It would be great to be able to use dynamic text within StoryMaps. This would allow storymaps to be more automated and easier to maintain as data changes. This could be used to embed data into the text or perform calculations and display them. Dynamic text could make story maps even more powerful as a medium.

I think Arcade or other similar tools could be used, it maybe possible to create variables ahead of time similar to the map making process and then insert them.

There are already other products that could be used for inspiration such as Quarto, markdown, etc

Totally agree with this, it'd be super useful. Whether it's through Arcade, as your suggestion, or exactly like Experience Builder.

I'm wanting to create a monthly key stats document, StoryMap is what I'd like to create, EB is what I'm having to create.
