Subtype group layer

BenWalker1 — Mon, 08 Jan 2024 16:10:46 GMT

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone had any practical help / guides for using Utility Network data as a subtype group layer in Experience Builder. I really want to take advantage of being able to make fewer calls to the server, but most of the widgets, filter, query, edit etc will not work with Subtype group layers. I thought that perhaps I could configure the widgets to a non-subtype group layer, but it does not really work.

Anyone managed to get this to work? or is it too early to use Subtype group layers right now?

Thanks,

Ben.

@BenWalker1 Subtype group layers are not yet supported as a data source in Experience Builder, but are on the roadmap.

Hi Alix,

Do you have a rough idea of when it might be delivered? I am happy to be a tester once it is available

thanks

Ben

Hi Alix,

can I ask which Enterprise release version you are referring to?

And do you have a more specific date for this release?

Thanks, Jelmer.

Support is targeted to be added to the ArcGIS Online and Developer editions this fall first, and then would become available in the following Enterprise release, which I believe would be 11.5.

Thanks for the info Alix, the Developer edition would work for us; do you have a more specific date for the release?

Hi all,

Subtype group layer is already supported in Portal 11.4, ArcGIS Online(November 2024) and developer edition 1.15. Analysis and Print widget are not supported now and will be supported later.

Thanks,

@Ke_Xu Is there a limitation with certain widgets in the developer edition? I'm using version 1.16 and trying to configure the Map Layers widget. When using the customize layers none of my subtype layers are showing. If I add them the layers NOT as a Group Subtype before publishing from Pro then it shows.

Hi @LindseyStone,

Map Layers widget supports subtype group layer. I couldn't reproduce this issue. It works well on my end. Could you use this web map to have a try?

@Ke_Xu I can't get logged into that site. I have tried this group sub layer in Online, Developer Edition v 1.16 and Portal 11.3 with the map Layers. Below is a screenshot of what I'm seeing in the Custom Layers window in Map Layers. The Dimension layer and Dimension_ExpSubtype are set up as Subtype Group layers that I have published via Pro on my Portal. The Dimension_Exp NOT Subtype is adding that layer not as a group layer to my Pro Project. As you can see only the NOT Subtype is showing in that Custom layers.

Hi @LindseyStone,

The Dimension_ExpSubtype layer is not showing in Exb. Maybe it is the same as the BUG-000173271.

BUG-000173271 Unable to access the data that includes subtypes when publishing it as a map image in the Experience Builder Developer Edition version 1.16 while the 1.15 version works fine.

Solution:

A patch for ArcGIS Experience Builder (Developer Edition) version 1.16 has been released.
The patch package can be downloaded through this link: https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-experience-builder-sdk-resources/tree/master/patches

Thanks,

@Ke_Xu I had found that patch and installed it and same results. Just to emphasize in the live version of the app and you use the Map Layers, the subtype layers are there and I can interact with them. Where I cannot interact with them is when I'm in edit mode and click the Customize Layers button within the Map Layer Properties window. I see all the layers except for the subtype layers.

Hi @Ke_Xu

Is there an update for the expected timeline for supporting Analysis and Print widgets in Enterprise 11.5?

Cheers

Hi @Rob32,

In Enterprise 11.5, the Analysis widget supported subtype group layer.

The Print widget could also print legend. But it cannot generate report.

Thanks,
