Add Data in Web AppBuilder

CarlosPiccirillo — Mon, 29 Jun 2015 18:04:45 GMT

I'm a newbie with about 2 months experience using Web AppBuilder and was wondering if anyone has an "Add Data" widget similar to what is available in Web Maps.

I haven't found anything about it in my searches and it seems odd to me that this basic functionality is not an out of the box widget.

Thanks,

Carlos

If you haven't already checked Web AppBuilder Developer Edition &#8211; Customization Resource List You can check there for the custom apps that are available.

One of the links is Add Service Widget 1.1.3 which may be what you are looking for.

Carlos,

Are you talking about this on ArcGIS online?

Thanks for the reply, that was one of the first places I looked in.

Rickey,

ArcGIS online has the capability but Web AppBuilder does not. We are creating custom Web apps using Web AppBuilder and need to give the users the ability to add their own data. There is no out of the box widget for this in Web AppBuilder and haven’t found anything about it in my searches.

Thanks, that was the first place I looked. Just can’t believe it is not a built in, out of the box functionality in Web AppBuilder.

Carlos, I noticed you started another thread with the same question. You should be able to share it to Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS instead of starting the new thread. I would recommend keeping it all in one place. if you think this thread is better suited for that space you can also move it. Moving Content

Sorry for the double post, someone else replied and told me I should be posting to the Web AppBuilder form, not where I posted it initially.

The Add Data button is only available in AGOL, not Web AppBuilder online or developer edition.

Carlos,

For adding layers at config time there is the Local Layer Widget and for runtime there is the Add Service Widget 1.1.3 (as Rebecca mentioned) these are the only options you have available right now.

Thanks Robert,

Users need to be able to add data at runtime so I will look at Rebecca's Add Service Widget and see if I can figure it out.

Just to clarify, it's not my widget I just provided the link. Damien Robinson created the Add Service widget.
