Web appBuilder for ArcGIS Server

AdminRFVL — Thu, 14 Aug 2014 20:03:56 GMT

Hi,

I'm experimenting with the Web appBuilder Beta2 and I was wondering if I could use data coming from our ArcGIS Server (MapServer) instead of ArcGIS Online. It seems like the appBuilder is only built to support ArcGIS Online Web maps but maybe i'm wrong.

Our goal is to skip arcgis online and load dynamic layers coming from our server.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Patrick Robinson

Have a look at Roberts post here:

Do you have to use AGOL to use WAB?‌

Thanks Anthony,

We replaced the "itemID" for "OperationalLayers" and we were able to load data from our AGS.

Do you think there's a possibility to use a custom TOC instead of the WAB layers list ? We want to organize our layers using groups and subgroups.

We did it in a previous version using the cbtree library and a JSON config file. but maybe there's a better way.

Patrick,

Have you found out the answer to your question yet about the cbtree? I am currently looking into that and have only found examples using 3.3 API and another sample in php using 3.7.

Hi Mat,

I didn't. As of now, we decided to abandon the idea of using the WAB and went back to our custom Javascript app.

Hopefully the official release of the WAB will offer more flexibility.
