Hi Mattias, maps created with the new Map Viewer are expected to work with apps using JSAPI 3x. However, as you mentioned, there are some spots where new functionality is not supported in 3x (details can be found at Compatibility Guide for web maps created with Map Viewer (classic) and Map Viewer Beta. There will be some trade-offs when considering which app to use for a particular map (for ex, a map with dot density or multiple popup elements are best displayed in a 4x app). Here is a higher-level post about web maps created in map viewer beta: Web maps and Map Viewer Beta . Are you thinking of any specific feature that won't be available in Experience builder? It uses the 4x JSAPI, same as map viewer beta so new feature support should be the same for the most part (and should evolve at the same pace as well). Cheers, Chris ... View more

Hi Ben Murphey‌, If you click the Layers button (see screenshot below), the left hand panel will be dismissed. If you have any other panels (Legend for ex), they can be dismissed the same way. Cheers,  Chris ... View more

Hi @lzzhuwh, would it be possible to share the map where you're seeing this behavior?  Thanks, Chris ... View more

Hi Kevin MacLeod‌, Jesse Wickizer‌, Thanks for the feedback, it helps tremendously. Layer visibility (i.e, the the eye) is a work in progress still. We've been making adjustments as part of the updates for Map Viewer Beta..still more coming. Keep the feedback coming! Cheers, Chris ... View more

Hi Bryan, I think John was alluding to raster tile layers that also support export image (which enables them to be re-projected dynamically from the server). Esri raster basemaps support this, while hosted raster tile layers do not. Vector tile layers do not support this at all.  Ultimately, any tile layers published in Online can only be added alongside other tile layers if they are in the same projection. It's fine that the projection is custom, just that all the tile layers in the map would need to have the same custom projection. The recent enhancements in map viewer Beta allow you to switch projections by adding tile layers with custom projections as the basemap and then building your map on top of the custom projection of the tile layer that was just added as the basemap (this is John's workflow basically). Previously, Map Viewer Beta would have prevented adding the tile layer as a basemap in this case. Sorry for the confusion..we'll update the blog post to make it clearer. Cheers, Chris ... View more

Hi Sam, thanks! Great to hear. We're actively working on both grouping layers and tables right now. Tables should be a bit sooner but not for sure yet. Here's a quick rundown of the items in the "Before Summer 2020" list in the road map Map Viewer Beta Roadmap (all are in progress).  Scale driven sizing -- expected to be soon Support for Map Image layer (configuration / authoring) -- expected to be soon  time animation (configuration / authoring) -- soon support for switching between projections -- by summer still (will have incremental enhancements before then) sketch layer -- by summer Tables -- soon Layer grouping -- by summer still Vector symbols -- by summer still Editing and adding attachments -- soon Charts -- by summer still Smart mapping (all styles) -- by summer still (will have incremental updates before then) Cheers, Chris ...

Hi Ben, yes - it looks like the basemap has the same issue (and would need the same resolution posted above). Here is a screenshot of the basemap url in your web map: The web map references https://rcbcmaps.redcar-cleveland.gov.uk/maps/rest/services/rcbc/Basemaps_ext/MapServer  but it appears that the service now resides in the Basemaps_ext folder: https://rcbcmaps.redcar-cleveland.gov.uk/maps/rest/services/Basemaps_ext/Basemaps_ext/MapServer?f=pjson  The reason you're seeing the basemap show as a layer in ArcGIS Online when hovering over the layers on the item details page is because the service has been added as its own layer item in ArcGIS Online (but the url for the service is still ultimately your ArcGIS server service). That item (http://rcbc.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=04031a88daeb4d0f8036bc10e60a81d8) would need to be updated as well (you can do this from the settings tab on the item details page). Hope this helps. Cheers, Chris ... View more

Great thanks! It looks like the server folder structure may have been changed as part of the infrastructure update. If you look at the url references to your services in the web map json, you will see that the services are in a specific folder (you can inspect web maps using a tool such as ArcGIS Online Assistant  😞 https:// rcbcmaps.redcar-cleveland.gov.uk/maps/rest/services/rcbc/LPG_JOINED/MapServer/0 However, the folder rcbc doesn't appear to exist on the upgraded server (at least publicly): folders: Basemaps_ext Basemaps_Firmstep LPG_JOINED RCBC_PUBLIC_INFORMATION Utilities https:// rcbcmaps.redcar-cleveland.gov.uk/maps/rest/services?f=pjson I didn't look too deeply but it seems the services exist in these other folders listed above. To resolve this, you would either need to update the server to match the old folder structure or update each map / app referencing the layers (would need to use a tool where the json can be modified, such as the agol assistant posted above. Or re-add each layer, which can be a lot of work). The former option is usually the best (update the server rather than trying to update all the maps referencing it), but sometimes not possible.

Hi Ben Cochrane‌, Possible to share a web map in this state to check out the issue? Cheers, Chris ... View more

Hi Lucas, Yes Map Viewer Beta will be provided as a separate install - see https://community.esri.com/thread/247258-when-is-arcgis-online-map-viewer-beta-available-for-portal-for-arcgis  for details. Cheers, Chris ... View more
