Hi Chris, Apologies for the late reply, I was out on vacation the last couple of weeks. > I suspect wab dev 1.3 does not check CORS enabled automatically which is why it runs fine with our portal. But wab dev 2.0 and 2.1 seems to have this configured by default. I'm not sure if this is the case. Can you please contact Esri Tech Support so they can help you investigate further? If there is an issue I'd like for us to have a valid repro case so we can resolve this for Web AppBuilder. Thanks, Derek ... View more

Hi Dion, > We are looking to publish a public site from ArcGIS portal using web appBuilder with secure ArcGIS server services You can create a public app with Web AppBuilder (from either ArcGIS Online or Portal for ArcGIS) accessing secured web services from an ArcGIS Server site. Note that the web map will need to be shared with "public". Based on the information you've provided, this is not a violation of the software license agreement. If you have additional details around this deployment scenario, you may want to discuss them with your local Esri account manager or Distributor to clarify. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Paul, > My memory from the 2015 UC, is that you said something to the effect of:     Use HTTPS only with Portal.  We're moving to it as a requirement rather than calling it a Best Practice.     Is that true or is my memory wrong? Your memory's incorrect.   I made this statement in reference to the GIS Server. I said that starting with the 10.4 release, when you install an ArcGIS Server site, it will be set to HTTPS by default. > Does Portal require a valid CA certificate or will it work with a self-signed certificate? Technically Portal for ArcGIS can work with a self-signed certificate. In fact, Portal installs with a self-signed certificate by default. But this is not recommended for a production site. Why? Because client machines that connect to Portal will always get the "untrusted certificate error" in their web browsers - which makes for a lousy end user experience. It's better to use a domain or CA certificate, so client machines won't get this error. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Carl, The article tells the story of how the customer is using both Collector for ArcGIS and Survey123 for ArcGIS (as two separate apps) as part of their overall solution strategy. Currently, there is no direct integration between Collector and Survey123, hence why there is no documentation on how to integrate them. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Timothy, "ArcGIS" is not a single software product, but a platform with many different components/pieces - so it's a pretty broad request that you're asking for. First, you should try to understand the overall system; Jack discusses this in the UC 2016 Plenary: ArcGIS Capabilities | Esri Video ArcGIS Components | Esri Video Once you understand the platform, you can then decided which components/pieces you want to focus on. Some great resources include: Esri Training site: Esri Training Learn ArcGIS site: Learn ArcGIS Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Chris, > when you say disconnected, what does that actually mean? Based on an earlier response, I was under the impression that your Portal is setup to work in a completely offline environment, meaning no access to the Internet. But your latest answer seems to suggest otherwise. At this point, I am not sure what the issue is. Can you please contact Esri Tech Support and open an incident so they can investigate your issue in more detail? ... View more

Hi Chris, > Our portal is working behind a firewall. We are a government organization. If you're working in a disconnected environment, you will have to download the latest ArcGIS API for JavaScript v3.16 library and host them internally on a web server (that is accessible by the machine where you are running Web AppBuilder Developer Edition). Then, you will have to update the ArcGIS API for JavaScript libraries being referenced by Web AppBuilder Developer Edition v2.1 to that location. FAQs—Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS (Developer Edition) | ArcGIS for Developers Please see this question: Are portals with disconnected environments supported? Yes. You must set your own apiURL manually in the env.js file. Refer to Change URL of ArcGIS API for JavaScript. By default, Web AppBuilder points to the ArcGIS API for JavaScript hosted by ArcGIS.com.
