Problem in Popup with URL without HTTP/HTTPS

FlavieMORAUX1 — Wed, 14 Jun 2017 09:20:06 GMT

Hi,

I encounter a problem in Popup (WebMap and WebApp) with URL whitout HTTP/HTTPS.

Link is not clickable
Link is wrong (prefixed with webmap/webapp URL)

Problem depend of popup display mode:

Mode "List of field attributes"

==>Link is not clickable

Mode "Custom attribute display"

==> Link is wrong (prefixed with webmap/webapp URL), so it does not work

From WebMap URL is prefixed with « http://capgeo.maps.arcgis.com/home».

From WebApp URL is prefixed with « http://capgeo.maps.arcgis.com/apps» .

My questions :

Do URLs have to be prefixed with HTTP¨/HTTPS?
Behavior difference between two mode (List/custom) is normal?

Thanks for your advices,

Flavie

The short answer is yes. HTTP(S) prefixes are required to generate automatic hyperlinks in the popup.

See this page https://blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2016/08/24/url-parameters-in-pop-ups/ and Supported HTML—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS

Thank you!

And from my side I also found reference of similar problem : BUG-000096662 : A CSV with attribute that contains URL values set as hyperlink in ArcGIS Online pop-ups fails to redirect to the right page if it does not contain "HTTP://".

So the only solution for me is :

Have URL with HTTP/HTTPS protocol;
Or use custom Popup and Prefix URL with HTTP/HTTPS

We have a linked field in a configured popup for a portal map which opens the website in that field. THe issue is, not all of the website entries have the 'http://" added to the beginning. How do I find the values without "http://" and then add it in the link so all the website values will work? I have tried using IIF function in the arcade expression window, but cannot find the correct way to use a 'LIKE' statement with a wildcard.

I am not terribly familiar with the Arcade syntax and have not been able to find examples to learn how to set this up - any ideas?
