It would be nice to have the Public Notification Widget appear as a widget in Experience Builder like it used to Web App Builder.
This would be a great addition to Experience Builder and it is the one thing preventing us from switching over from Web AppBuilder at this time. The Planning staff do all their property screening and notification mailouts from one application now and it would be a pain to have to use two applications (Experience Builder and Public Notification Instant App) to do this process.
The Query widget can be configured to do a buffer search/selection and export a csv of selected parcel records.

Hope that helps

is that export to avery label format?
Is the Public Notification Widget going to be added to Experience Builder? If not, is there an alternative? I just discovered that WAB will be retired soon and the unavailable PN widget is an issue for migration to Experience Builder. Thanks.

ESRI recommends using the Public Notification Instant App. It is also possible to hack a public notification function out of the Near Me or Query widgets in Experience Builder.
Thanks for the great info, Jeff.
No planned migration of that widget to Experience Builder makes no sense to me, but what do I know? Thanks again.
I agree, having it in Experience Builder vs the Instant Apps would be highly beneficial. The instant apps are good for some things, but they are frustrating to work with in the all-too-common situation where it meets almost all, but not quite all, of our needs for a particular application. It's even more frustrating when one particular functionality is available only in an Instant App and not Experience Builder. So instead of having the option to drop in the functionality in one app, we're forced to build two apps.
