how can i reset a filtered layer in web map when i setup new filter widget in experience builder?

Hello,

In a web map, there's a layer which i have a filter set to hide all records (polygons)

and in experience builder, i want to set up a filter widget and allow user to select records with a query, but the filter widget didn't work, because that layer in web map has a filter to filter out all records.

In Web App Builder, the Filter widget has a setting to uncheck "Append any expression to existing map filter. (ie, remove the existing filter in the web map)

How can I do this in Experience Builder?

please help and thanks a lot!!!

Wilson

If I understand your goal, you want the all of the features to be turned off on the initial load and have some of them appear after the user presses the filter. This would best be accomplished by removing the filter from your webmap and using the methodology from this post. https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-experience-builder-questions/overwrite-default-map-filter/m-p/1269114
