One way to make links work in Explorer for ArcGIS is to use a "Custom Attribute Display Popup."  In my data I have a field that has website URLs When I configure link in the popup I can use the website field. In the Explorer popup the link will work. Explorer will also automatically recognize HTTP and HTTPS strings as being links that can be clicked. Also in a Custom Popup configuration, if your field attribute contains HTML the HTML will show in the popup. Mark ... View more

Daniel, Arcade is not supported for Popups in the released version of Explorer, IOS and Android.   Explorer for ArcGIS on Windows (in beta) does support it, and you will see more Arcade support for IOS and Android in the next release of Explorer. (later this summer). Mark ... View more

In ArcGIS Pro you searched for it as I showed in the picture, it appears, and then you right clicked, added... and it appears with a broken link? Which version of Pro are you using?   (I used ArcGIS Pro 2.3.2) The JSON file is the style file with your modifications.  mark ... View more

I have forwarded the information that you have provided to the Explorer team.  Search in not working correctly.  As a workaround for using feature search without an internet connection, add a locator file to the mobile map package.  It doesn't have to be detailed, could be small, just one location.. it will allow the feature search to work without an internet connection.  You will also see coordinates on the sub-line.  Note that you will not be able to find any general world places, as the Esri world geocoder will not be used when a locator is included in the mobile map package.

Travis, In the Catalog Pane you can search for it.. it will show up as a tile layer, and right click on it to add it to the map. Mark ... View more

Using something similar to what you have, you could use an approach like this. {expression/expr1} var a = $feature.notes var b = $feature.popper var attributes = "" If (!IsEmpty($feature.notes)){ attributes = a + TextFormatting.NewLine + b } else { attributes = b } return attributes If Feature notes attribute is not Empty  Show both attributes. Else show one attribute Mark ... View more

Yes, this will work offline, provided the Field workers have the Survey on device and are synched with the latest data.  As Xander Bakker‌ said offline the data is not live, so if multiple people are working offline in the same area it is possible that they could submit for the same feature.

You could do something like this for your expression. If an attribute is empty I show a survey link, Else I don't show the survey link. var status = "text" var openSurvey = "" if(IsEmpty($feature.notes)){ status = "new" openSurvey = '<a href="arcgis-survey123://?itemID=4560a3c533eb41fcb79fa3ec473babc8">Open Survey</a>' } else { status = "done" } return status + " "+ openSurvey I also used a similar expression to label the features according to status.

Rudy, This geonet post may also have some useful information https://community.esri.com/community/gis/applications/arcgis-pro/blog/2018/01/20/use-arcgis-pro-21-to-make-an-offline-map With regard to coordinate system it is best if all of your data in is the same coordinate system.  However, it is ok if operational (non-basemap) feature layers are in a different coordinate system from the map. As best practice,  your network dataset should be in your basemap and the coordinate system of  the Map and Basemap layers should match the coordinate system of the network dataset. Mark ...

That kind of thing happens all the time... for my part I have always seen file: with the three slashes.. so I made an example showing it, and didn't really study your URL any further...   Working now though, so Good Stuff! ... View more

Steven, There is another thing involved...  when you click on a 'File" link on windows the application associated with that file type will open.  For example when I link to a PNG file, clicking the link in the Popup window opens Snagit which is the program I have associated with a .PNG file. It did set an attribute as you described, with the extra /  and it is working for me. Mark ... View more

Jay, There is not a defined size limit, its really the available storage on device that is the limit, a 100 GB mmpk is not unheard of... What type of content is not showing up for you? It is possible to put content or use cartography in a mobile map package that is not supported for display by the particular application or version of ArcGIS Runtime that is being used. Tile Packages (TPK) should work for displaying aerial imagery in most applications. Also, reading up the comments in this post... It is best to have all content in the same coordinate system.  The runtime will not project TPK or VTPK layers on the fly, the coordinate system of the map and the Tile Package and Vector Tile Package layers must match. mark ...

yes, this makes sense...  In the pre-planned workflow your live feature service red, yellow, green building footprints could be another sync enable feature layer in the map.  You could also use a layer definition query so that it does't draw any footprints that do not have status.   Users would still need a connection at some point to synch and see the latest information.  This should work great. ...

Paul, Derek Law‌ posted this rundown of Dev Summit 2019 presentations for Field Apps. https://community.esri.com/groups/mobile-gis/blog/2019/04/26/arcgis-field-apps-whats-new-videos One of them was specific to "Taking your maps offline" at the 33 minute mark ArcGIS Apps: Taking Your Maps Offline - YouTube  The pre-planned offline workflow, which is available in Collector today, is explained and shown.  In a look ahead for Explorer at the 44 minute mark ArcGIS Apps: Taking Your Maps Offline - YouTube  The use of a pre-planned offline map in Explorer is shown.   So, this sort of offline online mix will be showing up for Explorer in the nearer term... With regard to creating mobile map package that include services... that sounds like a good Idea to me. Thanks for the comment, Mark ... View more
