Creating a new map using ArcGISRuntimeEnvironment.createObject

KyleSchultz1

I have this block of code

MapView{
id:mapView
anchors.fill: parent
Component.onCompleted: {

mapView.map = ArcGISRuntimeEnvironment.createObject("Map", {"initUrl": 'https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=c74acddfcb1844eb90f8f9d40be2c823'});

}
}

I want to create a map within mapView but the result is just a gray screen. Is there a correct method of doing this? Because I will need to be able to create x amount of maps. And can't declare each one specifically.

Couple of problems here

1) This webmap is very old (1.7) and not supported by Runtime. Runtime only supports webmaps v2.0 or higher. https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=c74acddfcb1844eb90f8f9d40be2c823

If you run the above code with this item id "c74acddfcb1844eb90f8f9d40be2c823" it should throw you an error stating that the webmap is not supported.

2) initUrl works if webmap is unsecured or you append a token within the url. 

3) Using itemId is same as initUrl. When using item id you need to give the portal url. With initUrl you have the complete URL with itemId . It just another way, plus you can use with the portal properties when using itemId

4) In your case you have a unsecured webmap with a secured layer inside. The above code would work for this scenario and also for scenario if you load the secured webmap. As long as secured webmap or secured layer belong to the same portal.
