When admins need to delete accounts for staff who have left the organization, all items need to be removed from the account before it can be deleted. Map Areas (for offline Field Maps) do not show up on the ArcGIS Online website GUI in the account's Content. They also do not appear as a result if using the ArcGIS API for Python to check via user.items(). If the user did not delete their own Map Areas before they left the organization, they become difficult for admins to identify and remove, and so far I've only been able to delete them manually using the AGO Assistant web site. I have an ArcGIS Online Notebook that I've written to identify similar hidden items in the past (like Code Attachments and SQL databases) and delete them, but Map Areas remain invisible. Please consider adding Map Areas to the results of user.items(), if possible, or some other method for admins to identify and remove these items.

I'm looking for a way to do this as well, but for cleanup purposes whenever staff leave. If the staff didn't remove the offline areas themselves, it's difficult for even admins to find them, and the accounts cannot be deleted while there are items in the account. The map areas don't show up in the owner's Content, both in the GUI or when using the ArcGIS API for Python and checking via user.items(). I've only been able to find and remove them manually using the AGO Assistant.

Hello @AlisonOBrien, I went to download the latest from the Survey123 website, which appears to be 3.19. I'm still not seeing the option though, unless it was added back for 3.18 and removed again in 3.19, which would be weird. My New Survey window still looks the same as the screenshot in my original post, above.

Well normally to symbolize imagery you can just right-click the layer in the table of contents and go to Symbology. That will open the Symbology panel where from the first drop-down you can choose how you want to visualize it (Stretch, Discrete, Classified, Unique Values, etc.). Classify would normally be good for visualizing ranges of depths, but in this particular case you probably want to use Unique Values after you reclassify the data into your 1-20 whole number values. Then you'll have to do what is shown in the video where you need to get the red, green, and blue codes for each color you want to use, and include them in the attribute table. Once they are in the attribute table for the image, you can publish it by first making sure you are logged in to your Portal/Image Server and then right-clicking the image file in Catalog and going to 'Share as Web Layer'. Writing this all out, I feel there has to be a more straightforward way of accomplishing this. But I've yet to find it.

Hi Eric, I was hosting with an Image Server as well, it was just that the end user also needed the service to load into an AGO web map with the default symbology. Is your imagery a digital elevation model? Perhaps you need to actually remap/reclassify the elevation values down to your depth classes first, instead of just using the symbology panel to classify them for you on the fly? In that video I linked, you'll notice his imagery has already been classified and each class can be seen in the attribute table. I think I also set the image properties to be "thematic", but it's been a while so I don't remember exactly if that was necessary.

Thank you Kristian, that is all very useful as well! Would you expect a performance benefit using the Reduce function instead of a for loop on larger datasets? I tried both ways on my data, but didn't see a noticeable difference (perhaps became it is relatively small).

‎11-06-2023

Ah! Interesting. I did not know about the Expects function. Your solution works as well (I did have to add an 's' to 'Expect'). Appreciate the help!

‎11-06-2023

Thanks! Your alternative works well. For any ESRI staff that may happen to come across this: if the FOR loop is indeed the issue, it would be nice to have that sort of stuff outlined in the Arcade/Map Viewer documentation, or perhaps a warning visible in the Styles or Arcade editor window when it notices a loop being used. Or if it exists somewhere I haven't found yet, I'd love to get a link. Appreciate your help!

I have a hosted feature service of county boundaries within a web map: https://fgio.maps.arcgis.com/apps/mapviewer/index.html?webmap=c6d86a156e80458e8d4104d20c3900dc The feature service has several fields, each containing only Yes/No values. I want to stylize the layer by getting a count of how many instances of 'YES' there are across all attributes for each record. I wrote an Arcade expression within the Styles panel that correctly returns the number of instances as an integer. I also applied this expression to the pop-up, and can see the expected results for each feature when I click it. However, when I go to actually style the layer (Counts and Amounts (color) for example), the map won't draw using the results of the Arcade expression. It doesn't draw anything at all, or instead lumps everything into 'Other' if I toggle on that option. I have shared the map publicly so that the expression and setup can be viewed. I'm not sure if I'm running into an undocumented limitation or what. I have been scouring forums and have seen many examples that are powering a style with an integer returned by an expression, but I haven't been able to pinpoint why mine is failing. Any ideas? var fieldList = ['Dorian_2019','Sally_2020','Ian_2022','Nicole_2022','Idalia_2023'] var total = 0 for (var f in fieldList) { If ($feature[fieldList[f]] == 'YES') { total += 1 } } return total This spits out a simple integer. All of the results are between 0 and 4.

Aha! Changing the block size to medium and large worked, once I also refreshed the page as you were explaining in your original response. I wasn't putting 2 and 2 together there. Thanks! I also get what you're saying about the the Dashboard app itself determining the layout based on the iframe it's loading into. I guess as a potential improvement to the StoryMaps side then, it would be neat if the embed block could recognize if an ArcGIS Dashboard is being loaded (maybe other ArcGIS Online apps, too, if they have a portrait friendly mode), and then would automatically extend the length of the embed block on mobile to a longer portrait layout to accommodate. Or maybe just a setting to have the embed block change to a predefined portrait display ratio whenever the StoryMap is loaded into the mobile view. Thanks again for the help!

Appreciate the response Owen. A refresh button in the builder would be great! However I'm seeing the issue in a published story (not just the builder). I have created a new StoryMap with just the one Embed block and dashboard as a test that replicates the behavior and shared it publicly if you want to take a look. Here is the link to just the dashboard, as well. The dashboard on its own appears to be switching between the two layouts correctly. But when embedded in the StoryMap it only ever loads in the vertical mobile layout for me, even when viewing the public published story on a desktop sans builder. The only difference between the desktop/mobile layouts in my dashboard is the orientation of the chart. The desktop layout should have a horizontal chart with a legend to the right, while the mobile layout has a vertical chart with the legend below. Perhaps something about my specific dashboard layout is throwing it off? Or maybe I don't have things set up right on the embed block. Currently the block is set to 'interactive' using the small size layout. In the additional options, I have both boxes checked under Large Screens, and under Small Screens it is currently set to 'Live'.

ArcGIS Dashboards introduced new mobile layouts this past summer that allows authors to configure two versions of a single dashboard item, which would then dynamically swap between desktop and mobile layouts based on the screen size readers were viewing it with. I was hoping to take advantage of this within StoryMaps while using the embed block, so that if you viewed the StoryMap on desktop, you'd get the desktop version of a dashboard within an interactive embed block. If you viewed the StoryMap on mobile, then you'd expect to get the mobile StoryMaps layout along with either the mobile layout of the dashboard if in interactive mode, or the static card option that would link to a new window and show the mobile dashboard layout full screen. But this doesn't appear to work as expected, at the moment. When adding an ArcGIS Dashboard with a mobile layout to an embed block in a StoryMap, it appears to always default to the mobile view of the dashboard within the embed block, even when the StoryMap is displaying the desktop (landscape) layout. Changing the size of the block (small, medium, large) makes no difference. Not sure if this is a bug, oversight, or user error, but it would be great to have this sorted out. So many folks view StoryMaps on phones, and simple dashboards are a great option for the embed block to show a basic bar chart or line graph, etc. in a StoryMap. It would be nice to have dynamic layout switching between the two apps work together.

@OwenGeo Maybe I've misunderstood the webpage option—is that more intended for offline usage? We would just like to be able to hyperlink text for use in an online environment, and realize that they wouldn't work in the offline mode. In the past when we've done these meetings, we'd screenshare a Power Point presentation through a webinar that included some different resources and data feeds available to the community. We'd then share out the slides afterward which contained all those URL links for folks to follow up on. Links to Open Data sites, web apps, maps, AGO groups, best practice guides, etc. Some of those things like the web maps/apps will be nice to embed directly within the Briefings and save us from having to swap between a bunch of tabs while presenting, but other things really just need to be hyperlinks for folks to follow-up on later. Some examples of the different resources we share with attendees can be seen here. (This is a final accumulation of resources/notes over a couple dozen calls throughout the event—we wouldn't stuff all of these into a single Briefing) EDIT: I see now that a couple of the example Briefings have hyperlinked text, but there doesn't appear to be an actual option within the builder when highlighting text to add a hyperlink like there is in the StoryMaps builder. However, I did just realize that if you paste hyperlinked text from elsewhere into the Briefing, it will work. Sorry for the confusion. StoryMaps: Briefings:

Looks great so far! We are really excited to use these for our State Geospatial Coordination Call meetings for emergency response. I see under the 'Attachment' option for text there is currently the greyed out option for a Webpage link. We hope this is high on the to-do list, as it will be vital for what we want to do.

‎08-09-2023

If would be helpful if we could include URL links within the Information Banners and Access Notices for ArcGIS Online. There are times when we want to highlight an upcoming webinar, or link out to a page that includes more information about the notice. For example, "Our services will be down for maintenance on June 1 from 1am to 6am. Click here for more information." Or "Join us June 1 at 1pm for a webinar on data governance. Click here for the Teams/Zoom link." etc etc. A full URL isn't practical with the character limit. Either being able to hyperlink text, or letting us toggle an optional button that appears in or below the banner where we can control the destination URL. Thanks
