Web AppBuilder

[PaigeSpee]

Web AppBuilder is a configurable HTML5/JavaScript-based application that will be a new feature of ArcGIS Online and Portal for ArcGIS. It will help you create web apps without having to write any code.  Watch a demo of Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS | Esri Video presented by Esri Product Manager  Julie Powell at this year's DevSummit.

Tarig,

One more thing, could you please tell me when the following error message get output?

"

stream.js:94

      throw er; // Unhandled stream error in pipe.

            ^

Error: connect ECONNREFUSED

    at errnoException (net.js:904:11)

    at Object.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (net.js:895:19)

"

Is it got output when you try to start nodejs immediately or it's got output when you try to log into Portal in browser after you start nodejs?

Thanks!

I get the error when I try to log into Portal in browser after the nodejs start.

" stream.js:94 ....

Thanks

Tarig

For anyone who can not log into Portal for ArcGIS / ArcGIS Online successfully in Web AppBuilder beta2, please post the question with your exact steps and error messages to the Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS group, thanks!

Is this Web AppBuilder the same as the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex? only this time the language is in JavaScript instead of Flex?  I'm thinking since the ArcGIS Flex API and Silverlight API is going away and ArcGIS JavaScript API is the main focus now, so it have an AppBuilder / Viewer for JavaScript?  If so will it  act the same way as the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex, in term of downloading the AppBuilder --> configure it --> modify or develop on top off it if needed?  Thanks,

[TedCronin]

Essentially, yes.  They are striving to reach parity with Flex Builder.  You should try the beta.

Tate:

A big difference is that you can not add your own hosted services, only web maps from a portal such as AGOL.  I took a training class on Javascript API and the instructor said the only way to add your own services with the initial releas,e that should be arriving in a few months, was to build a custom widget which would require programming experience as opposed to simply making configuration changes.  Hopefully this policy will change.  There is an idea on ideas.arcgis.com with subject Web App Builder that is asking for this direct functionality.

[TateM]

So when you published your own services, you have basically have 2 options; publish to AGOL/portal to use the Web App builder, or create a stand alone web-map application using ArcGIS for JavaScript API.

Got the app builder to run to the point where I "Specify the URL to your organization or Portal for ArcGIS" I enter the organizational ArcGIS online account url, then enter user name and password. It then clears the user name and password when I click next. If I hit back it has changed the url. (https to http and added caps) I have attached 2 images showing this.

Then it goes to this.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

In the first screen shot, I enter "https://..... " then when I select "continue" it changes to http.

Bill Lotz‌ - just for testing, and assuming you have admin rights for that organization, does it work if you (at least temporarily) uncheck the "Allow access to the organization through SSL only." setting on the Organization->Security->Policies setting?
