Experience Builder has so much potential, but we can't implement it until a batch editor capability is added. It is so convenient to be able to select multiple features and edit their attributes simultaneously rather than selecting one-by-one.

We have several Web App Builder apps that we won't be able to retire until this is available in Experience builder.

Bumping this back up… It seems a little wild that it’s taking this long to add what seems to be such a simple enhancement. I wish esri would step up and explain why this isn’t happening… if they have, I’ve not seen it.  I like experience builder, but my people hate multiple edits and are dropping back to the older applications to complete their work.

Has this issue been forgotten? Is anyone actively working on it? It's been almost two years since it was first raised, and it's really frustrating not to have this feature. Esri, please consider implementing it.

Development work is currently in progress on this. Batch editing in Experience Builder is currently planned for early 2025.

I really appreciate the feedback Alix.

We are really struggling without this and hope this comes quick.

We have enhancement log for this - ENH-000156980 it would be nice to see progress updates posted there.

As of now it shows as Under Consideration.

Its almost 2025 and I'm still deploying WABs because ESRI hasn't provided parity for EB.

I'm fully on board with growth and change but we have workflow processes that rely on this functionality.

So the latest is "Early 2025",  how solid is that?  We have had many dates come and go for this feature.  It is a must for us and our clients.  This is making us look bad to them.  We prepped them in 2023 to convert all of their apps over and they budgeted for it.  It will now be going into their 3rd budget year and we have to keep telling them it is planned.

and now even more of an issue! I have several WebApp Builds that use batch editor, so I can't move them to Experience Builder yet, BUT NOW my WebApp Builder Maps are beginning to act glitchy based on the users display.

Users are losing the entire right pane if they view it on a smaller laptop screen.

on a larger desktop monitor the right pane shows up fine:

I have moved these widgets around, messed around with the layout and widget sizes, etc. I've tried everything. Doesn't matter which browser they are using either. The ONLY solution is for the user to go into their PC monitor settings and change their screen display resolution/size! Which is NOT a viable solution.

And this issue has now started happening on multiple WebApp Builder Maps. 

And not like I can even ask ESRI to fix this bug because they are retiring WebApp Builder.

But like so many others in this thread I cannot move off of WebApp Builder until Experience Builder has equal functionality.

This is beyond frustrating how long this is taking. I guess this is what happens when a company has a stranglehold monopoly in an industry - the customer is at their mercy and suffers.

Bumping. Its nearing the end of the first quarter of 2025 and my users need the Batch Editing functionality available in the Experience App. Is there any update on when we can expect this feature to be added to the Experience editing function??
