@JohnCodd2 , I don't understand your sentence " o I do not have the configured widgets stored locally "...   I am not an expert, but I have some experience, so I will tell my thoughts: I have not tried to find an easy way to change themes and have the widgets arrange themselves automatically. What I did instead - I examined the themes, and I have chosen the "Launchpad Theme" which most suited me, and I am using it for a long time. The widgets arrangement is done in some places -   In the config, either manually or interactively using the WAB "Configure App" pencil icon to enter edit mode, and select widgets and arrnge them. I did it once interactively, then I usually modife the config manually. I can there reorder them and I can put widgets on screen anywhere I want.   The config file has the arrangement details for each widget according to the selected theme. The selected theme appears at the top of the config. Please note that the widgets are arranged in "classes" in the config, where the classes names are according to the theme.  What I suggest to you, is to prepare different config files, each for a different theme. Then for each theme, use its config. I am afraid that you can't switch between themes when the web app is running.   Each Theme has its folder in the top "themes" folder, where it has its special code for arranging the widgets.    Pay attention that for widgets on the screen - only one can be opened at the same time.   The setup of each widget is done in  config.json in the widget folder, and in a folder per widget in the top "configs" folder, where the "config" folder have precedence, but this is not connected to the widgets arrangement on screen. ...

@Rayn , Thank you! Indeed setting "appId" in config to the portal's application id, solved the problem fo JS API 4.18. For higher js API versions, "appId" can remain empty. I did it using WAB Developer Edition version 2.22 to create my web app, while changing in env.js to use the JS API version 4.18 Only pay attention - When WAB version 2.22 creates the zip, in empties the config "appId" !! You must "refill" it again after unziping !! We still use JS Api 4.18, since in newer versions,  SAML login is not working in Web AppBuilder Developer Edition v2.20 and above after deploying the application on IIS.  (This has been reported as Bug Number: BUG-000142159). ...

@Rayn , As I wrote here in another reply, I have the same problem (JS API 4.18 on WAB app on enterprise 10.9.1 enters endless login loop). As you wrote that you addressed  ESRI tech support - is there a solution that you can tell me about? Thank you, Michael ... View more

@WeiYing1 , Same endless loop occurs also to us. I use Web AppBuilder Developer Edition 2.22 to develop web apps with custom widgets, and as I use ESRI JS API 4.18, I get endless login loop. Explanation: I am currently limited to ESRI js API 4.18, since SAML login is not working in Web AppBuilder Developer Edition  with JS API versions newer than 4.18 [this issue has ESRI Bug Number  BUG-000142159]. We upgraded the neterprise server to 10.9.1, and from that moment, JS API 4.18 enter endless login loops (newer API versions work ok, but as I explained above, we must currently use JS API 4.18) I will appreciate a solution.     ...

@Kishore , I understand that I can't "bypass" the need to use python and arcpy. However, I am just starting to learn how to do it. Can you please show me a very simple solution how to do it in arcpy+python for a very simple tool: "Buffer"? I mean how to create a service in 2D that will enable to insert the URL to the ESRI Web AppBuilder 2D widget "geoprocessing" so that I will be able to operate it to create a buffer around some polygons layer in my WAB web app? I need that when I am in my web app, the "input" will enable me to select the proper polygons layer in my web app. I'll explain a little more: When I right click on the "Buffer" tool to get its python code, I see: arcpy.analysis.Buffer("poly01", r"C:\_ArcGisPro\proj\geoProcessing\01\01.gdb\poly01_Buffer", "2 Kilometers", "FULL", "ROUND", "ALL", None, "PLANAR") Now, I need thet the service will have a "dynamic" input - i.e. that the the input will NOT be "hardcoded" to the layers that were in the ArcGIS Pro at the time I ran to Buffer tool. When I created service from the Buffer tool, then when I activated the service in the 2D "geoprocessing" widget, it worked on the layers that were in the ArcGIS Pro... but I want it to work on new layers that will be in the web app.   With appreciation, Michael     ...

@Kishore , In addition to what I just wrote, it seems you know how to create the service, so maybe you can describe, step by step, how to publish the correct  "Cad to Geodatabase" service. By "correct" I mean that it should have an API to enter input file. Should we create it using "ArcGIS Pro" desktop? I am WAB Custom Widgets programmer, so I am less familiar with ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Server (portal). I assume there has been a mistake here in creating the   "Cad to Geodatabase" service task.
