App capabilities

The following list includes some key settings and capabilities that you can configure for this app:

• Cover page—Introduces the purpose of the app.
• Layer list—Displays a list of layers with icons to turn visibility off and on in the map. You can choose which layers to include in the tool at runtime. This setting also allows opening a layer's attribute table, which includes an option for users to export records as a CSV file.
• Bookmarks—Zooms and pans the map to a collection of preset extents that are saved in the map.
• Pop-up—Presents pop-up content in the side panel of the app rather than in the map.
• Edit tools—Provides options to add and update features in editable layers. Users can turn on snapping for more efficient and precise editing.
• Utility network trace—Traces how resources flow through a utility network. This tool requires that the web map include a utility network service and named trace configurations (supported at ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 and later).
• Details—Shows the description content from the source map's item details in the side panel of the app.
• Filter—Filters data in the map based on predefined options.
• Basemap gallery—Displays a collection of basemaps in the side panel that users can add to the map. You can use the default set or choose a group that contains the basemaps to offer in the app.
• Enable hover pop-up—Provides users quick access to attribute information that appears when hovering over a feature in the map.
• Measurement tools—Provides tools to measure distance and area in the map and find and convert coordinates.
• Disable scroll—Prevents the map from zooming when app users scroll.
• Navigation boundary—Keeps the area in the map in focus by using a navigation boundary or disabling the ability to scroll.
• Basemap toggle—Changes the look of the map by switching to a different basemap.
• Screenshot—Captures an image of the map to export.
• Export to PDF—Prints or exports a PDF of the map and applicable feature pop-ups.

All Instant Apps templates include settings for a Home button and zoom controls, a legend, and the ability to search the map or data.
