I would like to be able to bulk delete groups as an administrator. Currently, there is no way on the "groups" page to select more than one group and take action on it. On the items/content page, one can do more with groups. I came across this while trying to delete many groups that were created with Community Analyst. I'd like to bulk delete these groups from the UI, but finding that there isn't an easy solution. The Community Analyst groups are easy to find as most of their descriptions contain "Community Analyst Project Group". Not sure if this was possible before the UI interface change where one now how to click on the "view details" button on the right side of the item, but finding I want to do more with groups than just one by one.  ...

The “Reassign Content” and “Receive Content” privileges in the Content grouping are great in concept; however, I have privacy concerns with current arrangement that prevents me from enabling this across a university organization. The idea would be to rethink the process for how users transfer ownership of content by supporting notifications and/or other communication between those transferring and those receiving content to address current privacy concerns. This is specifically for the permissions of a user, not the permissions listed under the Administrative functions. Currently when I assign this permission to a user, it automatically grants those assigned this privilege to view folders for all users within the organization who can “receive content”. I’d like to give this permission to students to transfer class or research content to their faculty or research partners, but in order to do this additional privacy measures need to be addressed. Even if I’m receiving content, why does a user need to grant someone else the ability to view all their folders? One idea from this post Option to Restrict the 'Reassign Ownership' privilege based on Administrative Groups, or similar does a good summary of this: “Perhaps another way to address this is to put the power of transferring ownership in the combined hands of the owner of the content and the person who is receiving it. The content owner could select one or more items and specify a receiving user. That would trigger notification to the receiving user, and they could review the list of content and choose to accept or reject the items.” Without these privacy concerns addressed, the burden to transfer ownership of content for universities and other educational entities will likely fall on a few individuals who will have to micromanage this. ...

Create a more streamlined way to transfer/clone ArcGIS StoryMaps from one organization to another. There are several suggested ways to clone and/or transfer an ArcGIS StoryMap from one organization to another. However, these are “workarounds” and still requires a lot of work in order to transfer, including the proper permissions in the source and destination organizations, bugs and other issues depending on the version of ArcGIS API for Python one is using, and having to “re-build” a StoryMap in the destination organization if certain layers don’t transfer but instead are “referenced” back to the source organization. We are seeing a number of users from our University who are collaborating with organizations who have AGO orgs and wish to transfer their work to the partner/collaborator upon completion. As the demand to create ArcGIS StoryMaps increases across our campus, so too does the demand to transfer/clone ArcGIS StoryMaps. The inability to quickly and efficiently create a clone and transfer to another organization is becoming a larger blocker. Here are some existing resources for cloning/transferring ArcGIS StoryMaps pulled from the community.
