I suspect you may be deploying under IIS since you are using active directory. If the web site you have deployed to has Windows authentication enabled make sure all users have read permissions on the widgets folders and files (perhaps enable anonymous access to test calling one of the widget files). Hope this helps Jon

Hi, I have a number of feature layers that are refreshing. These are hosted on an ArcGIS Server 10.4.1 (not ArcGIS online or Portal hosting server). When added to a web map (and web app builder app) they are in 'On Demand Mode' with a tile size of 512 x 512. These layers do not contain many features and I believe that the performance of refreshing them would improve if a single 'snapshot' request was made rather than 4-8 requests for tiles (depending on the monitor resolution). I have read the FeatureLayer documentation and can only find references to setting the mode and tile sizes in the constructor. Does anybody know if it is possible to change these after a layer has been constructed or where in the web app builder code I would start looking to change how these layers are constructed? Many thanks Jon

Hi All, I have created a custom widget to allow users to customise an application's css without having to edit the files. I mostly use this when users ask for particular UI components to be hidden to reduce complexity. This is my first effort at sharing a custom widget publicly. All the details are on GitHub at https://github.com/jonlynch/esri-webappbuilder-customCSS-widget where I welcome issues.

We also had problems using ESRI's example code from CreateMapSDDraft—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop to update draft service definitions. We used an XML beautifier to inspect the ssd_draft to make sure that all nodes that are referenced actually exist. I can't remember exactly but one or two minor changes were required to make it work.

Have you made sure you have the correct port (http://localhost:XXXX? I can't remember which it is at the moment but it's in the docs. I had no problem using WAB on a Mac.

Hi all, I have recently started writing a few widgets and am wondering if anyone has a testing workflow they can recommend. I have used both Jasmine for unit testing and Nightwatch for end to end testing on other JavaScript projects. I can imagine creating a whole app using the widget and then running Nightwatch on it, but would like to hear how people unit test their widgets. Any pointers to resources or examples would be very welcome. Cheers Jon
