topic Screening widget in ArcGIS Experience Builder Questions

Screening widget

Lisetelvieira — Fri, 30 May 2025 08:44:36 GMT

In the Web App Builder application, there is a widget (Screening) that allows creating PDF reports based on the contents of a specific area. This area can be drawn as a polygon or selected from an existing record in a table. When migrating to the Experience Builder application, I can't find a tool that offers the same functionality. The 'Near Me' widget performs an analysis based on an area drawn at the moment and does not allow exporting the data to a PDF report—it only allows exporting to CSV, and only for individual variables.
Is there any widget that allows me to do what I need?

Hello @Lisetelvieira,

The docs mention that the equivalent to the WAB 'Screening' widget in EXB is indeed the 'Near me'.

On you specific question, "The 'Near Me' widget (...) does not allow exporting the data to a PDF report—it only allows exporting to CSV, and only for individual variables", I read the following: "In the (ArcGIS Online) February 2025 update, we added support to export Near Me results as PDF file." (Source)

I also see it documented here: "The Near Me widget can export results to .pdf, .csv, .json, and, .geojson files."

Are you using ArcGIS Enterprise maybe?

Hi @Lisetelvieira the Near Me widget should allow export to PDF, but it only comes up as an option when you click the export button at the very top of the results list:

This blog post also has some info on the PDF report in the Near Me widget that might be useful.

Hope that helps!
