Hi Robert, //This version number will be appended to URL to avoid cache. //The reason we do not use wabVersion is to avoid force user to change wabVersion when they are customizing app. deployVersion = '2.7'; Thanks, Jay

Hi. We are trying to display the number of available parking lot spaces in our Local Government Public Parking web app solution (built using ArcGIS Pro; the app is configured in Web AppBuilder as part of Esri's solution). We would like to have the space count display when the app opens (as in the screen shot or similar). We have installed a space counter sign for one of our parking lots and are testing it and gathering public feedback. The parking vendor can provide the parking space count data. We can retrieve the count data through their API (they have provided the API key, etc.). Thus, we would like to add the parking space counts to our GIS public parking app (and perhaps elsewhere on our city's website). I have been able to activate the link in pop-ups or an Information widget, but one has to click on the link, which opens another page to display the count. Obviously, it would be much more convenient for the user to have the count show automatically when the app is opened, then click on a link and jump to another web page. I am hoping someone can point us in the right direction. Many thanks in advance.

Hi Robert, I don’t know the app version, how can I determine that? I was using an older version of WAB, and was receiving a ‘fail to import’ error. The error note directed me to upgrade to the most recent version (2.7) of WAB. Thank you for your help! Jay

Hi Robert, Thanks for the quick reply. I am confused. I assumed it is a Web AppBuilder product, based on the screenshot. Regards, Jay

I have installed Web AppBuilder Developer 2.7. I am working with Esri's public parking solution. The 'Import App' fails to import this application. Other applications will import. The command window (log) shows no useful information (to me) as to why the application not import. Also, if I use the 'Delete' on imported apps, does this delete them from my AGOL content? Thank you.

I contacted Esri tech support and received this reply. The issue is known and an enhancement may be available at the next AGOL release. ENH-000105798: "Time slider widget settings are not honored when selecting 'Playback position saved with map' Description of Enhancement : Customer would like to use the same configuration settings used in the time slider from the web map in a web appbuilder template. The Time slider widget settings are not honored when selecting 'Playback position saved with map' in web map. The web map is converted to a Web AppBuilder application and time slider widget is added but the playback position starts at the beginning.

Hi all. I have a municipal crime map app built using ArcGIS Pro, Online, and Web AppBuilder. The web map app includes the time slider widget. My agency would like the app to not display any crime features when the app first opens. I have fiddled with the time interval tools in Pro, and in the web map and web map app, trying to suppress the display of all crime features on the initial app opening. So instead of "scaring" the user by displaying a year's worth of crime data when the app first opens, we would like an blank basemap to open. The user would then click on the time slider widget in the app, and slide back in time to start showing the various crimes. It appears the time slider in the web map app always starts from the beginning of the data set regardless of what I set in Pro or the web map.

Hi Kelly, Thank you for the additional information! Much appreciated. Sincerely, Jay

Hi Kelly, I created the view, but the 'edited by' remained. Before I went ahead and configured the pop-ups in the view, I dug deeper into the hosted feature layer. I discovered I had left the "Keep track of who created and last updated features." checked on in the item's setting page. I unchecked the box, and the issue went away. I am new to feature views, so your suggestion was useful as well. Happy New Year! Jay

HI Kelly, Thanks for the information. I will try creating the views for the services. However, it seems like an additional unnecessary step, as I have all those fields are unchecked in the original service pop-up configuration. At least that is how I currently understand configuring pop-ups. Thanks again, Jay

Hi! I hope this is an easy one. I am using the Public Parking Local Government solution. I have configured the pop-ups to not show 'Editor, EditDate, Creator, and CreationDate' in Pro, and double-checked the pop-up configuration settings in the web map for each feature layer to not show these fields. Whenever I open a pop-up in the parking web map or the web map application, 'Edited by' information is displayed. There is no need to show this, and it takes up valuable real estate in the pop-up. Screenshot attached. What am I missing to suppress displaying this information? Many thanks.

With Esri tech support, I was able to resolve this issue. I was overwriting (republishing) the solution services in Pro by mistake. The Public Parking Soluton is working great now!

Hi, We have a web map app (built in Web AppBuilder) that shows crime data (type of crime, modified location, and time occurred). We pull year-to-date crime data from another system, import it into ArcGIS Pro, then publish (Overwrite) the feature layer for use in the web map and app usually at weekly intervals. When the web map app opens we would like to only show the latest week's worth of data initially. Thereafter, one can use the time slider to go back in time and show more crime. So instead of showing all the crime year-to-date when the app opens, we want to curtail the initial output to the latest week or two, but still be able to use the slider to access results farther back in the year. I could use some advice on how to do this. Thanks in advance.

Allison, Thank you for all of this great information! Sincerely, Jay

Hi Kate, I made some progress. I added the municipal boundary to each web map, and disabled the municipal layer pop-up in each. There is also the option in the app config tool (Options tab) to not display the pop-up of a non-editable layer, which I think will do the same thing, but globally. I noticed if I click on an existing report, the app does not open the record. I have to click on the records until I find the report previously entered to see the content. Frustrating. I think I have this app functioning well enough to test with some users. There are still some config settings I need to figure out, and I need to configure the Manager now. Regards, Jay
