I have data that I want to symbolize as Unclassed Colors, but I want to include additional values/information in the legend beyond just the min/max. I am looking to do something similar to what I am seeing in this living atlas layer: https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=0e468b75bca545ee8dc4b039cbb5aff6

In ArcGIS Pro, I can set the upper and lower values to the same labels as seen here, but where I am stuck is trying to figure out how to set additional values- like how this living atlas layer has the national average:

I dug into the service a bit here: https://services.arcgis.com/P3ePLMYs2RVChkJx/arcgis/rest/services/ACS_Poverty_by_Age_Boundaries/Feat...

and found this regarding the "stops" which specifies the national average:

Looking into a "renderer" led me to this documentation: https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/services-reference/enterprise/generate-renderer.htm

I am wondering if this is the answer to my question, but not able to confirm as I do not have a ArcGIS Developers license- OR possibly this is much simpler than I a making it out to be and I am overlooking something. 

Is there a way to configure additional values like this within ArcGIS Pro?

Did you ever figure out how to do this. I'd love to be able to do this in Pro. It would also be nice if the labels for the min and max actually lined up with the proper location on the legend. See below for how they draw in Pro.

I would also like a step-by-step manual on how to post to Generate Renderer using the Visual Variables object, or another method to apply additional breaks and labels to the Unclassed Colors symbology.

A possible solution, as discovered by a colleague, is to do manually create a class break post-publish via ArcGIS Online Assistant. This isn't ideal, but it works. Creation of custom breaks should be provided in Pro.

1) Navigate to layer in AGO Assistant. Choose to view Item JSON and navigate to Data section. 

2)  Locate layer in layers section of JSON. Navigate to visualVariables section. 

3) Create a new stop or modify existing to include a label.
