There are a few ways to add a shapefile to ArcGIS Online. This page lists many different ways and should help you to get the data on the web that you want to see: Add layers—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS

Hmmm, that's a good point. I was hoping that would be an easy fix but I guess the documentation does not state where or how to change it, unfortunately. Sorry about that. This might require a support inquiry to Esri.

It says so in the documentation of 10.3 Portal for ArcGIS Server Extension | Overview Portal for ArcGIS, which is included with ArcGIS for Server Standard and Advanced, provides the same great experience as ArcGIS Online but within your infrastructure (on-premises or in the cloud). ...but that doesn't mention Workgroup... So I am not sure.

Dan, that is interesting because the documentation in that link shows it as caps: However, further down below, it has Shape like you listed: That would be nice if it were as easy as a case-sensitive issue... Let's hope!

There was an update recently made to ArcGIS Online where users can now log in via their Facebook or Google+ accounts. This may make it easier for people to see maps. What's new—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS Also, if your data is shared via a Map Service through ArcGIS for Server, I believe you can secure that one service and put a password on it. Some info here: ArcGIS Server web services—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS I haven't done this myself so I am not exactly sure how to do this. But, with this secure service, anyone with the password can view the map and they do not need an esri account.

Aside from getting a server set up and such, are there any good recommendations on how to best handle the data in terms of databases? I just read this blog (from Walter Simonazzi) on SDE vs Multiuser Geodatabases: Is ArcSDE dead? which has been helpful in defining certain things. But I am unsure on how to get this sort of thing started (and I don't think we have the infrastructure just yet unless I can use my company's website's MySQL database).

Wow, the rabbit hole certainly gets deeper! I really appreciate the advice. I have a feeling that my company will have a hard time justifying these types of purchases but it's good to know what likely needs to be done. Does everyone have an EDN license who manages ArcGIS for Server? I wonder if I should call my local esri person to get an idea on how to best manager what we currently have and what we 'should' have.

It does not look like it is possible to do this with ArcGIS Online web maps. You would have to configure this on the publishing end in ArcMap to concatenate your values or some other creative way of squeezing multiple attributes into one field. Your options for symbolizing in ArcGIS Online are: 1 text field 1 text field and 1 numeric field 1 to 5 numeric fields

I have never been on the back end of setting up a server for the first time and now I find myself working for a small company that is just getting its feet wet with GIS. The issue is, I am not sure where to start and not sure if I should consult the GeoNet or my local Esri rep. There seems to be so many options out there and I want to make sure I get things setup right initially. We do not have a real dedicated server machine in our building so we are looking at options on this (like do we outsource and use something like Amazon web services, do we dedicate a local machine in-house, etc.). My company has a standard ArcGIS Server Workgroup license (with two cores, whatever that means). We will be wanting to host data on our ArcGIS Online site and will want to be able to update that data regularly. We will also want some secure services and things like that (and we are in the US). We do not have a back-end relational database but I believe we are working towards getting one on PostgreSQL, from what I understand. Our website has a MySQL component that could work, I suppose, but then again, I am unfamiliar with configuring these types of relational databases (though, I would love to learn). Ok GeoNet, the question is, where is the best place for me to start? How should I best approach this to get the most value and functionality? Are options like ArcGIS for Portal or an SDE likely possibilities for me? Thanks!

When I clicked the download button, it started to download the package. It was around 500+ Megabytes and I did not need it so I stopped the download. But it appeared to work! I am not sure why it isn't working for you. I am using Google Chrome as my web browser.

There may be a button in the settings for "Synchronize Map Locations". (though I know this is available for the 'tabbed map', not sure about the map journal). I would refer to Owen Evans
