Commencer avec Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS

Question

Vous pouvez créer des applications puissantes de système d'information géographique (SIG) qui fonctionnent sur n'importe quel appareil en utilisant Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS d'Esri, une fonctionnalité disponible dans ArcGIS Online et Portal for ArcGIS. Lors de ce webinaire, Eamonn Doyle (Directeur Technique) et Michael Kelly (Ingénieur Commercial Technique) d'Esri Ireland vous montreront comment construire rapidement des applications web qui mettent en valeur vos données, configurer des widgets (pour interroger les données, effectuer des analyses et d'autres tâches), et choisir l'apparence et la convivialité de votre application. Vous apprendrez également comment partager votre application avec votre organisation ou le public via la plateforme ArcGIS ou déployée sur votre propre serveur web. Les développeurs recevront aussi des conseils sur la personnalisation de Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS pour répondre à leurs besoins spécifiques.

The slide deck from the webinar area available here. You can also find a short video on how to add a custom widget to the Developer Edition here - make sure to copy the widget eSearch folder, not the root eSearch folder

Webinar Q&A Custom widget using a geo-processing tool published as a service? I'm not sure what this was in relation to. Documentation relation to the Geoprocessing widget is available here. You are able to use custom geoprocessing services with this widget as necessary. Is there a geocoder rest service for GeoDirectory currently available for use? Yes. Esri Ireland have an ArcGIS Locator configured for GeoDirectory. This Locator can be published as a RESTful web service. The Locator is only available via a Professional Services installation project. The end user must have an existing licence with GeoDirectory. Please contact your Customer Success Manager for more details. For an Intranet app, do you register webapp builder running from your web server within DMZ (with web adaptor) or from your GIS server? For an intranet app, ideally you should use Portal for ArcGIS, which is essentially an internal only version ArcGIS Online. In this case you can use the Web AppBuilder embedded edition to build your App and deploy to your Portal. However you may also build a webmap that references services from either your web adaptor end point or your internal server end point and use that webmap in an application built using Web AppBuilder. IN a case where the internal server end points are used the app will only be useable on your intranet. Can you please email the slides URL address (azurewebsites…)? All links provided in email above. Does Location widget convert IG to ITM accurately? Yes. For highest precision you need to use the NTv2 transformation available with the 10.3.1 install (or from Esri Ireland) and install same correctly on your ArcGIS for Server instance. Will the last section with the cmd etc be available as a youtube video? The command I was using/trying to use was "echo %COMPUTERNAME%.%USERDNSDOMAIN%". However I had a typo in the command so just got it from the running application. Please see links in email above for the YouTube video. The additional video goes through registering the Developer Edition, as well as adding custom widgets so that would probably be the best place to start. Can navigation widget provide voice enabled directions within app? The Directions widget does not provide voice enabled directions within the app. However, the new Navigator for ArcGIS app does so that might be worth looking at. The co-ordinates on lower left, is it possible to have this in terms of some co-ordinate system like ITM? It can indeed. Check out the documentation for the Coordinate widget here. By default, coordinates are displayed in current map’s coordinate system. To get coordinates in other coordinate systems, you need to add them and specify appropriate transformations as necessary. For the chart widget can you import a polygon from shp? The documentation for the Chart widget is available here. You would need to publish the shapefile to ArcGIS Online as a feature layer and configure the Chart widget appropriately. How do you load in your web map if using the developer edition? The same 'builder' available in ArcGIS Online comes with the Web AppBuilder Developer Edition. From the builder you can select any webmaps accessible from the account used to register the Developer Edition of Web AppBuilder. Can I link to a few pdfs within web app builder? Not from a feature layer but from the application via a selection from a widget? I'm not sure what you mean by this. Where would the pdf links come from? If you email me back with further details I can look into this. Where is the draw data stored when you select "add as operational layers"? The draw data is stored in temporary storage. This allows you to use the input points/lines/polygons within other widgets. Once the page is refreshed the data is deleted. Hi, which widgets consume credits? So far you mentioned Analysis widget, any other? I'm just after going through the Web AppBuilder widgets there. If you read the documentation for any widgets you intend on using, you can see what ones use credits. From my understanding, the following widgets can consume credits: Analysis widget Directions widget Geoprocessing widget Note there is an option to 'Show credits' that will be used within the Analysis widget. Do all the widgets work with IE 9? We have had some performance issues with WAB in IE9. Judging by browser support in the documentation, Internet Explorer 8+ is supported. I haven't encountered any problems, but I wouldn't be an IE9 user. If you are encountering problems I would recommend you get in touch with support to try and resolve. How do I define groups? For example I want some people in my organisation and some third parties to view the map. How do I control this? Groups are defined within your ArcGIS Online account. Guidelines on how to create them are available here. Each member of the group must have an ArcGIS Online user account. If you need users from outside of your organisation to join the group, you would designate it as 'Public' so those users could search for and find the group. Will you be able to show how to change the text colour in the links option...in the older app was white, the latest tabbed app is purple...how to you change it to white? You can embed some HTML with inline styling in order to overwrite the colour. Something like this should do the trick:

LinkName

instead of just putting in LinkName. How I can download the app we just created? How can I take a copy of an app created by another user and edit it? You can't copy an app created by another user unless you have their credentials. You can then use ArcGIS Online Assistant to copy the application to your account. However, if the webmap and its layers are public you can 'Save As' the webmap to your account. Then configure the same web application from your account. How accurate is the elevation widget really for Irish locations? What is it based on? To be honest, I haven't tested how accurate it is. But I think it gives you a good indication of the elevation of an area. There is no Esri elevation widget available for Web AppBuilder (although there is an open source one available). There is, however, an Elevation Profile template app, the code of which is open source and available on GitHub. This uses the Profile Task to create profiles along input lines from which a profile graph can be created. Further details on the geoprocessing service used for this is available here.
