Hey Carl Holt‌,

I would be interested in hearing how you would use the two apps in conjunction. Could you provide some more details on how you'd like to see this integration work?

Being able to open Explorer for ArcGIS from the Workforce App, similar to Collector for ArcGIS. Collector is sometimes too robust for what the users need to accomplish; viewing, driving directions, and compass. Then be able to use the Custom URL from Explorer for ArcGIS to open Survey123.

Carl Holt‌ that makes sense. One way to accomplish this, which looks like it could be possible in the next release of Workforce (17.0.1), will be to call out to Explorer via a Custom URL in the assignment's description (Explorer-Integration). I'm sure Craig Gillgrass‌, who works on Workforce, will want to get more details on how would like to use the apps in tandem.

Carl, this is something we're working on for our next release of Workforce.

Do you have any examples of what types of maps\content you'd like to use in Explorer when launched from Workforce?
