Quick report 1.4

HI,

I found the video of new quick report template (1.4 version) with sign in function on the website, and it is said that this version is now available, but I can not find it.

Currently, I am using the 1.3 version.

Thanks,

Junxuan

If you create a new app (you need to sign in first) using QuickReport template from AppStudio for ArcGIS. It will be based on version 1.4.

Alternatively, if you download the Appstudio desktop 1.4 AppStudio for ArcGIS | ArcGIS. You can create Quick Report app 1.4 using our template.

Yes, We did the same procedure. But no Sign-in interface shows. I am not sure if this is a version issue or do I need to enable the sign in function somewhere?

Actually, there are some other new features in version 1.4 according to the video, but none of them shows.

Sign in will only show for a secured feature layer. For instance if you try this secured featurelayer (id=0) it should show sign in dialog.

Got it. Thank you very much! But how to get a secured feature layer? Is it right to use Arcgis server? And does it need any cost?

You can have a secured Feature Layer from either an ArcGIS Org account or ArcGIS Server. If you are using website to create an application. There is no cost. If you are using App Studio Desktop, just make sure you have a standard license.

Navigate to your Organization
Click on the My Content tab

Click on the top right Share button
Uncheck Everyone (public) option

HI,

Currently, we have the sign-in interface for the app and we are using the secured feature layer.

But the sign-in interface only pops up for the first time. Run the app for the second time, it just directs to the main page. How can we solve this problem? Or how to clear sign in information?

Thanks,

Junxuan

Yes this is by design. Because the credentials (encrypted) get stored locally on the device in the settings file. And it continues to use the credentials once the token expires.

In the next release we are adding the Logout functionality which will let user to clear the credentials on the client.

In the current version 1.4 if you are using on desktop, if you would like you can go ahead and delete the cache folder and the settings file under settings folder. The settings file name is same as the app id. This should clear the credentials

C:\Users\<user>\ArcGIS\AppStudio

I hope this helps.

Hi Junxuan,

Thank you for bringing out this question. QuickReport 2.0 now provides a sign-out option in the Settings page.

You can update your app with AppStudio Quick Report 2.0 template. After you sign in, click on the hamburger menu on the top left, Click on the Settings, here you will see a sign out option. I hope this will help.

Thanks,

Tina
