How do I figure out what applications are using my web map?

AnastasiaZamaria — Mon, 11 Aug 2025 17:19:26 GMT

I'm trying to clear out any web maps, layers, etc. from my AGOL account that I don't use. The issue is, I'm not sure if any of my (or other people in my organization's) applications depend on this data. Is there a way to make sure deleting data won't break anything?

Hey @AnastasiaZamaria

This is what I have used in the past to track down dependencies, specifically jcarlson's comment with their notebook:

Have played around with this one many years ago and it did work from what I remember. Probably needs refactored for deprecated modules, and might not work on AGOL. Determining the interdependencies of items in Portal for ArcGIS | Esri Australia Technical Blog

Thank you! This seems like it would work, but my organization's GIS portal is having issues. Will come back and update with results once I can test it.

So turns out my organization doesn't have access to notebooks. BUT my coworker dug up an application that someone at our org created that lets us do the same thing thankfully. Thank you (and David!) for responding!
