Are you wanting to do this with code using ArcGIS API for Javascript? Have you looked through Esri's training resources in the course catalog? It also looks like there are a lot of good tutorial videos on youtube and other articles from Esri that describe certain examples, which could either help you directly or point you in the direction of other resources.  For example, "Creating 3-D Web Apps in ArcGIS Online - Tracking Hurricane Irma" - https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-enterprise/3d-gis/creating-3d-web-apps-in-arcgis-online-tracking-hurric…  The article also directs you to the Esri help page for creating 3-D apps from scenes. It is unclear specifically what you need help with other than general guidance that you could find in tutorial videos. If you have a more specific question perhaps we could be of more help? ...

First off, are you the owner of the group? If so... From the group page -> Members Tab: When you click "Invite Users", have you unchecked "Only search for members in [organization name]"? ... View more

Nicole, I get the same results when I open your map, so it's not just your machine/internet connection, etc.  I also had this same issue working with a large parcel layer. I tried the same things you did, optimizing the layer, rebuilding spatial index, etc but it didn't help much. What I did was rather than have the default view of the map zoomed out to view the entire county, I zoomed in to a section of it so it didn't have to draw as many parcels on start up. Then I just instructed people who were using the app that they probably would not see all of the parcels if they zoomed out too far. Not the best workaround, but I was not able to find any other solution. The only way I could get all of the parcels to render was in ArcMap, or if we downloaded the map for offline use in Collector.  I had some people suggest creating a tile layer from the feature layer to help with faster rendering, but that didn't work for me because I needed the layer to be a hosted feature layer with querying and editing capabilities. However, if you only need it to be "view only", this option could possibly help you.  Anyway, not much help, I know, but just wanted to say that you're not alone. I'd be curious to see what other suggestions people have. Best of luck!  -Katherine ... View more

Dave, Your map in AGOL is not directly tied to your .mxd in ArcMap, since that is stored locally on your machine. If I'm ever in that situation and I need to add a new layer, I just publish a new hosted feature layer from ArcMap into AGOL and add that to the web map. Then you will only have to configure that one new layer, and all your previous additions to the map remain the same. The only downside to this workflow I suppose is that then not all of your layers in the map are stored in the same hosted feature layer. But that's never been a huge problem for me, since it doesn't really affect the user of the web map. All the layers are there in the table of contents, which is usually all that matters to the user of the map.  Hope I understood correctly and explained adequately! Cheers, Katherine ... View more

What workflow are you using? There's no error message, even if you look under Geoprocessing > Results > Current Session? It's hard to help you troubleshoot without more information... Are you able to post the shapefile here?  ... View more

This article has been a lifesaver for me and other GIS users in my company. We are all using method #5. Thank you so much for documenting this! ... View more

Sorry for such a delayed response, Michael. I've been out of the office for a while. At least based on my experience, it seems that yes, any older layer would exhibit this behavior. However, this is definitely one of our oldest features layers that we work with, so I don't really have another layer that I can verify this with. If I did republish the layer, then yes all web maps and apps that use the layer would have to be reconfigured. In my case, I think I'm just going to keep the old layer in there and work around it, since so many people use this layer in Collector for field use. Probably not worth the hassle of changing everything.  Either way, I'm glad I found out what was causing the behavior!  ... View more

Kelly, The point feature layer that I was having trouble with is one that was published back in May, 2017. Just now I tested adding a new field with the same workflow to a point feature layer that I just published yesterday, and it worked fine! The new field remains visible in the data table without having to go to the "show/hide columns" option. Thank you so much for your reply! It seems that the issue was specific to this particular layer, since it was published before the bug was fixed. Cheers, Katherine ... View more

So, I am still having this issue. In the data view tab of the feature layer item page, I click the triple bar "options" menu and add a field. However, whenever I view the table, I have to use the "show/hide columns" option to make these new fields viewable (this applies for any field that wasn't published with the original feature layer). I have to do this step every time that I view the data table.  Can you elaborate on what you did to resolve this? Or are you still having this issue? It seems that the bug that Esri logged is exactly the issue that I am still having, even though they have the bug marked as "resolved".  I am using ArcGIS Online 6.3 Thanks for any insight you can provide on this! ...

I tried the same thing and it results in a "Sql expression syntax error." when I try to verify it. However, I am trying it on a string field - would that affect it?  (btw, I checked and the field does allow null values)  ... View more

Thanks Mike! I don't have much experience with SQL, so I appreciate the help.    How would I set the values to equal NULL with the field calculator interface?  I know it shouldn't be in quotes since it's not a string, but the expression [Inspections notes = NULL] did not work.  It seems that in ArcMap you can use VB Script or Python when using the field calculator, but in ArcGIS Online it's only SQL? It would be super useful if they had the same functionalities/interface. Or is this not realistic? ... View more

So, looking through Explorer, it doesn't seem that you can access the same functionality that you can in the browser version of the web map in the Table of Contents. Unfortunately it looks like the only option is to turn layers on or off. If you don't need the filter to be dynamic, you could set it up ahead of time in the Web Map in your browser and save the map so the filter automatically applies when the map is opened. However, this isn't very useful if you need the field guys to be able to set the filter themselves based on the project/situation.  Sorry I couldn't be more help   Good luck! Hopefully someone else on here will have a better suggestion.  ... View more

I believe Explorer only shows the maps. If you need to look at the apps and can't do so in a web browser, have you tried ArcGIS Companion? It's another mobile app that allows you to easily view the configured web apps on your device.  ... View more

Hi Mike, That was what I thought, but when I open the field calculator, I only see this interface where it seems that I can only set the field equal to other fields. It doesn't let me simply put something like Inspection_Notes = "No notes at this time." to get that value for all of the features.  What am I missing here? ... View more
