Use in ArcGIS Collector checkbox missing

ZacharyUhlmann1 · ‎11-01-2022

I just saved a web map in Map Viewer. Currently a very simple foundation that will be fleshed out with more layers. It's intended for a Collector app. BUT there is no checkbox for "User in ArcGIS Collector"?

Any idea what is happening? The only difference in protocol from previous Collector app building is that I exported the editable features as a Feature Layer from Pro 3.0.2, NOT as a Webmap with the feature layers contained. Then I created the webmap on AGOL.

Not stat padding, but I found the "solution" - after enabling editing of feature layer, one must open and resave webmap:

Eeeh, contradictory bullet points in the Cause Section: "This is expected behavior. Refer to BUG..." So it's a Bug, but it's expected. Got it. Makes me wonder why "Use in ArcGIS Field Maps" is still available? Apparently FieldMaps does NOT require an editable layer.
