I have what I think is a pretty common dataset: forest cover by country for several years. The data is a polygon for each country, with various attributes for forest cover: forest in 2000, forest in 2005 etc.. Why can't I chart these over time? Say I want to click a country in the map and see that forest cover over the different years in a chart? This was so simple and easy in the old operations dashboard but the new version doesn't have that flexibility. So I purchased INSIGHTS but it seems all I can do is take sums and averages of data (which is silly when I only have 1 value per polygon so the sum/avg doesn't do anything). Why can't I add more than 1 series to any of the bar charts? Like you can in the Web App Builder Widgets? It seems weird that those functionalities aren't here.  I can make a summary table, which shows what I want, but then no charts are possible? How should I set up my data for this? Do I need to create separate tables/feature datasets for each country?  ... View more

hi there, I have an app that is shared with my organization (we have an institutional account) - I do not want it public because there is sensitive information in it. The app is intended to be embedded in a simple website that is accessed by SSO authentication (the same accounts we use for our institutional AGOL). How can I make the app automatically visible in the website without the user having to log in again?  Is there a way to have sort of automatic authentication? I looked into the registered app logins, (Implementing App Login | ArcGIS for Developers) but the options are way over my head... what URL can I put in my iframe to remove the login window and have users automatically log in, either with the same SSO credentials, or one same Viewer account for everyone? I see I have a token and stuff but don't know what to do with it...or do I need to get a developer or web designer or both? thanks for your help!   ... View more

I have deployed survey123 on android phones for field data collection in a remote location in Zambia. The app works great, the issue is that our collectors enjoy the phones a bit too much for facebooking, whatsapp, video streaming and so they run out of data credit and they can't send in their data and we have to go pick up the phones. So i need a solution to lock down the apps in Android so that they can ONLY use Survey123. I have tried these kiosk apps which restrict the phones to only a few apps, but survey123 won't completely work as there seems to be a browser interaction I am not aware of, so it does not let you complete a survey. I have also tried parental controls for kids but those are giving me problems too. I'm sure someone has come across a way to deploy professional data collection devices with Survey123? Can anyone recommend a FREE solution to deploy an android smartphone that is ONLY a survey123 collection device? It must be a free app, as the phones are mostly offline and so these server-based management systems are not really useful in that regard. many thanks! aurélie WWF Germany ... View more

please, please provide a way for people to make data OPENLY accessible and downloadable! We have spent weeks designing and launching our ArcGIS Online open data site, hosting large raster datasets on arcGIS for Server...only to find out that the downloaded raster datasets from Open data are only thumbnails - even though the little dropdown clearly says "full dataset."  This is awfully misleading! There is currently no way to download full resolution rasters from Open Data  looks like a full dataset to me! (nope!) According to Esri: "ArcGIS Open Data gives you a quick way to set up public-facing websites where people can easily find and download your open data in a variety of open formats" "Anyone can use data published on ArcGIS Open Data at no cost. Download raw data and share your insights with your community or build new applications that serve specific users." This is unfortunately not true for raster datasets and if it is not fixed, then users should be made aware that they need to host their datasets (particularly large ones above 1GB) on dropbox, google drive, ftp etc...  please, please p#rovide a way for people to make data OPENLY accessible and downloadable in standard formats for people who might not have arcGIS!   arcgis opendata‌ agol‌ #data download ...
