If you have enabled workspaces (beta) of ArcGIS Hub, then you have a new experience for managing your site’s pages.
Hub pages are useful for sharing information with specific audiences and can integrate multiple applications, content galleries, and media. Pages can already be shared with the public or with specific groups of people for privileged information.
We made it easier to also collaborate on who can edit a page. Now, people can be given permission to edit a page without requiring that person be able to edit your site. Page items are managed just like other items in your organization.
We are also expanding the use of pages. Some sites had hundreds, or even thousands, of pages. Recent updates to Hub provide better performance and support for these sites with many pages.
Last, coming soon you will be able to add pages to other Hub content such as pages for initiatives, projects, events, and even as related content for datasets, discussion boards, and apps. These capabilities will allow you to provide useful information about your work that is easy to create, use, and manage.
When viewing pages linked to your site in the site layout editor, you should notice two tabs: “Pages” and “Migration.”
The “Pages” tab lists all pages that are in the groups of your site’s catalog. Going forward, the pages that appear in the catalog’s groups will be part of your site.
The “Migration” tab lists all pages that are linked to the site through the former method of adding pages to your site (prior to workspaces in beta).
Each page that is listed in the “Migration” tab must go through a migration process. Press “Migrate” to start the quick process.
First, you will confirm the page name and page slug.
Second, you will choose a group from the site’s catalog to connect the page.
Note: If you notice a specific page is listed in both tabs (as in the screenshots above), then the page still needs to be migrated. After you migrate the page, it will no longer appear in the Migration tab.
We recommend beginning the process of migrating now. At a future undetermined date any pages that are linked, but not in the site’s catalog, will not load whether they are reached by the page’s id or slug.
We've additionally updated the way page slugs are handled. Previously all pages linked to a site needed to have unique slugs. Now we will not enforce unique page slugs per individual site.
When linking to a page, the Hub application will now always append a tilde (~) and the page id to the slug to ensure the user is routed to the correct page. In the case that a user visits a link to a page that does not have the id appended (i.e. from their bookmarks, or an from out-of-date link not generated by the Hub application), the application will use the slug to find the page within the site's catalog. If your site catalog happens to include two pages with identical slugs, then the application will show the first one it found.
As you migrate your pages, we welcome feedback, questions, or ideas in Esri Community.
