Hyperlinks in ArcGIS Online

GeorgeKatsambas — Wed, 22 Mar 2017 17:48:14 GMT

I have a feature class with numerous polygons on an arcgis online map, which is also used in a Web Application Builder app v2.3 as a service. Each polygon has its on weblink(hyperlink) field that I used in arcgis online configure popups which allowed the user to click on the map and from the popup window click the hyperlink. Has the new March update to arcgis online changed the way hyperlinks are created. Link 1 image shows how the popup was and link 2 image is showing a new popup configuration. If I have a map service of over 200 polygons and each polygon has its own field with a hyperlink how do I add in to an online map and web application builder?

I have a related question regarding email addresses. I have a column of email addresses that I would like to make active in the popup. Is that possible?

George,

The hyperlink button is in the one that looks like a chain link in the toolbar click on that and add the field name surrounded by curly backets for the url field. If you use the "view html source" it would look like this:

In arcgis online I need to configure the popups on my map that my WAB Developer app is pointing to, however, services that I published before the march update to arcGIS online the popup window is respecting the hyperlink. Services that are published now the link is added using the custom attribute display window that is under the configure pop up but if my map services have numerous URL's within 1 published Feature Class I am limited to adding them. Basically in arcGIS online under configure popup adding an URL is different?

George,

Are you sure that you where choosing "Custom Attribute Display" before the March release. I seem to remember it always looking that way when choosing "Custom Attribute Display".

Hi George,

Are you URLs still formatted in the same way? I remember there being inconsistancies in ArcGIS Online in how URLs are recognised - www.google.com versus http://google.com
