The DataTime fields are visible in a popup however currently in the Web Scene it isn't possible to use the DateTime fields in f.e. a query unlike the map viewer. To be able to query that kind of data you need to move/copy it into a text or number field. https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/create-maps/configure-layers-in-scene.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_31D2... 

This is needed for Time based selections/visualizations and it's probably the first step before a  Time Slider in 3D Web Scene  integration would be possible.

Hi,

We are currently working on time enabled scene layers and this is in the near-term roadmap for ArcGIS Pro and authoring scene layers.

thanks,

@Andrew--Johnson thanks for the update. It's a bit confusing for me as this is Arcgis pro road map and an Arcgis Online issue but ok 🙂 Does that mean that the time slider is going to be implemented as well? 

Thank you in advance!

@BartFranken  The scene layer package needs to have a DateTime field that can be read by the TimeSlider so that is why it's more of an ArcGIS Pro issue as it's authored from ArcGIS Pro. As far as the time slider is concerned i'll check with the Scene Viewer team and get back to you 🙂

thanks,

Andrew
