add item to a layer

SaraEL_MALKI — Fri, 10 Mar 2017 12:02:54 GMT

Hello everyone,

I am new to arcGIS Online (WAB developer edition) and I am searching for the ability of adding a widget that allows me to ADD items to layers, as an example: I have a layer of shcools and I want to add each time new schools with their PROPRITIES(name, number of students, class, etc) to my layer within the applisation and then export the new layer after modification, Is it possible ?

best regards,

Sara,

The OOTB way to do this if create a FeatureService on your ArcGIS Server or your AGOL. You then use the edit widget or smart editor.

Thank you Robert, I'll search more about the FeatureService on AGOL,

Is exporting edited layer is possible ?

Sara,

I would think about handling at the AGOL level. But there are some options like using a export data GP service in the GP widget.

Hi Sara,

> Is exporting edited layer is possible?

This may depend on the security settings enabled on the feature service you're editing.

FYI, the Analysis widget has an Extract data tool. Learn more,
