Using the 'Near Me' Widget without ArcGIS Server?

CarlTownsend2

Is there a way to use the Near Me widget on a public map without having to go through ArcGIS Server? It uses service credits and I was wondering if there was a way to set up a public web map that uses this tool, and the credits, but to only go through an ArcGIS Online organisational account. I.E. is there a way to store a user account log in credentials on AGOL so that this widget can use them?

Carl,

This is a good question. Take a look at this link:

A similar question is asked with a potential answer. I am not sure if that helps or not.

Hi Carl,

You can set up a proxy to do this. Take a look at the following help document:

Thanks, those looks interesting. I found another solution, which doesn't require credits, or an arcgis online login

I had an existing address point feature created from parcels containing the civic address which I uploaded and use that in the widget instead of the default geocoder.

Carl Townsend‌ You are correct - you can use your own locator service and that will not consume credits. Here are the instructions for configuring the widget in ArcGIS Online or Portal for ArcGIS:

I would like to note that Near Me does not consume credits unless routing is enabled and configured.

Hi Allison, could the Near Me widget documentation you and I posted here be updated to reflect this fact?

Moving forward, how about being able to store a user credential with AGOL (In the settings) so that public maps could use widgets that consume service credits? Not everybody is going to be adopting ArcGIS Server. Can this capability be added to AGOL in a future release?

Thanks Allison, I was looking at that, but wanted it to be setup for an individual feature and/or map to access, but I see it's the option for all features and maps that will use the widgets. I will try that out and see!

Does it have to be a level 1 or 2 user account?
