    <description>&lt;P&gt;I would like to be able to create a URL that will open my experience with specific layers switched on.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This page describes how to do this:&amp;nbsp;&lt;A href="https://doc.arcgis.com/en/experience-builder/latest/build-apps/url-parameters.htm" target="_blank"&gt;https://doc.arcgis.com/en/experience-builder/latest/build-apps/url-parameters.htm:&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="SarahNoakes1_0-1736778092395.png" style="width: 400px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/123195iA33CD064D6AD4409/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="SarahNoakes1_0-1736778092395.png" alt="SarahNoakes1_0-1736778092395.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;However you need to define the visibility for EVERY layer, which quickly becomes verbose, and if you have a large number of layers in the map widget, it's unusable.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Please update this so that you only need to define which map widget - this should be the name used in Experience Builder rather than the behind-the-scenes-id, and the layers that should be visible in the experience.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P data-unlink="true"&gt;E.g.&amp;nbsp;https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/&lt;EM&gt;EXP_ID&lt;/EM&gt;/?layer_visibility:&lt;EM&gt;map-widget-name&lt;/EM&gt;,&lt;EM&gt;layer1,layer2&lt;/EM&gt;,&lt;EM&gt;layer3&lt;/EM&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
