How do you remove thousand comma separators on ArcGIS web map labels and tables?

How do you remove thousand comma separators in labels on ArcGIS Online web maps? I know you can remove them in the pop-ups, but how do you remove them in the labels and tables? How would you be able to do this without having to write an arcade expression?

When you configure a field in the popup to change the "Use 1000 Separator" option, that change is reflected in the table immediately. For the labels, if you've already created them and then changed the separator option, you have to click on "Manage labels" and then click OK to resync them.

Hi Jan Vincent Punzalan ,

Could you mark the post by kenbuja as the correct answer?

Why would one have to do that for the labels to resync? Shouldn't that automatically happen after the "Use 1000 Separator" has been unchecked, saved, and the map refreshed? So, one has to actually take one more step and go to "Manage Labels" for the labels to actually refresh and label correctly. Seems totally illogical and could be taken care of in ESRI's code fairly easily. Seems like a bug to me....

This workflow did not work for my data

Agreed. This did not work for me either.

^Work flow also did not work.

In Excel, I format the data to text -- cells have no comma written in, so cell is as is with no comma. There is no comma separator check box in Esri Online for me to uncheck, yet commas appear in data when viewed in pop up. There are no commas present in attribute table.

Have been dealing with this issue for a while and is having major impacts on individuals attempting to use the map

Late to the thread, but in case anyone is still wondering...

In Map Viewer (not Map Viewer Classic) there is a 'Fields' icon in the toolbar on the right side of the screen. Open this menu and select the field with the offending separator. A dialogue box will appear with a toggle switch to remove it. Not sure how to do this in Map Viewer Classic, my apologies.

Easy, just convert the label to text. Go to the label field and hit the </> button and in the expression add

return text($feature.<YourField>) , job done!
