Hello - 

I am seeking documentation on the required structrure of a CSV when using the Add Data Widget - Upload Files function.

I am using ArcGIS Enterprise 11.2. 

The ESRI Add Data widget documentation does not outline what the CSV structure should look like: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/experience-builder/11.2/configure-widgets/add-data-widget.htm

My testing so far indicates, that having the following field names in a CSV will upload and display on the map successfully:

lon, lat

longitude, latitude

^ in both instances this works with underlying decimal degree values under the field names.

Is anyone aware of documentation on the specifics of compatible strucutures. 

Can easting, northings be added? Can coordinates be added that don't meet the map coordinate system (mostly web mercator)?

Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks

Need to be able to use the same projection as the web map rather than wgs84, otherwise this function is of no use

@PatOBrien @KearaMcKay1, Experience Builder uses this REST API method in the Add Data widget. Will work with the team responsible for the method for specifics.

I got addresses to be placed on the map by constructing the CSV like this:

address
"123 Main St, Anytown, ST"
"555 Washington Ave, Othertown, CA"

I second this.  Our users are predominately working with Northings and Eastings.  They would rarely be adding a csv in Latitude / Longitude. But definitely have the need for loading data in our coordinate system (2193) in a csv.
