Hi, I am developing a map where I want people to be able to click on a feature and then edit the description and/or upload an image. I have set it up so that the layer allows attachments and the edit widget works for editing the description, but I cannot get the edit widget to allow uploading attachments.

The map I'm working in: https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/574904c1480a47289ac67129188887c3/

Only using one layer: https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=c2436b3e22a744d190a3dc9e74f5cfce#overview

Hi @mtebbe, I think your best bet would be to use the Survey widget, which allows end users to upload images and other attachments. You'd add an Image or File upload question, and make sure the survey is connected to your Santa Ana Sites feature layer.

Hi @mtebbe, I tried one layer of my own, it can allow upload attachments as follows:

I cannot access your ExB app, but using your shared layer, I can get it to work as expected in ExB - select a feature, choose from the adjacent list for a specific one, and then you can upload attachments:

Hi @mtebbe ,

Right now there is a known limitation in the Edit widget where editing a layer in Attribute only mode does not support attachments. We apologize for this inconvenience.

Hello @AlixVezina 

Is there a plan to include an upload attachments capability within the edit widget in the future AGOL plan?

@AlixVezina thanks for the clarification. Is there a ticket number we can follow to see if/when it gets added? Is this at all in the road map for enhancements?
