NearMe widget (ExpBuilder)

good morning fellow gis'ers. Yesterday i finished configuring the NearMeBeta widget in an experience, but i guess overnight that widget came out of beta and of course i got the alert/error saying analysis is not configured.

But when i try to reconfigure analysis, i cannot find the wanted layer(s) in the SelectData section in order to select them for analysis (screenshot shows only 2 groups of layers). Even though the webmap and the MapLayers widget both show all layer groups (screenshot show MapLayers widget displaying 3 groups of layers).

I even resorted to deleting yesterday's NearMe widget and started from scratch, but i still cant find the 3rd layer group in the SelectData option. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

@rVeloz, thanks for letting us know. There is a breaking change in the Near Me widget as you noticed. For more info, see the blog post https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-experience-builder-blog/what-s-new-in-near-me-october-2023/ba-p/1341720.

As for the issue in the widget after the release, we will take a look.

@rVeloz could you please share your web map url with us?

AzizaParveen, thanks for your reply. When you mentioned the webmap, i checked the sharing status of it and yup, i had not shared this new webmap to Everyone. I have now changed the share status and even though some of the layers may not be visible to everyone, all layer groups are now accessible in the widget configuration, at least to me. I am hoping they will be visible in the app to our staff as well.

thanks so much for your suggestion because that made me examine the webmap status.
