Hello

It would be great if I could see the populated metadata of my Enterprise Portal hosted feature layers in ArcGIS Pro Catalog or when right-clicking the layer in a map. I've populated the layer's summary, description, tags, , layer photo, constraints, source, etc. in the hosted feature layer on Enterprise Portal. 

It'd be helpful to access these details from Pro to save reopening Enterprise to view.

Hi @SWATConsultingInc

If I understand correctly, this is already available. When you add a web layer to a map, you can right‑click the layer in the Contents pane and select View Metadata. Note that item‑level metadata may differ from sublayer or layer‑level metadata. Please see the video below for an example.
