Editing Feature Layer Points Map Viewer Fields List Option Not Appearing

How can I add points the correspond to my new symbolized list?

I have been following this tutorial - https://youtu.be/zrlN7NrMawY?si=J21LuYz1rwv3-91F&t=1075

When I tried to digitize my map, to add points to my new feature layer,
I am able to add the points, but my 'List' field does not appear.

Hi @gertrudious,

So you updated the symbology. Now you need to update the templates. Managing templates within Map Viewer is on our future road map. In the mean time, you can do it using Map Viewer Classic or Field Maps Designer.

In Field Maps Designer, follow these steps:

Open the map in Field Maps Designer.
Navigate to the layer
Tap to open the 'Templates' tab
To create a new template, duplicate an existing template and make changes to the name and / or default values.
To edit an existing template, tap on the template you want to modify and make the desired changes.
To delete a template, select the trashcan icon.

Hope that helps!

I don't think I explained my troubles well.
In this esri tutorial, at about min 2:31 (https://youtu.be/l2nhhOw7HW0?si=AR6yubg7ZTlY1nas&t=151)
the video shows how to add a point, from the field options that were created in the created feature layer.

when I attempt this step, to add a point to the map like in minute 2:31, I am not given the same option as in the video. Instead, I am given no option, like in my second photo from above.

I did not use a template so I am not sure what you are referring to. As well, I have seen several videos where what I am attempted is seemingly done with ease. Thus, I am guessing that your comment of "Managing templates within Map Viewer is on our future road map" may not actually fit my issue.

I hope I am explaining my trouble with a bit more clarity.
kind thanks.

Hi there,

I'm sorry you're still having trouble. In the screenshot that you shared, it says Click on the map to add a point. Are you able to click on the map to create a point? The fields should appear in the Editor pane after you place a point on the map.

If you are trying to access the list of templates, you can click the Back arrow.
