Dashboard Legend: Changing or Hiding Displayed Field Names

Clinton_Lunn — Wed, 19 Jul 2023 01:56:57 GMT

I'm working with a dashboard and trying to find a way to modify or hide the displayed field names from the attribute table in the legend. The webmap I'm using includes several sublayers and some of the field names are not user-friendly.

Specifically, I want to change or hide a field named "Cases_28_days" to something like "Cases: 28 Days", or hide it completely. For reference, the issue is visible on this COVID dashboard (see screenshot below to where legend is opened in the map) where the field/column names from the attribute table are displayed in the legend.

Has anyone encountered this and found a solution?

The legend comes from the webmap. You will need to configure the fields in the webmap used in your Dashboard, to change the legend.

Jen,

Thanks for the reply! It took a few minutes to figure out because I have been using the Map Viewer Classic. To do this, I needed to open and save the map in the newer Map Viewer.

In Map Viewer Classic - it is done using the configure attributes link in the pop-up configuration panel.
