When an offline package is downloaded it includes the offline layers along with the map definition (.mmap file) which includes information such as forms and popups (including the arcade expressions).  We have found many cases when a minor change is required to the online web map.  Currently, any minor change to the online web map requires the entire package to be re-downloaded.  This can be quite inconvenient to almost impossible in some scenarios. What would be incredibly useful is if the SDK provided map update functionality.  This would consist of updating the mobile_map.mmap definition for the pre-packaged area based on the current web map without requiring a full download.  With this functionality, fixing an arcade expression in the web map would no longer require the work force to download new packages     ...

I am trying to setup doing preplanned area scheduled update based on the capability.  It would seem to me this would be associated to the pre-planned area but from what I can find it looks like you do this through the OfflineMapSyncTask What I found is something along these lines: var task = await OfflineMapSyncTask.CreateAsync(map); var parameters = new OfflineMapSyncParameters { SyncDirection = SyncDirection.Download, PreplannedScheduledUpdatesOption = PreplannedScheduledUpdatesOption.DownloadAllUpdates }; var job = task.SyncOfflineMap(parameters); var results = await job.GetResultAsync(); Is this the proper way to download delta changes on the server for a preplanned area that has a daily update? ...

Something I have noticed is that we are sometimes needing to update just the WebMap part of an offline area (i.e., search change, arcade form change, etc.). All this requires on the server is an update to the Web Map and we do not need to recreate the entire package.  Unfortunately, on the client it seems like I need to do a complete download of the entire package.  With a large offline area this is prone to error.   Is there anyway in the SDK to just download the map changes?  If not this would be a good feature ...

If one does a GeoViewHolding on the map a magnifier pops up.  In FieldMaps that gets handled and implements the Dropped pin behavior.  I am trying to implement something similar but I cannot see what event is triggered after the magnifier appears and the user releases.  The SDK seems to already be implementing the behavior for the magnifier, but what event handler does one implement to capture the release   ...

Hi, I am really struggling with how one can use the SearchView in the toolkit on an ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1 portal.  I am still at 200.6 for Mobile API and Toolkit. The problem is that the authentication does not seem to recognize that a logged in user can use location services.  I have set in Portal the Configure utility services to use a AGOL user (user is a Creator/Admin).  I can use the search in a web map and do a location search which works. However, when I open the map with the SearchView it will prompt for a login.  If I try to enter my portal user, it will fail and ask again.  I have logging so I can see that it is the geocode service Url that is requesting authentication.  But it does not recognize the portal user as having permission.  This makes the SearchView unusable.  I have developed logic to read the Web Map configuration and create and add ISearchSource objects for each layer.  Which works really well, but this permission to use locator is making it not useable as a search tool ...
