Cannot See New Field When Adding a Point

JoshuaKing

Greetings, 

I am not sure if this question has a solution, but I could not find a solution that worked for me.  I created a number of feature layers in ArcGIS Online and then added them to a map.  I opened the map in Field Maps and began to add points in the various layers and everything worked great.  Later, I added some new fields to the feature layers, which I can see in the table view in the map, but when I create a point in Field Maps, I cannot see the new fields to fill out.  I reloaded the map in the Field Maps app, but had no success.  In other posts, some suggested removing and adding the feature layers, but this would be extremely time consuming and seems like it should be unnecessary.  Has anyone had this problem and solved it without removing and adding the layers to the map again?

Thank you in advance, 

Josh

If you don't know if you are using forms you are probably not using them. You should probably start using them - you can convert the pop-up to a form with just a click of the button. I suspect the issue is that when the field is added to pop-up in Map Viewer the "editable" property is not set to true. This means it will not be available for editing in Field Maps iOS/Android. If you update the pop-up using Map Viewer Classic you can ensure the field is editable and visible in the pop-up.

I would highly recommend you use the Field Maps web app (https://arcgis.com/apps/fieldmaps) to convert the pop-up to a form. There are many more capabilities offered by forms. Forms are honored in Field Maps, Map Viewer, and other newer Esri web apps. You can also edit forms directly in Map Viewer using the forms action:

You can find additional information about configuring forms here.
