Simple since you are taking away Web AppBuilder, make Instant Apps the new Web AppBuilder.  Instant Apps is currently too simple to be of use.  Experience Builder is way over top more complex than I need.  I need an App that I can add stock widgets to.  I want to be able to change the basemaps, draw, measure, print, identify, change the layers.  I can make apps with this in Web AppBuilder in 15 minutes or less. I can't add to the Instant Apps templates to meet my needs.  Experience Builder is going to take an extreme amount of time to create something would be so simple to do in Web AppBuilder.  Improve Instant Apps, so that we can make quick maps that are not embarrassing.

Hi @MichaelPielow @L77 

Wanted to follow up on this, the sketch tools are available in Sidebar and Basic now. Also available now, is the ability to edit in the table in Sidebar

Thanks!

@SarahMcDonald_Esri I am testing editing in the table.

In map viewer I set the road name to be read only.

In the sidebar app table, it is allowing me to edit the road name.

Should I be configuring which fields are editable and which are view only in another location? Or is this possibly a bug?

 

As a side note, the edit widget is not allowing me to edit the road name in the pop-up window, so that tool is working correctly:

Hi @L77 

Thanks for reaching out about this. The smart form that is configured in map viewer will only apply "Read only" to fields where the smart form is used - in the edit tool. 

Editing in the table will not apply that read only setting from the smart form. Instead, if you go to the feature layer data tab in the item details page you can set read only on the fields there. The read only setting will be applied anywhere that layer can be edited.
