It seems like the field calculator should be able to do what you want. It will calculate all records equal to a particular value. thanks Mike

There are two separate lists that get created in a layer, one that defines the list on the field (domain) and one that defines the types and templates for creating new features and these are not in sync. ArcGIS Online uses the list on the field to populate the dropdown when editing a feature through the edit popup or table. (Note there was a bug with the table at the time of the initial post here, where the table dropdown wasn't showing the list on the field). Both ArcGIS Online and Collector use the Types and templates list when creating new features. Adding a new entry to the field list (domain) doesn't automatically add to the types and templates. You can manually add an entry in AGOL from the Edit tab of the map viewer. At the bottom of the panel, click the Manage button. This will allow you to add a new type for the new list value (domain). In your case, you want to keep the field list and types and templates in sync, but there are workflows were people want to maintain distinct lists for creating features that doesn't match the set of all features that exist. In your example, say no more Monitoring wells are to be installed. You don't want people to create new ones so you remove it from the types and templates. However, monitoring wells exists in your data, so it's still part of the list defined on the field. This is an area we'll be looking at and trying to improve for future updates, so hopefully we can address some of these issues you see now. thanks, Mike

Keith Reed‌ While the hosted service stores dates in epoch time, UTC, date fields will always show in the local time in a web browser. That's because the web browser converts dates to local time. Here's something that I thought of that may work for you. I added a new string field to my layer and used the field SQL (not Arcade) calculate option (On the data tab) to calculate the my stringDate field equal to the date field. The result was that the stringDate field contained the UTC date value as a string. I was then able to edit the string value of the date and then calculate the date field equal to my stringDate field. Since the calculation happens on the server. it's all in UTC time, as the server does no timezone conversion. The server seems to handle the data type conversion automatically (date to string and back). This approach will require you to periodically calculate the date field as edits are made to the stringDate field. Just an idea. Mike

You need an ArcGIS Online subscription to share maps privately to other subscription holders. Without one, there isn't any concept of sharing privately with a link, like some video hosting websites allow. You can only share publicly. If you are already an Esri customer, I suggest you contact your sales manager as you may already have access to ArcGIS Online. If not, you can learn more about subscribing from the ArcGIS Online website. Here's a link that will give you an idea of pricing. ArcGIS Online Pricing | Contributor & Viewer Subscriptions.

No, I don't believe it is possible to create irregular time slider intervals. Given that you have a small number of years for which you have data, have you considered making a series of maps that focus on the years where you have data and just animating through that year? It might be interesting to combine these maps in a storymap to give you the overall sequence. Just an idea. Mike

When you first added the layer to the map, the map got the list of available fields in the layer and stored it in the map. Adding a new field later didn't alter the map's representation of the available fields. Removing the layer and adding it again caused the map to get all the available fields at that time, which included the new field. The visible fields in the map are defined by the popup settings, which affects both the table and the popup. (See below for why this happens.) Alternatively, you could have configured the popup to show the new field (choose Configure Popup from the layer menu, then choose Configure Attributes to display the new field). Doing this will save it to the map. You can do the same thing from the layer's Visualize tab, which saves the popup configuration to the layer. Why is field visibility in the table governed by the popup? This is a old "feature" that resulted from how ArcGIS Online developed over the years. At first, AGOL only had a popup, no table. In defining the popup, you'd specify the visible fields you wanted to display in the popup. Then, we added the table to the map viewer. It made sense that the visible fields you displayed in the popup would also be the ones you want to display in the map viewer table, so we reused the field visibility defined in the popup for the table as well. Tables in the map viewer are somewhat transient and we thought it might be strange if the popup showed one set of fields and the table a different set. Then, we introduced the Data tab with its much more persistent table. Still, the popup governs field visibility in the Data tab table. Thus, even though you show a field from the table show/hide menu option, it will only persist while you're looking at the table. Refresh the page and it will revert back to the popup field visibility definition. We do want to decouple field visibility in the table from the popup, but just haven't done it yet. It's on the list.

OK, after reading your post more thoroughly, it appears feature templates are not a factor here as you're adding records to a related table. Have you built your own custom web application? I'd still check to see if some browser setting is caching values. *********** original reply ******** ArcGIS Online does have the notion of "feature templates" that provide default values for certain fields that you define. Manage feature templates—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS. However, the fact that you don't see this behavior in Collector seems to indicates it's not a default value being set from ArcGIS Online. I think the browser may be caching the entered value and auto-filling values in subsequent records. Have you tried a different browser to see if it behaves the same way? Mike

Hi Joe Unfortunately, there have been no new developments in this area and this is not a project that is on schedule for any near term release. For me, this feature falls into a larger scoped project of general data update that includes other sources of data. Sorry, this probably isn't what you want to hear. Mike

Trip McLaughlin When you publish a CSV file, via Add Item from my computer on the Content tab, you can specify the time zone your time data is collected in. The option is at the bottom of the dialog. The default value is UTC.

Unfortunately, there is no way to edit the legend text as far as I know. Mike

kakaufman‌ No. Private sharing is not a feature that public accounts have access to. A public account holder will not be able to join a group created by an organization. Private sharing is only a feature of a subscription. Mike

kakaufman The information presented in this post is still valid and the business model has not changed. Public (free) accounts can't share items privately. In order to share privately, all parties must have a subscription to ArcGIS Online. Then, items can be shared privately through groups that all parties belong to. Hope this clarifies things. Mike

wbgisuser‌ as far as I know there have been no updates on this idea for either setting a maximum scale, or allowing zooming in beyond the maximum scale of the basemap.

You might want to check if the role of the user permits them to join groups.
