What's New in ArcGIS Experience Builder (June 2025)

[Jianxia]

Support Arcade expressions for advanced formatting, batch attribute editing, and integration with Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC). Other highlights include ability to export data to more formats, the new Display Order widget for imagery, and WAB parity features like restoring app state, using barrier layers in Directions, freehand drawing tools in Draw, and others. For more information, see the blog post.

It would appear that you still cannot use an Arcade expression as a display field for the results generated by the Near Me widget. Only "true" attribute fields as displayed in the dropdown list of fields.

these enhancements looks great @Jianxia , great to see batch editing and shapefile/fgdb exports.

Can you advise which Enterprise release will reflect these changes? im assuming 11.6, or is there an 11.5 patch available?

[Jianxia]

@SteveCole, Thanks for your feedback. We understand that many of you would like to use Arcade expressions as display fields. We are researching on it.

[Jianxia]

@David_Brooks, Patches for ArcGIS Enterprise only apply for bug fixes but new features and enhancements. These newly introduced features will be available in ArcGIS Enterprise 12.0 which is slated for the end of the year.

@Jianxia sorry I did mean 12.0 (not 11.6, which won't exist) 

Okay, good to know, thanks for the update.

@JianxiaThank you for all the details about the new features in EXB — great work, as always! 🙂 Do you happen to know when the new Developer Edition will be available?

[Jianxia]

@MichalBrodowicz1 Dev Edition 1.18 is slated for July 23 currently.

@Jianxia are arcade calculations not working in the batch edit a known issue, i've noticed that the fields calculate on the form but are not being saved to the record when you hit update

Hello! Is there plans to add the Image Explorer functions like the ones were just added in Map Viewer? It appears the display order widget does some of the things that the Map Viewer Image Explorer does.

I ask because my users still need to be able to identify and locate individual tiles in a mosaic on the web side. Using Pop-ups to do this isn't as helpful as you can't see the wire frame of the mosaic and if your mosaic has overviews it shows you the overview in the pop-up, not the base image.
