Group layers are a way to organize layers in your maps, by common geography, topics and themes, scales, for blending and effects, and more. Saving group layers as items was introduced with the October 2023 ArcGIS Online update and IMHO is a powerful and very welcome capability. Use group layers to organize related layers in your map, optionally set exclusive visibility (showing only one specific layer without having to hide each of the other layers), then save group layers as items enabling reuse across your organization’s web maps or sharing outside your organization. This blog article provides an overview: https://lnkd.in/dVFhJPDf Living Atlas now also supports group layers, search the rapidly growing collection: https://lnkd.in/dtDyX9ZA ... View more

Arcade is an expression language that is supported across ArcGIS. Arcade in pop-ups can be used in two ways; to create attribute expressions used in text elements that can be evaluated like fields, or as separate Arcade content elements that return a complete block of content. Using Arcade expressions and elements, you can take your pop-ups to the next level. One of the best ways to learn more about Arcade in pop-ups is to examine existing examples. The ArcGIS Living Atlas Esri Federal Data collection contains many maps that have used Arcade to format and deliver expressive pop-ups. You'll find simple examples of formatting text, translating codes or acronyms into readable strings, handling text case, and much more.  Just open a map, click Pop-ups on the Settings (light) toolbar, then view the attribute expressions to view the existing expressions to learn more.  For more information and to see more examples, see Pop-ups: Arcade essentials. ...
