Hi, I am working on building a map for ArcGIS Online to be used with Collector for ArcGIS . I would like to somehow attach record drawing pdfs to points so these pdfs can be accessed with Collector from an offline source(micro SD in a tablet). Is there a way I can link these pdfs. I have looked into Pop-Ups and URLs. I was able to get the URL link to work when the pdfs are stored on Dropbox. Is it possible to have these pdfs stored locally and be accessible with Collector for ArcGIS?

Thanks, 

Drew

Hi Drew,

This would probably work if you configured the url paths to the correct location on your device. As long as the url is valid, it should work, but the challenge would be finding a consistent url on multiple devices if the web map is going to be used on multiple devices.
