Is it possible to add the labelling key as layout text, rather than having it draw on the map?

I'd like to include it next to the legend, for example.

Thanks!

There isn't a way to label the key number labels on the layout instead of the map. However if the key numbering is using Always place labels with key numbers and you want the list on the layout instead, you could configure the labels differently and see if this works for your case. 

Assign the point features a number in a field in the attribute table (let's call it "Map_Number").

Label the points with the Map_Number field.

On the layout, insert a Table Frame into the layout and configure it to display the Map_Number field and the feature names. Move the table frame next to the legend or wherever you'd like on the layout.

Good to know, but still more work than I had hoped.

Pretty sure the answer to this is no, but Is there a way to combine the methods? That is, still use key numbering and also use the table, but use arcade to grab the key numbers from the features on the map and apply them to the table?
