Custom URLs in a Custom Attribute Dispay Pop-Up

[bshepard]

We need to create hyperlinks in pop-ups that deep link to internal applications.  Why does ArcGIS Online allow me to configure a hyperlink with a custom URL, but then changes the protocol to http:// when I save?

I need to be able to create a clickable link in a pop-up with cwsphoto://{Field1}/{Field2}?{Field3}&{Field4}.  Not all URLs use http protocol.

Please refer to the following link on supported HTML. This is done to prevent any HTML injection/security vulnerabilities. 

https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/reference/supported-html.htm 

• HTML tags not listed in the table are not supported and will be filtered out. 
• Allowed protocols for href and src are https, http, tel, and mailto.

Hope that helps!

This has been a recurring issue with various ESRI apps and results in huge inefficiencies for our staff.  We have two custom iOS applications that are sideloaded onto devices using a MDM.  Our apps and URI schemes have been validated by Apple.  How do we go about getting those schemes whitelisted by ESRI?

Thanks,

Hi there,

Facing the same issue. Needed to add a deepLink in a popup in order to open a custom desktop application in my case.

Found this interesting article about how to bypass the Maps SDK for javascript HTML sanitizer:

https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/js-api-arcgis/mapping/using-html-with-popups-in-the-arcgis...

Downside is that you need to code that instead of the no code configuration offered by ArcGIS Online's mapViewer but still a workaround is available.

Thought it would an interesting reference for anyone stumbling on this issue.
