Is there a way to add the Web Mapping Application widgets to an Instant App?

I would like to have "Layers" and "Legend" widgets in particular, but is there not a way to add these widgets to Instant Apps? I'm using the Insets Instant App and would like users to be able to show or hide layers. Is this possible? Thanks!

You can enable the legend/layer list during the inset app configuration process. You can use the search within the configuration to find those settings.

Same question, but I want to add an editing widget to an existing Basic Instant App.  Is that possible?  I can't find any options for adding widgets.  Thanks.

@sblazeycov Only exisiting widgets in the app can be disable/enabled. If a tempalte does not contain a specific widget it can't be added. Basic does not have edit capabilities. For editing features, Sidebar and Manager would be good templates to take a look at. One way to find Instant Apps that have the capabilities you are looking for is to use the search on the Instant App home page. You can enter search terms and it will return all apps with those features.

Thanks Beth.  This was a map that we built a while ago, and at the time the Basic template met all of their requirements.  Weeks later, they asked for some editing capabilities to be added, so I was hoping to add the editing widget rather than start over with a new map.
I ended up starting over with a new Sidebar Instant app.
It would be nice to have the option to add widgets at a later date for this purpose.
Thanks,
Stephanie

Further to this -- the Sidebar instant app allows editing but it doesn't have an attribute table.  Something as basic as that would be useful to be able to add to an instant app.

It does currently have an option to add a table via the layer list configuration. Currently the table isn't editable but in the next release of Online you will be able to enable table editing.
