Geolocation has been disabled in this document by Feature Policy - Operations Dashboard

BCBen

Hi There,

I created an Operations Dashboard with an Embedded Content window. In that window I have a WAB that automatically opens a widget to search for the nearest point feature. The WAB works fine on it's own; however, when I click the "Find My Location" icon on the widget, I receive the message "Geolocation has been disabled in this document by Feature Policy". On my mobile, I receive "User denied Geolocation". 

I understand that you can fix this in an iframe by adding allow="geolocation" as per: https://community.esri.com/people/geonb_bernie/blog/2019/08/27/my-location-widget-and-iframes but how do I do this in an Operations Dashboard?

Thanks for your help!

Hi Ben Arril‌,

Thanks for the post - I think the issue you present here is interesting because it looks like the Web AppBuilder app is embedded in the dashboard, then the dashboard is embedded in the web experience. I gave this a quick test on my end, and when accessing the My Location widget in the dashboard before embedding it in the web experience, I didn't see any issues. However when I add the dashboard to the web experience, I do see the issue you are describing. 

I think this bug explains that issue: BUG-000129375: Creating a Web AppBuilder application using a Near M..  - if you are able to embed the web app directly in the web experience then the workaround might work here. We also have a similar issue logged for embedding apps that use the My Location widget in Hub sites. I would also be happy to facilitate getting a new issue logged specifically for your scenario, and we could get your account attached from our end. 

Thanks,

-Peter
