I have an editing widget in an experience builder app.

I want the widget to open by default when users open the app.

I've tried playing with the widget settings, but they don't seem to work the way I want; the widget doesn't always open by default. Could this functionality be added?

Just to be clear, this isn't working (or not working consistently) for you?

Thanks for the tip. I tried that Widget Controller technique just now, but I'm getting an error when I try to save: "Saving error". But I admit I'm new to Experience Builder, so I don't really know what I'm doing.

I tried again, and the Widget Controller technique you mentioned worked this time. Maybe my previous session timed out and I didn't realize it, causing the saving issue.

Esri can close this idea.

@ShengdiZhang In hindsight, I wonder if the 'Already Offered' status would have been more fitting?
