How to remove template for creating new features from field maps, but only for that map?

Savannah2019 — Wed, 27 Sep 2023 16:42:05 GMT

I have a layer that will be put in field maps for end users to edit. This feature layer is in my map 3 different times with different filters. Two are for editing the existing data points and one is for creating a new record. These will have different forms.

I only want the end users to be able to add a new feature for the one layer in the map with the form designed for new entries. But the other two layers, since they are all a part of the same feature layer and thus have the same settings, still show up in the template options when creating a new point.

Is there a way to remove a the unnecessary templates seen in the edit option in field maps when creating a new feature without removing the ability to edit those other filtered layers and without locking down the entire layer from creating a new record?

I am sorry to see that noone replied to this for this long.

This is rather a big problem.

One possible solution would be to use hosted feature layer views and set different editing permissions on the views.

For example, View 1 could have editing enabled and allow users to add features.

Subsequent Views (2 and 3) could have editing enabled but not allow users to add features.
