It would be great if we can have features filtered by logged in user in ArcGIS Field Maps.

A field where username is populated by the Map/Layer author, and then filtered automatically by logged in user in ArcGIS Field Maps.

This would enable work to be 'assigned' to fieldworkers and prevent them from viewing all the work for all field staff.

This is NOT the same as editor tracking + editor settings as these only work if the logged in user creates the features (which is not the case as the map author account is creating them).

This is NOT the same as the layer filter widget being added to ArcGIS Field Maps as that is an optional client-side filter. In this case, we would want the default to be filtered, and not provide the option for them to view work not assigned to them.

Collector equivalent:

This is a feature that is also a very high priority for us. We have had our field geologists out this year with a new field app made with ArcGIS Field Maps and they collected a total of 1045 localities, distributed among 20 users in the field.

So, it is a must that there is the option of being able to filter your own and other people's field data.

Thanks for the support.
There is a filter currently in Beta for fieldworkers to apply their own.
They can be preconfigured. But users have to apply it, and it makes it
difficult when multiple layers are at play, hence this more specific author
side configuration.

How can we do the configuration
