exporting single points

Howdy, I need to export just a few points from a layer. Is there a way to do that without exporting them all?

Yes and no..Within the default Map Viewer interface, there isn't a way. The most direct way I can think of is if you have access to the REST endpoint of the map service. You can query against the service with a WHERE clause (OBJECTID=77 or TYPE='Active' etc) and have the REST query return the results in JSON format. Then you can copy/paste the JSON into a text file and then import it back into desktop GIS using the geoprocessing tool for JSON to Feature.

Export the layer to a .shp or geodatabase, open in ArcGIS Pro, and export from there.

Or, open ArcGIS Pro and add the layer to your map through the ArcGIS Online connection in Catelog. Select and export from there

@AlexHitzeroth Do you have access to the Analysis tools?
If yes, you could use the Extract Data tool to export a filtered set of points.

Step 1. Add a filter to the points layer to limit the points to the select few you want.
Step 2. Open Analysis > Tools > Manage Data > Extract Data
Step 3. Select your point layer as your input layer, specify the output type and name, and run the tool.
