Display Premium Content

[LisaBenvenuti1]

Allow StoryMap producers who have premium subscription accounts include premium content, like the historic topo maps, so that they are viewable by people who are not signed in. Many university professors use the historic topo maps to demonstrate change, but then when StoryMaps are submitted to a conference, these maps will not display.

@LisaBenvenuti1 can you add some more details and examples to help clarify this idea? You mention "premium subscription accounts", is that in reference to StoryMaps.com offerings, or is this about premium content, in say the Living Atlas, used in web maps used in ArcGIS StoryMaps?

[LisaBenvenuti1]

The premium content I am referring to for our purposes are the historic topo maps. I work with a lot of faculty at the University of Redlands who map historic topics for both faculty research and class lessons. StoryMaps are now to go to presentation format for student presentations. Many are done well enough to be presented at our annual Spatial Symposium. Some students want to share their StoryMaps with their parents. If the student or faculty is not present and logged in, the historic topo maps do not show up which defeats the purpose of the StoryMap. It would be nice to have them available for display purposes only within a StoryMap.

@LisaBenvenuti1 - Thank you for the additional info about the use case.

Premium content from the Living Atlas should be available in stories published from subscription accounts that belong to an ArcGIS organization. When publishing a story that contains that premium content, the author should be prompted to authorize the content for public use (since views of a story with premium content will consume credits from the organization).

Could you share a link to one of the historic maps that are not showing up in the published story so we can look into this? If you have a link to the web map and/or a story those would be helpful.

When publishing a StoryMap with the Historic Top map service, one of our faculty is getting these messages below. I just tried her StoryMap (https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/e097c88e98554634ab58c15d58fb8870) and they seem to be working, but not always.
