"Other Layers" data does not show up in shared project

Question

I have added a feature service and web map to my "Other Layers" using the "Add Data" > "Web Maps and Layers" option.  Both are hosted in AGOL and shared with the same people and groups that my BA project is shared with.  When I share the project with my co-workers they are not able to see the data contained in "Other Layers".  In fact I think that they don't have an "Other Layers" dropdown until they manually add data to the project.  Is there a way to share a project that contains all of the feature layers and web maps that will be used for analysis pre-loaded and ready to view by others?

Thank you!

Hi Dan,

Great news! In a recent release, Business Analyst Web App added this enhancement that was requested by you and several other users.

Now you can share Web map and feature services with other Project users in your organization. Here is how:

* Add a web map or feature service using "Add Data" > "Web Maps and Layers". This will be added in the new Web Maps and Layers section in the project table.
* Right click on the action menu and click on “Share with projects users”.

Next share the project with your entire organization or individual users to allow other project users to see the shared web map or feature layer.

Thanks,

Hi Dan,

Thanks for raising the concern!

We have limited the import zip file records to 100 at a time for performance stability. A workaround for this would be to chunk the shapefile into two and import it two separate times.

We totally understand if this doesn’t fit the need of your use case. We are investigating ways to raise the import records limit.

Thank you,

Also, I just tried loading a shapefile with 176 point features into my project hoping that other users will be able to view them.  I received a message that only 100 records can be imported at a time.  This seems like a very low limit.
