Store Editing Templates in the Geodatabase using an Add-in for ArcGIS Pro 3.3

[#1]

Using ArcGIS Pro 3.3 and ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3 editing templates can be stored in the geodatabase for use outside of ArcGIS Pro. This adds the ability to use the same editing templates with other web or mobile applications. To learn about Editing Templates in the Geodatabase read this blog.  Download a copy of the Add-in built for ArcGIS Pro 3.3 below.

Until the blog gets posted here are the steps for using the add-in

1. Download and double click on the add-in to install it
2. Ensure the correct portal is active and the correct user with publisher permissions is logged in.
3. Open the custom dock pane by activating the Add-In tab, then clicking the 'Show Store Editing Templates Dockpane' button.
4. Ensure the correct map is activated by clicking on the map tab that contains the authored templates.
5. Click on the 'Store Templates' button in the dock pane to store the templates to the geodatabase. The results are then written to the textbox in the dock pane but can also be saved to file using the 'Save Results' button and browsing to a location to save a .txt file with the contents.

Will it be possible to use editing templates from the web published in the webmap or similar?

Hi,

Sorry for the slow reply.

This AddIn is one of the initial aspects of sharing editing templates (including group and preset) through a set of tables in the geodatabase.  Once the templates are written to the tables, web clients (such as the new Web Editor with an early September 2024 release on Enterprise 11.3)  will be able to use those templates.  Future releases of the Editor widget in the Maps SDK for JavaScript will also be able to use the same set of templates from the database.  As will Experience Builder, Instant Apps and Map Viewer as they all use the Editor widget.

Once the templates are in the database authors can create web maps that point to the layers the editing templates are for.  The clients (Web Editor, etc.) will show the templates from the database in the add feature dialogs.
