    <title>idea Replace Layer in All Maps in ArcGIS Enterprise Ideas</title>
    <link>https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-ideas/replace-layer-in-all-maps/idi-p/1571731</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;I'd like the ability to identify dependent maps, by layer, and ideally to be able to swap out the layer in all maps that use it (a bulk operation).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Use case examples:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;New organizational basemap.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Referenced data schema changes that break maps.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Governance for when non-authoritative layers are created and used.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;P&gt;Structurally, I imagine it would not be complex. It would require some kind of log (possibly indexed) on the Portal service info, or more likely a dedicated table for it in the Portal database. Then the application UI components to identify the maps &amp;amp; replace the layer in them.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Yes, layers can be changed in the Map Viewer, and yes they can be changed in the &lt;A title="ArcGIS Assistant" href="https://assistant.esri-ps.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;ArcGIS Assistant&lt;/A&gt;; but not in bulk, and the ArcGIS Assistant in particular is cumbersome for such an operation.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
