Limit downloading options

Hello everybody!!

Quick question on ArcGIS HUB. Is there a way to only show the end-user the option to download shapefiles and not CSV, KML, or GeoJSON?

Thanks

Hi - I’m curious to hear about your purpose for limiting download format options.

Our experience indicates more formats are better for reuse by a broad range of users.

Hi @AndrewTurner

I am wondering the same thing - if we could remove a download option. I am hearing that download Excel just hangs for some of our *hosted downloads.* We are trying to resolve a long standing issue with one of our datasets in hub when registering layers from AGS to AGOL. We moved to hosted AGOL layer and enabled hosted downloads as recommended by the hub team. It's wonderful in CSV, but it's hanging in Excel. I would be thrilled to resolve this one layer by striking out Excel.

This is the hosted layer view. The original hosted is private because it has editing enabled. - https://dcgis.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=f4af92a9bba84bf0942a64fe7ada33fe
