The Experience Builder Draw widget does not provide much value as it is. It misses the ability export, import and sharing sketches. The widget needs the ability to export a KML/JSON/SHP containing the Draw sketches and import that file on another Experience Builder App.
It would be very usefull as well if it was possible to share the Draw sketches with the app as a link, for example via an URL parameter thar reffers an ID of a file in a Cloud Storage solution that keeps the file for a limited period of time. This is very user-friendly.
Example of export, import and sharing of sketches by file and URL: https://kommunekart.com/ (Meny -> Tegn i kart and Del kart).
The expected audience does not have GIS Knowledge and does not have Named User licenses.
This idea is as well submited to ESRI as an enhancement request: ENH-000168545: Implement export, import and sharing of sketches on the Experience Builder Draw widget
Surprised to see this isn't a feature, so throwing in my kudos.
Please we absolutely need this. Top priority feature, I get requests for this functionality all the time.
This is a much-needed and long-overdue feature. Please, ESRI—make updating the Draw widget a priority! The ability for field users to sketch freely and easily share those drawings with desktop teams in the office would be a game-changer for real-time collaboration
Export, save, and load were all available for the draw and bookmarks widgets in WAB - this functionality is key to our processes and prevents full utilisation of the Experience Builder.
For those of you with access to Experience Builder on Enterprise or Developer Edition, I would follow this page for updates to the custom draw widget which includes saving, importing, and exporting drawings.
There is an update to the Custom Draw widget which supports import/export and save drawings to local storage. The blog is available at:
Persistent sketches per user login - Yes !
Exporting Map Notes was/is available in Map Viewer Classic (by converting a note to a layer), however exporting a Sketch is not possible in MapViewer.
Some of our users have the need to create and export notes/sketches as shapefiles so they can share it with others outside our organisation. It would be great if this was made possible without having to create a new layer every time (or new polygon into a layer created and used as a template, then and use the select area of interest to export).
Keen on having the ability to export a sketch too!
