web and put in the full rest URL to the layer when you author the webmap, ex..http:// sampleserver1.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/TaxParcel/AssessorsLiveLayers/MapServer/1http://sampleserver1.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/TaxParcel/AssessorsLiveLayers/MapServer/1
Configure the Popup, save the map. Opening the map in Explorer on the Iphone may show the links to the attachments. (it worked in my test)
I reproduce what you were seeing with attachments or rather not seeing when I added the service to the map by "Searching for layer" and entering my server, and adding the layer from the list. When I entered the full url to the layer as pictured above, the attachements were accessible in Explorer on the Iphone.
Note the the URL above does not have any attachments it is just an example of what I mean by full URL to the layer.
For your map you can get the full URL by clicking description on the menu.
From the Service rest endpoint click on the layer, and copy the full URL from the browser address.
Mine was a map service with two attached tiffs and a jpg per water valve.

How did you share your enterprise DB with ArcGIS Online?
I shared one from ArcMap by Publishing a Service (Feature Service) to my organization. I created a web map with ArcGIS online and opened the map in Explorer for ArcGIS on the Iphone, and the Feature attachement was accessible. In my case it was a .jpg image and clicking on it in the attribute list displayed the image on the phone.
