When searching for surveys in Survey123 Connect, it can sometimes be difficult to identify the specific survey you want to open by name alone. It would help in such cases if a person could use an item ID in the search field. In a large organization, some users may end up owning a lot of surveys. Such users may inherit multiple surveys that have the same or very similar names. They may have a survey's item IDy from internal documentation, and email, or other sources, and they would like to enter that directly into Survey123 Connect's search field to find that specific survey.   ...

Are you at a higher-education institution that makes broad use of ArcGIS StoryMaps? Are you responsible for supporting the use of ArcGIS StoryMaps across your institution? Are you able to spend the time to create or identify existing ArcGIS StoryMaps Ideas that will benefit your institution's user community as a whole? If you answered "yes" to all of the above, then please consider joining a discussion -- with fellow higher-ed participants -- of improvements and enhancements your institution would like to see in ArcGIS StoryMaps. The goal of the discussion will be to discuss with the Esri ArcGIS StoryMaps team a consensus-ranked set of top-priorities for higher-ed users at the upcoming Esri User Conference. This activity typically involves each institution submitting up to three top-priority ArcGIS StoryMap Ideas to generate an aggregated list, a period of discussion of those Ideas, and then a rank-voting of the Ideas on that list. If you are interested in participating in this activity, please email me ([email protected]) by Friday, 14 June. We have carried out this activity a couple times so far, and the ArcGIS StoryMaps team is excited to continue the process, and looks forward to meeting with us at this year's UC. We don't always get what we want right away, some things take A LOT of work and some things cross multiple development teams' boundaries. Getting things on their radar, however, has been very helpful in the long run. ... View more

I would like an option to turn off the auto-numbering of stories in the Grid layout for Cover in a StoryMap Collection. Sometimes you have a collection of stories where the numbers may be mistaken for an indication of the ranking of the stories, or some other incorrect inference. It would be helpful in such cases to be able to disable the automatic numbering to avoid potential confusion or misinterpretation. ... View more

Please provide documentation for the command line parameters supported by SoftwareAuthorizationPro.exe.  There are a couple examples that show how to use SoftwareAuthorizationPro.exe to silently authorize Pro with Single Use licensing (e.g., Additional examples of a silent installation of ArcGIS Pro.) And by trial and error I did discover that one can use "-return all /s" to silently deauthorize Pro and all extensions. It would be helpful, however, to know what all the command-line options are.  ... View more

I would like to see credit allocations enabled by default for ArcGIS Organizations. I believe that is an important prerequisite to setting up organizations for success, and avoiding unexpected or unanticipated organization-wide issues stemming from accidental usage by a one or a few people at the wrong time. Credit-based Software as a Service (SaaS) systems are a new concept for many organizations and users. Having credit allocations initially in place would help protect them while they are developing their understanding of how credits work, and how they pair with their organizations’s GIS workflows and needs. I think it is also worth considering enabling credit allocations retroactively for existing organizations. ... View more
