On March 1, Esri hosted a webinar covering how to optimize public information for any device using the Public Information app template in ArcGIS Experience Builder. In this post you will find the recording, resources, and Q&A.<\/span><\/p>\n

Q&A<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Q: Do you know if the RADAR layer you displayed in the webinar is available to ArcGIS Online subscribers? I have had trouble finding a radar layer that displays areas of ice, snow, and rain.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

A: <\/span>T<\/span>hey’re all in the Living Atlas. You can browse the Living Atlas under the Environment tab<\/a>, then check the Earth Observations box.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: Can you use the map in Experience Builder and get det location set there to be used in a Survey123 form? So that we can have a 3D map in experience and get the det answer and flexibility we have in Survey123.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

A. You can do so with 2D maps, but not 3D. See the <\/span>Using Experience Builder and Survey123 to pass attributes and geometry from one layer to another<\/span><\/a> blog. Support for 3D maps is currently in the backlog.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Q: Is there an easy way to take what you make in Experience Builder and turn it into a native app for your organization?\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

A: <\/span>This is not supported. Experience Builder enables you to optimize public information <\/span>on mobile browsers by configuring them differently from those on desktop browsers.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Q: It looks like Web AppBuilder will be deprecated and we’ll need to migrate to Experience Builder. Can you confirm this, provide a timeline, and explain why you didn’t upgrade Web AppBuilder instead of creating a whole new product? Is Experience Builder an updated version of Web AppBuilder?\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

A: <\/span>For the online edition, Experience Builder will not replace or obsolete Web AppBuilder. Both builders will be running and maintained in parallel. Web AppBuilder will continue to be available.<\/p>\n

For the enterprise edition, Web AppBuilder follows the Enterprise product life cycle and for the developer edition, Web AppBuilder follows the ArcGIS API for JavaScript 3.x product life cycle.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Experience Builder is planned to reach most of the functional parity of Web AppBuilder through incremental releases, starting with the core and popular widgets. <\/span>See the <\/span>functionality parity for both products and the migration plan.<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As Experience Builder is built on the latest web technology with different development paradigms from Web AppBuilder, it becomes a new product with the following key features that are not available in Web AppBuilder:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
