Hey @Alex-Santos .... that's a nice catch about the two different URLs or views; i had not noticed that before. You are correct that when clicking on the layer from the Search results, the url defaults to 'maps'. The problem there is that we have not published the map service to AGOL. we've only published the individual layers from the map service. I manually replaced 'maps' with 'datasets' in the URL - there still is no map presented (which makes sense because we haven't published one), but here is a button to 'View map'

Hey there, It seems that in the new Hub view-contents version there are some 'bugs' (or at least an odd default behavior) around the Published Date that gets displayed. We haven't figured out all the use cases, but here are some examples: when the Metadata publication date for a data layer is only a year (with neither month nor day), the displayed Published Date defaults to December 31, 1969. For example, the metadata has a Published Date of 1999. That date is rendered in Hub view-contents version as December 31, 1969 When the metadata publication date is a full date but with no time, e.g. 05/01/2010, the new Hub view-contents version shows the Published Date as April 30, 2010. Similarly, for a metadata published date of 1/1/1998, the new Hub shows the published date as December 31, 1997. Maybe that's some sort of UTC conversion error moving everything back 1 day? Our metadata dates do not have time component

Hello, First of all, this is a long one - my apologies before getting started We are developing a new Hub site and i wanted to see how our content would appear in the new Hub content-views version being released May 25. Unfortunately, our data layers are not displaying as expected. The AGOL data layers used in our new Hub site are 'reference' layers; that is, the data is not hosted in AGOL. Instead, the data sources are our ArcGIS Server map services. We are using AGOL as a 'proxy' to access the data. Our ArcGIS Server data is hosted as map services with many layers nested inside 'folders'. For example for our 'vacant and developed land' data, we have 29 layers nested inside the 'develop' folder. So the URL looks like this: https://gis.oregonmetro.gov/arcgis/rest/services/develop/develop/MapServer/0. We use that URL as the "Feature Layer Data Source URL" in AGOL. It seems like the new Hub content page is 'confused' as to whether the item is a Map or a feature layer and thus showing elements of both a map and feature layer - but not completely either one - if that make sense. See the screen cap below.....Any thoughts about what's going on? - The map is missing - Showing 29 Layers when should be a single layer. So its listing all the layers in the folder for the map service - Details - showing as both Map and Feature service - Details - published date isn't right (i'm still working on our end to see if that is bad data coming from our service)

Hi @KlaraSchmitt Thanks for your suggestion, but it seems like either i don't have something right, or the 'Row CSS Class' isn't working like its supposed to. It seems that the contents of the text box are added to the class attribute as a literal value rather than as a styling. Any thoughts about other approaches i can take Thank you for your help.

Hello, At some point all of our Hub data description pages started showing the message Missing translation for key: "license.odb_l" for locales:"en-us" This may have started years ago or yesterday, but i just started paying attention to the message recently. What is the message trying to tell me, and how do i make it go away? Thank you.

In a Category card, i'd like to edit the font-size and font color for each card. The ability to change the appearance of the Category icon already exists, e.g. you can select the color of the icon. i'd like the ability to change the font color to match the icon color and the customize the font size. Currently i am customizing the font on Category cards by adding on to an existing esri class in a text card on my page. .panel-footer {
font-size:18px;
color: #16a8b5;
} i suspect that approach (adding to base Hub classes) is not a recommended tact. Additionally it forces all category cards to have the same color and size. I can imagine a scenario where each Category card might have its own color and font size.

Hello. I am using the Text card HTML Editor to create some custom text that contains a hyperlink. The link is to a Hub search query with results ordered by title. If i include only one of the parameters (and it doesn't matter which one), the HTLM Editor parser is happy and i can Apply the changes. However, if i include a second parameter, the parser is not happy and will not allow me to apply the changes. It doesn't matter if i change the order of the two parameters - the parser is still not happy. I copied the URL from our Hub search page so i know that the combination of parameters is valid and in the right format. Any ideas about what's going on and how i can get the second parameter added?

Hello. In AGOL, is there a way for a relationship class to have multiple 1-M relationships? Here is my use case... I have a main table of CASES. Each case can have one-to-many CREWS assigned. Each crew can perform one-to-many TASKS. Each task could have various other attributes like time spent. I am imagining a single relationship table that has (See image below) -CaseId -CrewId -TaskId -some other attributes Is there a way to support a schema like that in AGOL? If that is not supported, any ideas how best to implement my scenario? Simplified CaseCrewTasks ERD

@BrandonArmstrong I have a couple questions regarding your blog Using Experience Builder and Survey123 to pass attributes and geometry from one layer to another - How do i pass point geometry from my feature class to the survey? I have 'connected' *shape(point) from the feature class to the point question in the survey with no good luck. The survey map does not zoom to the location of the point, and no point is shown on the map. - Is there any way to send related data from the hosted feature layer to the 'repeats' within the survey? - Is there a way to handle situations where more than one point is selected? Here's the use case - multiple points are within the same general area where the user clicked. The map pop-up shows something like '1 of 5'. The data from the first record in the pop-up is sent to survey. Clicking on the 'next' arrow in Pop-up should send the data of the 'next' feature to the survey, but it's not doing that for me. Is there a setting i need to configure? Thank you. Tom

Hi Brian. Do I understand this new-ish Configure Home Page info correctly - the possibility of all the cool customization you and various commenters posted is now considered 'Legacy' and going away 'soon' to be replaced with the 'new home page experience'? If so, are there expectations/plans for somehow re-enabling the ability to do custom css/html for our home pages? Thank you.

Hey Brian Rollison Thanks for the info. We'll hold off on updating our visual regression tests until the green light is given. For your questions..... - One of the main reasons to turn off the button is get our visual regression tests passing again . Additionally, its a new feature that we would likely need to take past our Product Owner as part of our regular product review meetings. Ultimately the PO would need to tell us that they wanted the button there. I don't think there is anything inherently wrong with the Sharing button. - For us there would be no difference in preference of desktop vs mobile. But i could see where that level of control would be a good thing. You know, thinking about this some more, there is something unexpected about having that single button showing up along the side of a desktop screen.... it just kinda floats out there without any real context. The placement of the button at the bottom of the page on mobile devices does make more visual sense to me. So maybe i'll change my answer to yes - it would be useful to differentiate between desktop vs mobile (we might disable on desktop and enable on mobile). Of course that opens up the question about what is the threshold screen size for 'mobile', and all those types of questions. - How best to enable new functionality and notify users is a great question. I guess my answer depends a lot on what the functionality is. In general, though, i think new functionality should be 'opt in' - and i don't have an idea about the best way to let people know. Currently i discover most new Hub features when one of our tests fail. Or if i'm really bored and distracted at work, i'll read the Hub Change Log page. That happens once a month or so - unless I'm working on a hub project, then i check every week. I recognize that neither of those approaches is efficient nor a good way to generate buzz or enthusiasm. Maybe there could be some sort of 'follow' button or some other way to indicate that I am interested when the Hub team adds new features, and notify me. Let me know if you have other questions. Thanks for asking for my input.

Hey there. The automated visual regression testing of our Hub site started failing recently and i was to track the source of the failure to the new (as of 10/29/2020) 'off-platform sharing' button appearing on the pages. According to the Hub change log, i should be able to disable that button in the site Settings page. There is indeed a 'Social Sharing' option in the 'Interactions' panel on the Settings dialog. Toggling the button, however, seems to have no impact on whether or not the Share button is visible - it's always visible regardless of the setting. I am following the new 'Save' workflow of saving the draft, publishing the draft, and then view published. How can i prevent the Sharing button from being visible?

We have a custom app that allows community members to report illegal dumped garbage. We are considering replacing the custom app with a Survey123 Survey. In our current app, we display a 'Report ID' as part of submission confirmation. A citizen can use the Report ID to track the status of their report as it moves through our workflow. The 'Report ID' is really just the object id (plus some other text that is appended to the object id) of the feature that was just created. In the current app, the object ID gets returned as part of the 'ApplyEdits' REST endpoint response of the hosted feature layer where the new feature was added. Is such functionality available in Survey123? Does a survey submission return the object id of the newly created feature? if so, how would i go about capturing that info and applying it to the confirmation page? If not, any thoughts on how i could replicate the behavior of providing a 'report id' for a newly submitted survey? Thank you.

Your reply and links are helpful. Thank you. But i also think that your reply is an example of what i am trying to work past or thru - you've suggested multiple places to check, neither of which really answers the comparison question. Is there a single site or page that documents the differences? Perhaps the nature of Survey123 and how quickly esri is making improvements to it just make that type of site/document not feasible? But it sure would be helpful! Here's a hopefully more precise example.... in the FAQ you referenced, there is this line: If you need more advanced question types or more complex rules, you'll need Survey123 Connect for ArcGIS. What are the more advanced question types and what are the more complex rules? How can i know really what authoring tool to use before i jump in. It's possible that what i think is an 'advanced question' type is not the same as what you think is an advanced question type. I could spend a good chunk of time preparing a survey that ultimately has one of the 'advanced question types' without ever considering it as advanced. I hope that makes sense. Here's my real world experience. About three years ago i sold a client on using Survey123 without ever considering that 'nested repeats' were not supported. It was a huge bummer when several weeks into development i ran into that limitation. To the credit of the Esri team, they heard my feature request and eventually nested repeats become a standard bit of a survey created with Connect - but not with the web app. Those are the types of things i'd like to see in some sort of checklist or some such comparing the authoring experience and the rendering capabilities. I know its impossible to think of every feature an app does not have so it would have been impossible to document 'does not support nested repeats' - i am not asking for that. I'd like to start with a full, detailed comparison of what functionality the two apps do have, and go from there. Thank you for listening.
