Hello Colin, Are you using ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise? If you are using ArcGIS Enterprise have you followed the steps here: Use an Esri basemap offline? ... View more

Hello @JohnHu, "Reload Map" should always be available for the current map. It does not show up for other maps that are not in the "Current" section.  Also, if the current map has offline areas or is an MMPK the option is not shown.   If your users still do not see "Reload Map" can you post a screenshot and details of the device and map?     ...

Hello, Answers to your questions below. Also a couple of additional help docs to look at if you have not seen them: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/administer/configure-location-tracking.htm https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/administer/create-track-views.htm   1. “our administrator has to turn on tracking as a feature for our organization” Correct, an admin needs to turn on location sharing for your organization and this does not turn on location sharing for any user. It just allows farther configuration to occur. 2. Configuration of what organization users can view track data is configured in TrackViewer where track views are created (https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/administer/create-track-views.htm). Only users with a role that has the view tracks privilege can view other user’s tracks. 3. “Then he has to assign licenses to the users who want to use tracking.” If the users are of type mobile worker they will be able to use location sharing, otherwise the user type extension will need to be assigned to each user that you want to be able to share their location. 4. “He has to go into the field maps designer and turn on location sharing in each individual app that needs tracking.” Configuration of an individual map to require location sharing be turned on (like you show in your screen shot) is an optional step. 5. “In field maps designer can he select a checkbox to allow users to see each others tracks for the same field app. If he doesn't check this box then they will only see their own tracks.” Configuring which users can view other’s tracks is done in TrackViewer with track views (https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/administer/create-track-views.htm). By default, in Field Maps a user can only view their own tracks. You would need to author a map, make sure they had the correct role/privilege and have a track view to be able to have them view other user’s tracks. 6. “Users who do not have the location sharing extension assigned to them will not be able to see the field app anymore if location sharing is turned on?” Users who do not have the location sharing extension will be able to use Field Maps without any issues, they just wont be able to share their location. 7. “The toggle for location sharing is turned off by default in field maps and is not tracking the worker until the click the toggle. The worker has to select the toggle to turn on tracking, and select a tracking duration of 4,8,12 hours or until switched off. Even if they close the app on their device it will continue to track the worker until they click the toggle to turn off tracking on this screen or on the gps screen, or when the time expires.” Correct, users need to turn on location sharing in the app and it will continue to share their location when the app is in the background 8. “Is the tracking data stored separately for each field map app, or is all of the tracking data stored in one place that is accessible to all users who have the track viewer enabled?” Tracks data is stored in one service per organization. Who has access to view this data is configured in TrackViewer with track views and by assigning roles that has the view tracks privilege can view other user’s tracks.   I hope this helps with our questions. ...

@AaronKoelker yes, you should be able to search by type, 'Map Area' and delete the item.  This delete will cascade and delete the related packages (tpks, vtpks and or mobile geodatabases) for the area. Something like: from arcgis.gis import GIS gis = GIS("home") #checkout the Search doc for more query options #https://developers.arcgis.com/python/guide/accessing-and-creating-content/#about-search #https://developers.arcgis.com/python/api-reference/arcgis.gis.toc.html#arcgis.gis.ContentManager.search #https://support.esri.com/en-us/knowledge-base/how-to-find-specific-items-using-queries-in-the-arcgis-000024383 items = gis.content.search(query='owner:<SOME_USERNAME>', item_type='Map Area') for item in items: print(item) item.delete()   ...

Hello, at this time when you sync a map area it is just syncing operational layers (ie uploading changes to editable feature layers and downloading changes from feature layers).  The properties of the map itself, like bookmarks, are not updated.  Right now to get these changes on the mobile device you would need to redownload the map area. This is a feature we have looked at adding, but it is not currently planned for a release.  You could add an Idea or comments to an existing one like - Update complete webmap including form definitions during regular sync (and not only the data) to help us better understand what behavior you would expect (like would you expect/want other map properties to "sync" as well).     ...

Hello @AbiDhakal  I am interested to know more about your workflow and what you are trying to do. Today in Field Maps, Location sharing works if you are online or offline.  You do not have to add any "location sharing layer" to your maps, this just works as part of the app if you are licensed for location sharing.  You can view your tracks offline as well, either from the location sharing map card on the browse screen or on any map, including offline, from the layers tool. Our doc has a section called View tracks in the mobile app which has more information.   You are correct, "location sharing layers" do not support the sync, but this is not needed for location sharing to work offline.  You can collect tracks will offline and they will be uploaded to the server when you have a connection. Is there something missing from these current capabilities preventing your workflow?   Regards, Justin ... View more

Thanks for the additional info @LeviCecil . In your Gmail module for the subject I notice you make a reference back to the Watch Feature module output rather than the iterator.   I think you might want it to look like   As well you probably want to change the references in the Content section as well.   I dont know for sure if this is the cause of your issue, but it would be good to make the change and test again to see if the problem still happens ...

Hello @LeviCecil , sorry to hear that you are running into problems.  I looked at our tests and created a new scenario to give this a try and I dont see any issues so far.  Are you able to share more info about your scenario (screenshot or Exporting the blueprint if possible)?     Has the source layer changed at all?   Have you tried testing this in a new scenario with just a Watch Features module to see if it returns the correct data? ...

Hello @YS2388 , after a quick test it looks like the ArcGIS API for Python has a bug when there are tables in a map and you try to access the FormCollection.   Depending on what you are looking to accomplish you can iterate through the layers and tables in the map and access the form. wmItem = gis.content.get(itemID) # Fetch webmap item wm = WebMap(wmItem) # Create wm object for layer in wm.layers: if 'formInfo' in layer: print(layer.formInfo) for table in wm.tables: if 'formInfo' in table: print(table.formInfo) ...

@vaishalikulkarni00 there is no way to directly copy offline areas from one map to another at this time.  However, if you are familiar with Python, you can create map areas with the ArcGIS API for Python.  We have an example script that might help you get started - Create Offline Areas from Feature Layer.  This script uses feature geometries from a feature layer to create map areas, but could be modified to use map areas from one map as the input geometries/extents to recreate these areas for other maps. ...

@LearnThenShare Unfortunately, this issues has not been addressed.  We are working with the Maps SDK team to try to address it, but I do not have a timeline of when this will be fixed. ... View more

Support for geofences using buffered points and lines was released in the November 2022 release (and in Enterprise 11.1 earlier this year). https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/field-maps/field-mobility/whats-new-in-arcgis-field-maps-november-2022/ ... View more

Yes, the "Make an API Call" uses the connection to generate tokens that it needs. "the token in the payload from the survey submission expires. I guess this avoids all of this?" Yes, this would be different, as the "Make an API Call" is not relying on using the token from a previous response. ... View more
