Looks like there may have been some issues on the 28th with hosted services https://status.arcgis.com/ If you continue to have issues, I'd suggest contacting Esri Support.     Mike     ... View more

Hi It isn't really feasible for AGOL to specifically auto hide layers due to lack of access. The challenge is that AGOL doesn't know why the layer returns an error. In your case, when someone else looks at your map who doesn't have access to your layer, AGOL doesn't know that the layer exists but that this person just doesn't have permission to see it. To AGOL, from the perspective of that other person, the layer doesn't exist. Thus, AGOL can't identify layers with errors due to sharing differences.  Map Viewer does check when saving a map to ensure that all layers are shared the same way as the containing map. This should help alleviate layer sharing problems for the intended audience.  thanks!     ... View more

Hi, With a public account, you can upload smaller CSV, GeoJSON and KML files directly into Map Viewer as shown below.  You can also reference many layers via a URL. If you want to upload your data and create a hosted feature layer, you'll need to purchase a subscription. Click the Pricing tab to see the options available to you.   ... View more

An administrator of an organization can change the owner of an item to another member in the organization, but can't transfer the item to an account outside of the organization.  However, for an item like a map that is accessible by another person, it is possible for that other person to do a "Save as" to make their own copy of the map.  ...

@RyanBohan  The Add button defaults to browsing for layers already within arcgis online. If you instead click the dropdown arrow, you'll see the same options, as @jcarlson posted via the plus button.   ... View more

@JimMiller3 Thanks for letting us know. We'll try to get this fixed this week. ... View more

The 'Review Sharing' window alerts you to layers in the map that may not be visible to your intended audience. Commonly, this is because you're sharing your map at a particular level or to groups that the layers aren't also shared with. This appears to be your case based on the image you attached. All layer sharing can be updated to what the map is shared at when you click 'Update sharing'. You can also check the sharing level of each layer in the preview pane. Just click on a layer. The figure below that highlights the current share level of a particular layer displayed in the pane. However, the preview pane doesn't go into great detail about the difference in sharing between the map and each layer. There are other cases that this window will alert you to. For example, you won't be able to update the sharing level for layers you don't have permission to update. Another alert informs you when you're sharing a map publicly that contains living atlas layers that require a subscription to view. These kinds of messages are displayed much more prominently, as highlighted below. Can you expand on what additional information you'd like to see here? Is it enough to know that layer sharing will be updated to be in sync with the map's sharing? I suppose we could display the specific sharing changes that will be applied to each layer, but is that useful? It could be quite detailed, particularly if your map is shared to a lot of groups that the layers aren't. ... View more

@KirstenHazler  After some investigation, you are right. Image Collection has been removed as an option when adding a ZIP file in ArcGIS Online in the most recent update. This type typically serves as the source data for publishing an imagery layer in the Enterprise version. Publishing from an image collection isn't supported in Online.  However, the options to add a ZIP file of this type has exist previously, and customers like you used this type to store a collection of images not intended to be used to create an image layer. As a workaround, you can alternatly identify your zip file as "Photos with location" and NOT choose the option to also create a hosted feature layer.    Sorry for my confusion. Mike     ...

@KirstenHazler  Can you elaborate on what you're trying to do? Here's a link to the documentation that lists the items that can be added to ArcGIS Online. https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/reference/supported-items.htm If your goal is to simply upload an image file and store it in ArcGIS Online, you can add any file on your device by dragging and dropping the file over the New Item dialog or clicking the option to upload from your device. You don't need to identify the file type beforehand. ArcGIS Online will identify it for you by its file extension, ask for clarification (e.g., what's in the ZIP file), or indicate file is not a supported type (e.g., 7z). If your goal is to add image file for display as a layer in the map, then you need to add your image as an imagery layer. There are several ways to do that. Here's a link for more information. https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/reference/map-image-elevation-imagery-layers.htm Keep in mind that an if you want to publish an imagery layer and host it in ArcGIS Online, you'll need an ArcGIS Image for ArcGIS Online license. Hope this helps, Mike ... View more

@DavidPhillips3 I don't believe there are any plans to move Web AppBuilder to JavaScript 4.x.   Mike ... View more

@DavidPhillips3  The JavaScript 4.x API is available for ArcGIS Enterpise. Apps built with Web App builder use the JavaScript 3.x API. You might try using Experience Builder, which uses the 4.x API. Here's a matrix that compares Web App Builder with Experience Builder. Mike ... View more

Hi @Olwyn_Bruce  Can you elaborate on what you'd like to see?  The home page currently allows full and half screen size display of the cover image. The home page is designed to be responsive to the size of the screen and adjust components accordingly. That does mean that the cover image won't display exactly the same way on different screens. You do have the ability to set the focal point of your cover image that will always be visible regardless of the screen size.  On the desktop, you can pretty much see the full cover image. To display at full screen size on a phone, the cover image does get clipped to fit the screen Are you suggesting we allow scaling the cover image like my mockup below? This would have implications for scaling all components on the home page. For instance, how would a logo and title appear over this cover image? Would they scale down too? What about item gallery thumbails? They might look disproportionately large with a scaled down cover image.  In general, the home page follows a responsive design pattern that most modern websites follow. Components maintain their relative size for accessibilty and the layout adjusts accordingly.     ... View more
