How to add more layers into app without interrutping the use of application

NavKa — Sat, 18 Feb 2017 03:22:47 GMT

Hello

we just published our 1st web map using AGO WAB interface. Now we are looking to add more layers to the map but don't want to interrupt the use of the app. How can we do that?

Thanks

Hi Nav,

It's not possible to edit/modify a Web AppBuilder app in ArcGIS Online without interrupting its use. I suggest you make a copy of it, then apply changes to the copy.

Hope this helps,

Hi Nav,

In the "builder" environment of Web AppBuilder, there is a "Save As" option in the lower left corner. Use this to save a copy of your web app.

Hope this helps,

Hi Nav,

Seem you want to add more layer to the web map first without interrupting the web app, therefore, I had recommend you do a "save as" for the web map (see image) as well as the web app ( as suggested by Derek) then do a switch after you have tested the outcome.
