It would be very handy to have the capability to copy content within the AGO interface content pages.  Tools like AGO-Assistant and Geojobes Admin Tools for ArcGIS are helpfull, but it would be more efficient if these capabilities were available right from the content page ie. select content, click copy options based on privileges: owner/folder to copy to rename item keep item details or not owners of content should be able to copy their own content (shouldn't be an admin privilege... but it could be an assignable privilege) content types to copy web maps web apps ...possibly others... ...

When we build applications in ArcGIS Online, we have many choices of app templates/builders to use.  Unfortunately "my content" nor anywhere in the items details explicitly indicates what template was used to build the app. Its time consuming to open the app just to find out if its a Story Map Journal, or Story Map Series, Or Web Appbuilder App etc. Some of our projects use multiple web applications that are built using different templates or builders.  Currently we use a naming convention to include an acronym that indicates what template/builder was used to create the app i.e. app name: "Cumulative Effects Project - SMJ", where SMJ indicates Story Map Journal app name: "Cumulative Effects Project - WAB", where WAB indicates Web Appbuilder app name: "Cumulative Effect Project - SMS", where SMS indicates Story Map Series .... Please find a way to explicitly state what template or builder was used to create the Web Mapping Application.  This would improve the utility of My Contents and Item Details. ... View more

When a web map has feature search enabled/configured (i.e. search for features in a web map layer via the search widget)...the Story Map Journal supports the web map's feature search in the main stage (when configured to use a web map)...however, the same support is not available when configuring a main stage action to zoom to a location. I would like to see this supported when configuring text in the panel to zoom to a location (main stage action) when the text is clicked.  Currently this allows you to search for a location using the default esri geocoder, but it doesn't support searching for features in the web map. Currently... the map used to configure the location is just a generic web map instead of the web map with layers that is shown in the main stage.  The map used for configuring the location doesn't show any feature layers from web map used in main stage  ...thus making it very difficult to find features to zoom to. ...

In the web map when a layer does not draw completely, there is a warning provided.  i.e. However, if the same map is viewed from a Web Appbuilder App (possibly other configurable app templates too), no warning is displayed. Please enhance the apps such that warnings persist in the web map when viewed from app. ... View more

Add an option to allow users to mark groups as favourites.  When users belong to many or own many groups, this would provide another way to find groups faster. ... View more

It would be handy to be able to filter a group's content by owner.  Currently its possible to sort on Owner, but there is no filter to just see content shared by one member (searching for member's name doesn't seem to work) Current problem:  Can't change owner for content shared to a group with update capabilities.  Unfortunately currently requires me to unshare content from group.  Only way for admin to do that is to go to the group with update capabilities and find the content one by one.  This is very time consuming, especially when many members have shared content to the group.  Also its very difficult to know what group to go to because the items details shows as not shared - even tho the item has actually been shared to a group with update capabilities.  note: these issues have been flagged with Esri thru other channels. ...

It should not be possible to allocate more credits than the total credits remaining in the organization - currently this can be done.  Total credits allocated can be greater than total credits remaining on the subscription  i.e. credits remaining = 1000;  user A credits = 500, user B credits = 500, user C credits = 500; total credits allocated = 1500. ...

We have a custom role defined that provides the member the admin privilege to reassign ownership of content.  The following error is a barrier to reassigning ownership, especially when there is a lot of content to reassign that is arranged in folders in the source member's content.  Ideally it would be nice to have the option to move change ownership of the entire folder: Could this be logged as an enhancement request please: if privilege allows member to reassign content, the privilege should also allow the member to create new folders in the destination member’s My Content. ...

Business case:  Multiple users maintain a source dataset outside of ArcGIS Online (AGO).  The dataset is published to AGO as a hosted feature service (hfs) via ArcMap.  Edits to the source data require that the hfs be updated using the overwrite publishing option. The workflow to create the original hosted feature service (hfs): Publish hfs from ArcMap to AGO Edit source data in ArcMap re-Publish hfs from ArcMap using overwrite option. Problem:  Only the owner of the hfs can overwrite the hfs in AGO. Currently the only options I can think of – which I consider cumbersome, not ideal, and workarounds at best are: Change ownership of the content to facilitate another user overwriting (this may require user to have additional privileges - cumbersome and not ideal) Share credentials for an account that owns the content that multiple people need to be able to overwrite (again – not ideal and a workaround at best) Related ideas on Geonet: https://geonet.esri.com/ideas/10992 https://geonet.esri.com/ideas/11177 ...
