Hi Guys Hope you all are doing well. I have a query here where I am trying to figure out where in the standard Add Data widget this might be customizable. The problem: The add data widget uses the ESRI geocoder to geocode addresses. The problem we are having is that we need the widget to be using our geocoder. The reason: We upload excel files with address and want to to get the coordinates on the map, but for some reason the standard geocoder add the data to the street closest to the coordinate and not the exact point. The widget also does not allow to change the geocoder to our custom inhouse one. Any ideas on how to change that perhaps in the widget itself? Maybe someone else have had to do this and might be a quick change in the code? Regards, Brett

Thanks for this, will start exploring this option, as this would be my other option on how to integrate the 2 systems and know which user/role is currently on the map. As always thanks a lot for the information.

Hi Robert The only possible way I thought to overcome this is maybe do it in a widget. Basically I want to have a user click a feature on the map and then get the user that is logged in and its role assigned? I have been playing around the identityManager but have not had much luck, is this the right route or is it possible to get the info through a widget when the user clicks the map? thanks again for all your help and responses.

Hi Robert Not exactly. So basically, a client of mine has their own ArcGIS online portal at ****.maps.arcgis.com. I have added a link there to another system that I wrote using vb.net that I host on my own server. The problem I am facing is that users in this organization has different roles, now depending on these roles coming from ArcGIS online they get to access certain parts in my system. So what I need to do is, as soon as they use the link provided in their online portal I need to somehow grab the user that is logged in as well as the role assigned to him. It comes down to linking my system which has nothing to do with ArcGIS online, to be able to get users + roles when landing on my home page. My thoughts was that as soon as someone logs into their ArcGIS Online, it has to store the token somehow in the browser or somewhere for external systems to be able to get that type of info? I hope this makes sense

Hi Robert I do understand the code given above, to pass a JS variable over and store it in a hidden field to retrieve from the server side. My question is however, if a user is logged in on the AGOL and uses the link provided in there to my system, how would I grab the person who is logged in username and the role assigned to him in his organization? Thanks Brett

HI Robert Yet again thanks for your reply and input! Will go test this and come back but it sounds really good, I knew it had to be something simple and accessible. Brett

Retrieve logged in user + role from AGOL · ‎05-07-2018

HI Guys Hope you are well. I am wondering of someone could assist me or point me into a direction, perhaps someone has done this before but I have not gotten much info on it just yet. I have a 3rd party system I wrote using .net. This system is has a link in the organizational online portal to it and on the feature class as well. Although I need to grab the user that has logged in via their online portal in .NET. Any ideas how to access the token from the server side as the user lands in the 3rd party system? Using vb.net in the backend. Also by grabbing the token, I see in JS it gives the user + role but like I said I need to grab it on the system load and store it perhaps somewhere? Any ideas would be helpful Thanks Brett

Hi Guys I am trying to use the screening widget out the box, but wanting to change the scale it zooms to after the user has searched for the feature. I got a buffer of around 5km around the POI, but the scale after zoomed stays at 1:50000. I would like this scale to rather change to 1:10000 after zoomed but cant seem to find the point in the code of the widget on where to change this? Any help/guidance would be appreciated. Thanks in advance Brett

Hi Guys Could someone please assist me, I used WAB v2.1 - 2.4 and my widgets was working fine. When the map started, the code inside the widget run. This was as simple as adding to the config file: "openAtStart" : true For some reason in v2.7 this is not the case and it seems the config files has changed. Could someone please guide me on which config and what do I need to change in this version so that my widget will run when the map loads? Thanks in advance. Brett

HI Robert, So I have got it working in the way which I originally wanted to. For my marker I was using this page on the API: https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/3/jsapi/simplemarkersymbol-amd.html SimpleMarkerSymbol | API Reference | ArcGIS API for JavaScript 3.18 After including it like this from the legacy example it actually became a JS object and I could start using and adding to the map. marker = new esri.symbol.SimpleMarkerSymbol(); I know you are not encouraging the way I am using the API (outside of widgets) but perhaps if you ever get a gap in your schedule I can perhaps show you the system and how I am coding it. I am sure you could perhaps give me extremely valuable pointers and tips on how to rather improve my coding and where/what I should rather have done instead of how I have done it. Thanks as always for you're rapid responses and valuable input. Please do let me know if you would like to see the system and code. Brett Kruger
