Experience Builder - Editor widget: Non-power users need to download attachments from a feature in the Editor widget. Use case: copying/pasting feature with attachment - workaround. To non-power users, it's not always obvious how to download an attachment. For a photo, the user needs to click the photo, which opens the raw image in a new tab, then right-click the image to save as. Idea: Make it easier to download the attachment by adding a download button to the Editor widget. I can send a video of the worflow to Esri staff in a private message.

Experience Builder - Editor Widget: I have a feature in layer1 that has an attachment. I've copied the feature and want to paste it into a different layer: layer2. Since copying/pasting feature attachments isn't supported, I want to use this workaround: Copy the feature from layer1. Download the layer1 attachment as a file. Paste the feature into layer2. Before saving layer2, add the attachment from my downloads folder. Step 4 doesn't work because the attachment button at the bottom of the Editor Widget is missing. The attachment button only appears after I save the new feature. Idea: When pasting a feature, allow adding an attachment before initially saving the feature. Related idea: Editor Widget — Include attachment when copying/pasting feature

@AlixVezina There are limitations with copying/pasting attachments, too. If the source feature has an attachment, it doesn't get pasted into the destination feature. And we can't manually add attachments to the destination feature until we save the new destination feature, and then update it afterwards.

@AkshayHarshe Your last sentence made me chuckle.

Note: For multiple select fields, one option is to manually format the text into a list using hyphens: - item 1 - item 2 - item 3 That at least makes the list items readable. I suppose that could be done programmatically too: convert comma-delimited to line breaks and hyphens.

If I recall, I couldn't get the pop-up method to be honored in Experience Builder, so I used form configuration instead.

An uneducated idea, as a last resort: Could you click a hyperlink (for a given feature) in the Pro map that pops up a Portal web map form (with field grouping/formatting) in the browser -- for editing the attributes of that specific feature? I imagine that'd be clunky and not worth doing. But I thought it was worth asking.

ArcGIS Pro Roadmap - November 2025 Support for Attribute Editing Forms- The first phase of this project will provide support in ArcGIS Pro to use attribute editing forms created in other ArcGIS applications (Map Viewer and Field Maps Designer). The second phase will provide support for building and configuring forms from ArcGIS Pro. ArcGIS Pro Idea: Attributes Pane advanced configuration

ArcGIS Enterprise Question: Future Attribute Editing Form functionality in Pro (via feature service/web map) — What setup would be needed in Portal? https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-questions/future-attribute-editing-form-functionality-in-pro/m-p/1697444/highlight/true#M44097

The ArcGIS Pro Roadmap (2025 edition) says: Mid-term (next two or three releases) ... Support for Attribute Editing Forms - The first phase of this project will provide support in ArcGIS Pro to use attribute editing forms created in other ArcGIS applications (Map Viewer and Field Maps Designer). The second phase will provide support for building and configuring forms from ArcGIS Pro. I'm a Pro power user (non-admin), using data in an Oracle enterprise geodatabase. I have limited experience with AGOL and no experience with Portal. A question for the future: (out of curiosity) For the first phase of this future functionality, what setup/work would be needed to serve up a SEWERS SDE feature class to a feature service, so that I could use web map > form configuration functionality in the attribute pane in ArcGIS Pro? Such as field groups. Is it relatively straightforward to serve up an SDE FC as a feature service? My organization is in the process of allowing power users to create web maps, dashboards, etc. in Portal. I'm wondering if a power user could create a SEWERS feature service for the below use case, or if I.T. would need to do that. Use case: ArcGIS Pro Idea: Attributes Pane advanced configuration It would be nice if the Attributes pane could be configured to group attributes so that editors can focus on important data without having to scroll through dozens of fields...

@AlixVezina Great. Thanks. Should this idea be moved to the Survey123 Ideas Community?

@JimmyBowden Would field highlighting help at all? If you were to highlight like-fields in the attribute table, would those fields get highlighted in the attribute pane too? Does the attribute pane in ArcGIS Pro honor AGOL/Enterprise web map > form configuration groupings? I imagine the answer is no. Edit: ArcGIS Pro Roadmap - November 2025 Support for Attribute Editing Forms - The first phase of this project will provide support in ArcGIS Pro to use attribute editing forms created in other ArcGIS applications (Map Viewer and Field Maps Designer). The second phase will provide support for building and configuring forms from ArcGIS Pro.

Likewise, grouping fields is possible in an AGOL web map > form configuration, for use in the editor widget in Experience Builder. I imagine the same thing can be done in Field Maps too. Editor Widget — Make read-only fields look different from editable fields Like you say, it would be nice to do this in ArcGIS Pro too.

My Ideas
