The problem that I'm having is that when using the New Map Viewer in ArcGIS Online to edit data in a web map, folks are able to view and edit all fields of the layer, even fields that have been set to not visible and/or not editable.
Background: I published layers and created views. After I created the views in AGOL, from the Data tab, I configured the pop-up to make some fields not editable but visible, and some fields not editable or visible, and several fields both editable and visible. Then I added those layers to a web map (classic viewer) and saved it.
Behavior in classic map viewer: when a user clicks on a feature and edits it, or adds a new feature, they do not see any fields that are set to not visible, and if the field is set to visible but not editable, they can see it, but they cannot add data to it (it's grayed out).
Behavior in new map viewer: when user clicks on Edit on the right panel and then chooses either edit a feature or add a feature, they have access to view and edit every field of the layer, regardless of the visibility and editability of the pop-up configuration. Now I will note that when a user simply clicks on a feature to view the information, the pop-up configuration is honored as far as which fields are visible. I do not see anywhere in the new map viewer where it is honoring the "Edit" property of the pop-up configuration that is set at the layer level.
If there is a way to restrict the user from editing certain fields within a layer in the new map viewer, please let me know. However, this could potentially take a long time as we have so many layers and maps that would need to be updated. I'm concerned that our users all have access to the new map viewer and can now edit every field.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I am also not seeing this functionality in the new Map Viewer.
I also am not seeing Forms in the new Map Viewer so I cannot change what fields are visible and editable while editing. I'm guessing this is because my web map is on ArcGIS Enterprise and we are running 10.9.1? So I'm going back to the old Map Viewer for now.
Also, the edit behavior on the old Map Viewer is just simpler and better. Why does editing have to be a separate pop-up in the new Map Viewer? Just make it like the one in old Map Viewer. Ya'll are overthinking this.
I would like to use arcade with the edit form to for example validate email addresses, however this does not seem to work!
