For many agencies and organizations, editing related records is integral to their workflows. Such workflows might include routine data collection for maintenance inspections or updating records with frequently changing attributes. Whatever the case is, related records can help you to better manage and understand your data.<\/p>\n<p>You may already be familiar with editing features in Map Viewer. With the June 2023 ArcGIS Online update, we&#8217;ve added the ability to edit related records as well. You can now add, update, and delete related records without leaving Map Viewer.<\/p>\n<p>Map Viewer supports editing related records for ArcGIS Online or Enterprise 11.2 hosted feature services that have a related table.* This means in order to get started, you&#8217;ll need a feature layer that has been published to ArcGIS Online with a related table.<\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>\n*Note: <span class=\"ui-provider clh cli c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t clj clk w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak\" dir=\"ltr\">As of October 2023, Feature-to-Feature relationships are additionally supported in ArcGIS Online.
