Problem when attempting to create new feature in Fieldmaps ("No Visible Layers")

AndrewMulford1 — Thu, 20 Jul 2023 22:15:39 GMT

I am using fieldmaps app version 23.2.2

I published a feature service and saved a map in AGOL. I have made sure that the feature has editing enabled (including add feature). I have tested the editing capability in AGOL and it is indeed editable. When I open the map I created in FieldMaps and attempt to collect a new feature (hit the plus button) I get the following message "No Visible Layers, use the layers tool to toggle the visibility of your collection layers".

The editable layer that I am attempting to use is toggled on and visible in the map within FieldMaps however I am unable to edit it.

Hi @AndrewMulford1 , the message you've described is discussed here: https://support.esri.com/en-us/knowledge-base/problem-the-message-no-visible-layers-is-displayed-in-a-000028433

Could it possibly be that you're working with layers that have relationships?

Glen! you are a hero. Thank you so much for connecting me with this resource. It was a super easy workaround for the issue that I was facing.

Yes I was working with a layer with a related inspection table and toggling the "related types" setting in field maps solved my problem.
