ArcGIS QuickCapture continues to evolve with powerful enhancements that streamline field data collection and improve user experience across mobile and web platforms. The June 2025 release (v1.23.7) introduces several key updates that address user feedback, enhance performance, and expand customization options.
Let’s take a look at what’s new:
Dynamic Choice List Filtering
In ArcGIS QuickCapture, a dynamic choice list enables the population of dropdown options in your project based on data from a feature layer. This functionality allows the choices to update in real time according to the data within your GIS, making it ideal for scenarios such as selecting assets, locations, or categories that are frequently updated.
With this release, a query builder has been incorporated into the filter for dynamic choice lists. This enhancement simplifies the process of creating filters on your data and controlling which records appear in the list. It enables customization of the user experience based on specific criteria, such as filtering by date, username, or other attributes. This feature ensures that field teams are presented only with the most relevant options when capturing data.
A new choice list preview is now available when working with Dynamic Choice Lists. This update provides visual feedback so users can see which choices will be selected from the feature layer.
Group Management Made Easier
Button groups in QuickCapture allow you to organize related capture buttons into logical sections, making it easier for users to navigate and interact with the app, especially when working with large or complex projects. Grouping buttons improves clarity, reduces visual clutter, and helps field users quickly find the right action for the task at hand.
With this release, you can now merge multiple selected groups into a single group. This enhancement simplifies project layout management and gives you more flexibility when reorganizing or refining your project design.
New Button Appearance: Extra Round
QuickCapture offers a variety of button styles to help you design intuitive and visually engaging data collection interfaces. From square to rounded and icon-only buttons, these options let you tailor the look and feel of your project to suit the needs of your field users. The right button style can improve usability, reduce errors, and make the app more approachable, especially in fast-paced or high-stress environments.
With this release, we’re introducing a new “extra round” button appearance. This style adds a softer, more modern aesthetic to your project layout and can help visually distinguish key actions or categories. It’s a small change that can make a big difference in how your project feels to the people using it every day.
Other Enhancements and Fixes:
External Browser Sign-In
You can now enable an external browser for signing in to the mobile app. This provides greater flexibility and compatibility with enterprise authentication systems, especially in environments with strict security policies.
Track Upload Interval Customization
The track upload interval can now be set to as low as 60 seconds, enabling more frequent location updates for high-precision tracking scenarios.
Webhook Payload Fix for Attachments
An issue has been resolved where the parentObjectId value for attachments was not returned in webhook payloads when sync was enabled on the feature layer. This fix ensures more reliable integration with automation workflows and third-party systems.
Project Creation Bug Fix
We’ve fixed a bug that caused the warning “You do not have access to the layers in the project map” to appear unexpectedly when creating a project from an existing layer. This fix ensures a smoother project setup experience.
