Export Georeferenced PDF from InstantApps

LinzMess — Wed, 06 Aug 2025 17:50:07 GMT

I am using the Sidebar InstantApps template and have enabled the 'Export' function within 'Interactivity' -> 'Share'. I am able to export a PDF, however it appears the resulting PDF is not georeferenced. Is there a way to allow InstantApps users to export georeferenced PDFs that can then be used in applications such as Avenza?

Interesting. I don't know about the Instant Apps angle but I've found that exported PDFs from Experience Builder (using stock AGOL EB) *are* geoPDF'd

We'll take a look at adding support for this to Instant Apps in a future release.

@KellyHutchins

I have come across this same problem with one of my users. They need GeoPDF output from the Instant Apps we publish.

I have created an "Ideas" post for this issue:
