No, this blog is not about retirement planning or the weekly special at your local grocery store. However, understanding how to save a layer’s symbology and other settings in ArcGIS Online will save you time as you build your web GIS. While you can save both layers and maps, the controls are in different places and serve different purposes.<\/p>\n

Layers and Maps<\/h2>\n

Layers<\/a> are the building blocks of web GIS. Feature layers<\/a>, imagery layers<\/a>, tile layers<\/a>, and scene layers<\/a> are all examples of layers. Each layer is an item in ArcGIS Online and combines data with symbology, pop-up configuration, filters, and other properties.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1372582,"id":1372582,"title":"Featre_Layer_and_Webmap_Items","filename":"Featre_Layer_and_Webmap_Items.png","filesize":307052,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Featre_Layer_and_Webmap_Items.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/mapping\/two-ways-to-save\/featre_layer_and_webmap_items","alt":"","author":"8942","description":"","caption":"Each layer and web map is an item in ArcGIS Online.

To view layers, we add them to a web map<\/a>. Like layers, each web map is an item in ArcGIS Online. Web maps have a base map and may have one or more additional layers.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Web maps can store many of the same properties as layers including symbology, pop-up configurations, and filters. Understanding when you should save these properties to the layer or the web map is key to a successful web GIS implementation.<\/p>\n

Two Ways to Save<\/h2>\n

In the Map Viewer there are two places where you can save: in the Contents Tool bar on the left side of the map and under the options menu on layers that you own.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1759342,"id":1759342,"title":"Save_Web_Map","filename":"Save_Web_Map.png","filesize":310607,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Save_Web_Map.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/mapping\/save-and-save-even-more-with-the-map-viewer\/save_web_map","alt":"","author":"8942","description":"","caption":"To save the web map in the Map Viewer click \"Save and Open\" in the Contents Tool Bar on the left side of the map.","name":"save_web_map","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1759172,"date":"2022-11-03 21:55:21","modified":"2022-11-04 17:50:59","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":799,"height":693,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Save_Web_Map-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Save_Web_Map.png","medium-width":301,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Save_Web_Map.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":666,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Save_Web_Map.png","large-width":799,"large-height":693,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Save_Web_Map.png","1536x1536-width":799,"1536x1536-height":693,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Save_Web_Map.png","2048x2048-width":799,"2048x2048-height":693,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Save_Web_Map-536x465.png","card_image-width":536,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Save_Web_Map.png","wide_image-width":799,"wide_image-height":693}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

The Important Part<\/h2>\n

Save Map<\/em> on the left side of the Map Viewer saves any changes you have made to the web map. If you close and re-open the map you will see that your configuration has been saved.<\/p>\n

However, if you add the layer to a new map you will see that the settings you changed and saved in the map are not reflected in the layer.<\/p>\n

In this case every time the layer is added to a map the layer will need to be symbolized and the pop-up configured. As a best practice we recommend saving the layer\u2019s configuration to the layer itself by selecting More Options<\/em> (the three dots under each layer in the table of contents) and then Save Layer<\/em> at the bottom of the list. Note that this option will only appear if you are logged in as the layer\u2019s owner.<\/p>\n

Now when you add the layer to a map it is ready to use with no configuration needed for a neat, professional looking map.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1762612,"id":1762612,"title":"Save_Layer","filename":"Save_Layer.png","filesize":207005,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Save_Layer.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/mapping\/save-and-save-even-more-with-the-map-viewer\/save_layer","alt":"","author":"8942","description":"","caption":"To save a layer click the three dots for Options under the layer and then Save or Save As in the middle of the list.
