You can create a feature layer view and set a definition for 1) fields to be edited and 2) area of interest. The documentation confirms that the purpose of views and definitions is to control access to who can view and edit certain features. This is a great way to separate the different areas between field crews. But the catch is that ESRI considers that editing, in this sense, refers to existing features, rather than adding new features - it doesn't seem to limit the addition of features. So, you have 1) created a layer view and defined an AOI of interest, 2) deployed an application with the new layer view to "limit" the editing area in relation to your needs, 3) you add a new feature outside of the AOI and 4) you might expect and error. Nope. You can still add the feature and the feature service will be updated, when you refresh our map, the new feature will not be drawn. My idea and suggestion are: honor the AOI when editing features, new or existing, and return an error or warning to the user (if it can be customized even better!)

I have a feature service with the conference rooms for our building. I have created an application with web appbuilder with this feature service. The users are able to search the conference rooms by name or other attributes. The conference rooms are digitized as polygons have the same names than in the Calendar in Outlook. We have configured the conference room as resources already in Outlook. My goal is to be able to schedule/book a conference room directly from the web app (interacting with the feature of course). Is there a way to do this? I was wondering if ArcGIS Indoors has this capability and if so, if it can be implemented in the Portal/AGOL environment. Thank you

We use Admin Tools for ArcGIS Online for additional functionality. GeoJobe also has tools for Portal. It would be nice to have one application that supports both. They both are licensed products, GeoJob is about $1500/yr depending on the number of Portal servers you monitor, how does it compare with ESRI ArcGIS Monitor?

One of the key reasons for this tool, is to keep the shape related calculations consistent across interfaces. Even publishing a feature with the correct projection and units, the area or length information is going to be different if you use an Arcade function, the measurement tool, or the standard display in Collector. And then, you can not modify the information when creating dashboards. I worked with ESRI support, and the only solution is this tool.

Thank you Dan. Would you have a copy of the data model or a GDB you could share? I am trying to compare the BISDN data model with the new Indoor one. Thanks

Dan, do you have a sample GDB and/or data model for Indoors? I can not find it, except if you install and licensed the product, and it looks like I do not have access to it. Thanks
