Hello @faronyoung68 ,   In Field Maps, you can turn off location history and just share the last know location of the user with an app link or an MDM setting, called locationSharingShareLKLOnly.  You can find documentation for these settings in Deploy your map.   As you found, modifying the retention period for location data is not supported in ArcGIS Online (this is an option in ArcGIS Enterprise).  However, storage credits are not changed for location data stored in the location sharing feature service.

@MJhendo , sorry to hear that you are running into problems. Just like with ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Online supports having a single web map that is shared and used by many mobile users at the same time.  This works both offline and while connected.  Mobile users do not have to own the web map to be able to take data offline, edit and sync. >all other users who attempt to use either managed offline areas or their own map areas created in the app, even with users having the appropriate user roles to properly edit this data and data being shared correctly with other users. Are these users able to edit the data while connected, in Field Maps and or the Map Viewer?   I would suggest reaching out to Esri Support if you have not done so already. ... View more

Hello @DaveGregovich1  Our Esri vector tile basemap have a set of resource (fonts, etc) that are required regardless of the size of the area that you take offline. Creating your own lightweight basemap as @DavidSolari suggested is a good options, as is using a raster tiled base map (as suggested by @HannesVogel). One good option to use would be the Imagery basemap.  When you take it offline you can adjust the level of detail so it stays quite small.   Another option to try is to use a preplanned map area.  This way you can reduce the number of times you need to wait for the map area to generate.  You just need to make sure you remove the area off the device and redownload it.  If you are making schema changes to any of your layers you will need to recreate the offline area. As an example an area covering downtown Portland Oregon is about 1.2MB   ... View more

Hello @najsal  Please see responses below. "Can the track service be editable to remove inaccurate data." The data stored in the location sharing services cannot be made editable.  Once the track points are collected, they cannot be changed.  However, you could export the data, remove the inaccuracies and then store the data for the required retention period. "How long is the retention period of data for the layer service. ( can track data for an app be retained for at least  a year.)" Are you using using ArcGIS Online or Enterprise? From Enable location tracking: "If using ArcGIS Enterprise, configure the period of time you want to keep the tracks. By default, they are kept for 30 days. If using ArcGIS Online, tracks are kept for 30 days and the retention period can't be configured." If you are using ArcGIS Online and need to retain the data for longer than 30 days, you can export the data to preserve it. "Can a TrackView map/app  be configured to only show tracks for a certain app/map." I think what you might be looking for is track categories.  A category can be set for a specific map so it is written to the track points when they are collected.  Then in the consuming map, you can filter for the specific category.

This was added in the November 2022 release of Field Maps.   You can access the online version of the map by tapping the map card in the Online map section of the map areas list. You no longer need to provide online and offline versions of your map. ... View more

Hello @Amanda__Huber  In ArcGIS Online you are not able to delete track lines directly.  Track lines are maintained by the system. In ArcGIS Online you can only delete all tracks data for a user as outlined in this FAQ (Can I delete track points from the location tracking layer?).  This will delete all track points, track lines and last known location for specified users. ...

@LucasNeal the message you are seeing is just a warning message saying that your data has/support true curves, but Field Maps does not support editing true curves at this time.  As it is just a warning, you can still take this map and those layers offline and use them in Field Maps. If you would like to be able to edit the curves in Field Maps, which will densify them, then allow updates to true curves (allowTrueCurveUpdates : true) but dont "Only allow true curve updates by true curve clients" (onlyAllowTrueCurveUpdatesByTrueCurveClients : false). ...

@LucasNeal there are two properties of the layer, allowTrueCurveUpdates and onlyAllowTrueCurveUpdatesByTrueCurveClients, that you can see in the layer's JSON.  What are their values?  Can you send a screenshot of the error/warning that you are getting?
