Smart editor not displaying domain description for one template

SFM_TravisBott — Fri, 06 Nov 2020 19:31:00 GMT

Having issue with the smart editor in a configurable web app. It's configured to allow editing for three templates. For two of them it presents the domain description (which is what I like), for the third it displays the domain code. How do you change the preference?

And there certainly is an analogous description for the domain.

Below is the template for the layer as it was published from Pro.

Any help on how to coax the graphic in the smart editor to display the domain description of the template, rather than the code, would be helpful.

Hi Travis,

Please would you be able to share the layer or web map with the issue so we can investigate this more closely?

Thank you!

Hi Travis,

If you open up the Feature Service in a new online Map Viewer, go to Configure Editing, and then click Templates, you can alter the Display Name of each template. It looks as if these edits are made globally.

Thanks for your help,

Since the Smart Editor widget is in Web AppBuilder, which relies on older 3.x JavaScript technology, I would not recommend making changes using the new Map Viewer in this case. It would be preferable for changes to be made in Map Viewer Classic, where templates can also be managed.
