is an enterprise upgrade necessary to get the new dashboard functionality

[ChrisCandy]

The new functions in the dashboard are impressive.  Do you need to upgrade desktop, app  server, portal and geodatabases to 10.6 to access all new functions and capabilities?

Hi Chris,

The new Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS app uses a new dashboard item type that is only available in ArcGIS Online - Dec 2017 update and the forthcoming Portal for ArcGIS 10.6 release. You can use Ops Dashboard with ArcGIS Online now, or you will need to upgrade to ArcGIS Enterprise 10.6 (to be released in Q1 next year).

Hope this helps,

Hi Derek,

Since ArcGIS Enterprise 10.6 has already been released, is there any target date of release for the new Operations Dashboard installer?

Thanks a lot,

Karen
