Tell me I'm just not looking in the right place. Is there not the option to add a field to a report after it has initially been created? I'm not talking about a dynamic text element with a field value in the report- I'm talking about the list of fields specified when the report is created. I neglected to add a specific field that I now want to use to sort the report (Report Properties->Sorting) and since that field isn't in the list, I can't sort it on that field. Right now, it appears to me as though I have to make the report from scratch which seems absurd. Changing the Data Source (Report Properties->Source) offers no options about fields.

Someone who is savvy and versed in the Mapbox API could probably extract the layer of your trip from the web map as a JSON or GeoJSON format object and then you could use Pro's JSON to Feature Tool to import it. That person is not me but that's how I would approach it (and have for ESRI powered web maps).

Have you seen this recent ESRI Blog post about the public notification instant app?..

I'm trying to develop a report template in Pro that I can publish and then use with Experience Builder and the Near Me widget to replicate functionality I had originally developed with the Javascript API. I have created a pie chart per the Help Document but when I go to insert it into the Detail Section of my report, the command remains greyed out. If I click on the report header, the chart is available for insertion. Why can't you insert a chart into the detail section? This makes no sense. The report I'm designing uses ESRI's page per feature template Steve

I wonder if the course of action it takes is related to the line's direction (from/to nodes)..

Having just needed to submit an update request myself, I should share what I think is an updated map link to submit requests in. I believe the new suite of apps ESRI has to submit basemap feedback can be accessed here. While I did submit an imagery feedback through the older web map I had linked out earlier in this thread, the newer Instant App based interface seems to be the preferred method now (the actual feature did get added to the underlying layer through the older web map, though).

No problem. With all things ESRI, have low expectations and be pleasantly surprised when they act. 😆

I'm sure ESRI has some sort of update schedule (no idea of what it actually is) but they also do have the Imagery Map Feedback where you can draw their attention to areas you think they should get updated imagery.

Unlike Arcmap which had the Graphics to Features command in the Graphics Toolbar, in Pro you need to use the Toolbox to accomplish this. Go to the Analysis Ribbon and click on Tools to open the toolbox. In the search bar, just type "graphics" and Graphics to Feature should be one of the results. Click it, select the graphics layer in the dropdown and then add the remaining parameters.

I would just right click on the layer in the Table of Contents and select Labelling Properties from the menu. That's where you define your labels and their symbology. Once that's set, right click on it again and then click the option located immediately above Labelling Properties (Label). That will actually toggle the labels on and off. The context sensitive Ribbon is one of the biggest gripes about Pro (for me at least).

Interesting. I don't know about the Instant Apps angle but I've found that exported PDFs from Experience Builder (using stock AGOL EB) *are* geoPDF'd

I'm not an admin so take any of this with a grain of salt....is that new layer also new inside SDE? How are the privileges on that layer in SDE compared to other layers in SDE which do work in the web maps? I mention this because I had a situation where a specific layer would cause a print task to fail. It turns out that I had not assigned privileges to the SDE headless account and that's what caused the heartburn in my Experience Builder app. FWIW, here's the post I had created about my issue. I don't know if this what's causing your issue but it's something to confirm.. Steve

Depending on how complex it is, you could add a popup window with tabs where each tab covers a topic / aspect about the application or just link out to a PDF document where you describe things in as much detail as you'd like.

You're right but ESRI's using the intrusive badge scanning simply to gauge attendance at sessions so that topics are "best fitted" for room capacity. Throughout the years, you'd have a topic with wide appeal being offered in a closet while the most obscure and focused topic of Enterprise maintenance would be housed in a room with ballroom capacity.

I added an idea for this (link here) earlier this year. Based on some of the conversation in my idea's post, this may be on ESRI's to do list in the near term (whatever that means).
