Hello,

We're trying to deploy a story map shortlist from our web server and keep getting the error "Map creation failed. Cannot read property 'dateFormat' of null" when launching from a web browser.  Has anyone else experienced this?  I did a quick search on Geonet and found a similar thread about WAB 1.1 (https://community.esri.com/thread/162109).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

Bill

Hi,

Looks like this is an issue in the ArcGIS Javascript API that has been resolved with the 3.14 release. Shortlist is using the previous 3.13 version.

Could you try to upgrade the API and let us know how it goes?

You would have to update those three lines, just replace 3.13 by 3.14

If this does not fix your issue, could you share a link to your application?

Hi Bill,

We have recently updated and released a new version (1.4.7) of shortlist that now uses version 3.14 of the ArcGIS JavaScript API.  It can be found here:
