We use Esri's basemaps for many purposes, including data collection in Collector for ArcGIS. Different basemaps are viewable at different scales. In some cases these scales are not stated. As an example, here are three similar basemap items: https://nps.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=3175cf5b9e9f47f284c7b7d3c8d5b387 - has no scale information, but links to: http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=5e9b3685f4c24d8781073dd928ebda50 - has no scale information, but links to: http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=a284a9b99b3446a3910d4144a50990f6 - with scale information, which may or may not apply to items 1 and 2?

Given the administrative burden of managing a large organization with user accounts that are not searchable by last name we believe supporting search on last name is a reasonable Idea: When using a SAML-based identity provider for an ArcGIS Online organization the givenname attribute is passed from the identity provider to ArcGIS Online.
