There are a variety of resources that you can tap into. They are a bit dispersed, but here are some of my favorite locations to point users to for self-help. Tutorials: Formerly Learn ArcGIS, this destinations covers the entire ArcGIS ecosystem at different levels (beginner to advanced). Use the filters on the left side to find topics of interest. https://learn.arcgis.com/en/gallery/ This is a good one to get started with ArcGIS Online: https://learn.arcgis.com/en/projects/get-started-with-arcgis-online/ Topics: Another great destination, look for the product you are interested in, then click to find additional resources. https://doc.arcgis.com/en/ Product Help: Product help documentation includes getting started guides. For example, these are the search results for ArcGIS Online. https://doc.arcgis.com/search/?q=get%20started%20arcgis%20online&p=0&language=en&product=arcgis-online&version=&n=15&collection=help Esri Academy: A collection of resources included self-paced courses and videos to help you get started. https://www.esri.com/training/ ArcGIS Blog: Blog articles and tutorials covering news, how-to documents, best practices, and more. https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/overview/ As for the free, public ArcGIS Account, our education team is working on course materials for public account users that also underscore what you can do with a full account. These will be emerging with the next release of ArcGIS Online in June. In the meanwhile, there are certain things you cannot do with a public account but basic map authoring and app configuration is possible.   ... View more

When you author a map and share it publicly, you are prompted to also share any layers in the map publicly. If using Living Atlas subscription content, you will be notified. When creating an app using ArcGIS Instant Apps and sharing the app publicly, a similar thing will happen. You will be prompted to ok updating sharing for any maps or layers that are not shared publicly. Living Atlas subscription content will automatically be proxied (meaning it won't cause a public viewer to be prompted to authenticate) and if you are using Living Atlas premium subscription content (that is subscriber content that consumes credits) you will be prompted to ok its use. Bottom line, when sharing Instant Apps publicly, everything should be handled. You can always check by using an incognito window and/or by using the generic URL instead of your organization URL. For example, this link to a public Instant App uses my organization URL: https://onlinelabs.maps.arcgis.com/apps/instant/media/index.html?appid=5d35fea278724eb6ba0afaa9470820cf This link uses the generic ArcGIS URL to to the same app: https://www.arcgis.com/apps/instant/media/index.html?appid=5d35fea278724eb6ba0afaa9470820cf   ...

I forgot to add that you can have that search location tool open when the app is opened, which makes it a lot more obvious.   ... View more

In the Interactivity panel, set Search location on: This will add a location search to the advance/play tools in the upper right. If you search for a location using that tool, all other maps in Portfolio will go to that location. Note that you can also define the location for all maps to zoom to by toggling on Define location, then clicking Configure: Try this sample Portfolio: https://onlinelabs.maps.arcgis.com/apps/instant/portfolio/index.html?appid=e8941e6e95d64efbaaa452e101367af4 In that example I have defined the location for all tabs to open to Riverside, CA. Use the toggle location panel tool in the upper right to enter a new location: This overrides the default location settings and all tabs will open to that new location. If that seems less than obvious for your app users, you can use the app's Intro panel to provide instructions on how to change the location, and can also set the Introduction panel to open automatically when the app is opened.   ...

I wanted to add that a dev team member did underscore that the color picker will evolve, and eventually a defined color picker will be introduced.   ... View more

I appreciate your feedback, and also would agree - it's easier to pick from set of color options and reveal other options as advanced capabilities. I'll make sure the dev team gets the feedback. You can also add this to ArcGIS Online Ideas: https://community.esri.com/t5/custom/page/page-id/arcgis-ideas so others can comment and vote it up for action. ... View more

Ken, It depends on how the features are styled. For example, if they are styled using Counts & Amounts (Color), you'll see the color ramps. If style using unique values, you will see the color picker. While not the same as Classic, it's the new color picker in Map Viewer. ... View more

You've posted here in the Living Atlas Community, this question might be a better fit in the ArcGIS Pro or ArcGIS Online Community depending on what you're looking to do. ArcGIS Living Atlas does have a selection of content for Vietnam: https://livingatlas.arcgis.com/en/browse/?q=vietnam#d=2&q=vietnam&rgnCode=VN In addition, Living Atlas basemaps such as World Topographic, World Imagery, and the others do have global coverage. If you are specifically after those files stored in the UT Austin archives: https://maps.lib.utexas.edu/maps/topo/vietnam/ I downloaded one of those to experiment. While you can add the PDF file as a document in ArcGIS Online, I am assuming that you want to add the topos as layers in a map. To do that, you'll need to use ArcGIS Pro to convert GeoPDF to GeoTIFF, then publish it from there. If Pro is your goal, then the conversion from GeoPDF to GeoTIFF should be what you want: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/conversion/pdf-to-tiff.htm After successful completion of the conversion, you would need to publish it as a service for use in a web map. I gave this a quick try and Pro complained that there was no spatial reference for the GeoPDF I downloaded from the UT site. While it successfully converted the file to TIF, it did not have a spatial reference.  Next I gave it a quick go in a public domain GeoPDF converter. While it successfully converted to GeoTIFF, there were obvious issues in the resultant file, making me suspicious of the source files. Were it me, I would double check the topo archive to make sure they are proper GeoPDF files if your goal is to publish these a map services for use in web maps. Others here may be able to offer other advice.. ... View more

At this time, a Hub is not a supported content type in ArcGIS Living Atlas. The Hub team does maintain a gallery of showcase hub sites here: https://hub.arcgis.com/pages/gallery And you can mention the Hubs you've identified at the Hub Community site to propose inclusion in the Gallery. https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-hub/ct-p/arcgis-hub ...
