Fatal error: Invalid configuration (web map or application identifier not specified)

[ThomasHerbreteau]

I followed this page https://github.com/Esri/map-tour-storytelling-template-js step-by-step, and unfortunately, it didn't work.

The goal for the assignment is to have the story map template work. Here's a link to my gallery on my portfolio website. Scroll all the way down and click on "ArcGIS Online map", an orange box http://www.stainlessmapping.com/Gallery/gallery.html

The error will appear, and I am not sure how to fix it. Could it be a file placement issue?
I attached my index.html (which is like the readme.pdf from the storytelling template Git-hub page).

The story map does work just fine in the online application. I am able to make an iframe on my website, and it work just like it should.

I hope I have been clear enough. Thanks for the help!

Right, but I think the code from this repository is broken since I can easily configure other Story map templates with the same map id...

Please check the code here:

Esri/map-tour-storytelling-template-js · GitHub

However, this one is easily configured and deployed:

http://links.esri.com/storymaps/map_tour_template_zip

Why are they different?

Ok good, you have the good one. One is for user that just want simple configuration and the other for developers, see Esri/map-tour-storytelling-template-js · GitHub

Hi Andy,

In the time that has passed since your question about the Zoo Babies app the Story Maps Team has released a new version of the Story Map Series template that supports the "bulleted" layout of the Zoo Babies story. You can find more information here.

Hi Gregory,

Yep that worked.

Many thanks
