Experience Builder Search Widget and Zoom not working

[ChristopherEarley]

My organisation has recently adopted Experience Builder. While we find it quite useful, we're encountering an issue with the 'Zoom to' functionality in the Search Widget.

Here's the problem: When I configure the search widget, I use the 'Data filtering changes' trigger to search for features based on a unique ID. It works perfectly when only one layer is involved. However, upon adding an additional layer, the zoom seems to pan to an unrelated location.

I believe the data isn't the issue here. I say this because when I tried replicating the process with Web App Builder, both the search widget and zoom functioned as expected.

I'd appreciate any insights or solutions. Thanks!

Hi @ShengdiZhang, I do not think this is a bug.  I posted the steps that we followed to configure the search widget because, in our case, I did not initially know the steps for configuration. In Experience Builder, it seems a little more difficult to configure than in WebApp Builder.  I'm not certain, but I think the search widget in Web App Builder used ArcGIS World Geocoding as a default search source, but I don't see that in Experience Builder.

Hi @CynthiaSkelhorn , thanks for your feedback. 

used ArcGIS World Geocoding as a default search source, but I don't see that in Experience Builder. 

This enhancement is included in Enterprise 11.5. In 11.5, you can use map search sources directly, and if you choose to connect to a map widget, some message actions will be automatically added to your search widget.
