Web App Builder Not Showing Itself

Anonymous User — Thu, 30 Nov 2017 22:03:04 GMT

I am using ArcGIS Enterprise. I think it comes with WAB.

I am not seeing the "Web App Builder" with the "share" option in the map view, only the template option.

Also, in the "Gallery" "ESRI Favorites/Apps" I see the same thing - templates only, no Web App Builder option.

Is this a permission issue?

Thank you for any light you may be able to shine on this.

Sincerely,

Randy McGregor

Hi Randy,

> I am using ArcGIS Enterprise. I think it comes with WAB.

Yes, Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS is included and is embedded within the Portal for ArcGIS component of ArcGIS Enterprise since the 10.3 release.

> I am not seeing the "Web App Builder" with the "share" option in the map view, only the template option. Also, in the "Gallery" "ESRI Favorites/Apps" I see the same thing - templates only, no Web App Builder option.

I suspect that the Portal administrator "hid" Web AppBuilder from the Portal user interface. This is an option that can be configured in Portal home app config.js file, which is in the Portal installation directory.

FYI, Set advanced portal options—Portal for ArcGIS (10.5.x) | ArcGIS Enterprise

(see the webAppBuilderEnabled parameter)

Hope this helps,

Thank you Mr. Law (I have enjoyed your instructional videos, BTW).

I will check with the administrator. That sounds like a very plausible explanation.
