Center a web map

JohnGessford — Sat, 11 Dec 2021 09:16:39 GMT

I'm new to all this, created a web map, can see it on a web page by using copying sample code. Can I re-center my web map by setting the [center] value in the config options. I tried below but it seems to be ignored.

configOptions = {
 webmap: "eaab774a02b94ca6b8d8981c01652e6e",
 title: "",
 subtitle: "",
 //www.arcgis.com sharing url is used. modify this if yours is different
 sharingurl: "https://www.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items",
 center: [-117.895287, 33.745709]
 };‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Have you tried re-centering the webmap that it is pulling from?

I need to change it dynamically, I'll be presenting this map for many different addresses. I know I can do this on a Basic map, but I need to overlay demographics data on the map and the only way I can see to do that is with a pre-defined web map.

John,

A web map get set to a JS API map object so just use map.centerAt(your map point);
