Introducing the ArcGIS Notebooks assistant (beta) in ArcGIS Online \u2013 February 2026.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re excited to announce the beta release of the ArcGIS Notebooks\u00a0assistant\u00a0as part of the February 2026 update to ArcGIS Online. This new AI-powered assistant is available to all ArcGIS Online users who work with ArcGIS Notebooks,\u00a0depending on organizational settings (see Getting started for more details).<\/p>\n

The ArcGIS Notebooks\u00a0assistant\u00a0is designed to help you move from\u00a0idea\u00a0to implementation faster. Whether\u00a0you\u2019re\u00a0prototyping an analysis, automating administrative tasks, or refining an existing workflow, the assistant helps you craft\u00a0Python\u00a0code\u00a0and\u00a0workflows more efficiently. By bringing large language model\u2013based coding\u00a0assistance\u00a0directly into the notebook experience, it reduces the time spent\u00a0searching\u00a0documentation, debugging syntax, or\u00a0just getting started\u2014so you can focus more on solving problems and delivering results.<\/p>\n

Capabilities of the Assistant<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The ArcGIS Notebooks\u00a0assistant\u00a0supports several core scenarios that are common in day-to-day notebook workflows.<\/p>\n

First, the assistant can explain\u00a0existing\u00a0code. If you inherit a notebook from a colleague, find a code snippet on the internet,\u00a0or revisit code you wrote months ago, you can ask the assistant to walk through what a code snippet is doing, line by line. This can significantly reduce the time it takes to understand complex logic or unfamiliar patterns.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":2956636,"id":2956636,"title":"notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result","filename":"notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result.png","filesize":215971,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/announcements\/introducing-the-arcgis-notebooks-assistant-beta\/notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result","alt":"Text explains what the code snippet does","author":"358272","description":"","caption":"","name":"notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":2951250,"date":"2026-02-18 16:29:14","modified":"2026-02-18 16:29:40","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":1920,"height":912,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result.png","medium-width":464,"medium-height":220,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":365,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result.png","large-width":1920,"large-height":912,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result-1536x730.png","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":730,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result.png","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":912,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result-826x392.png","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":392,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_explain_1_result.png","wide_image-width":1920,"wide_image-height":912}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Second, the assistant can generate code.

Getting started with the assistant<\/strong><\/h3>\n

To take advantage of the Notebooks assistant, as with all ArcGIS AI assistants, ensure that your organizational settings have both beta features and\u00a0AI assistants<\/span><\/a>\u00a0enabled.\u00a0\u00a0Users can access ArcGIS Notebooks with Creator or higher user\u00a0types,\u00a0and\u00a0use its assistant if their\u00a0role has the AI assistant privilege enabled.<\/p>\n

To get started, access the assistant directly from the Code Snippets pane within the ArcGIS Notebooks interface. From there, you can open the assistant alongside your notebook and begin asking questions or providing prompts related to your work.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":2956642,"id":2956642,"title":"notebooks_assistant_initial_screen","filename":"notebooks_assistant_initial_screen.png","filesize":100463,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_initial_screen.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/announcements\/introducing-the-arcgis-notebooks-assistant-beta\/notebooks_assistant_initial_screen","alt":"Image shows the initial screen and how to locate the AI assistant in ArcGIS Notebooks.","author":"358272","description":"","caption":"","name":"notebooks_assistant_initial_screen","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":2951250,"date":"2026-02-18 16:35:53","modified":"2026-02-18 16:36:35","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":1920,"height":912,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_initial_screen-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_initial_screen.png","medium-width":464,"medium-height":220,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_initial_screen.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":365,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_initial_screen.png","large-width":1920,"large-height":912,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_initial_screen-1536x730.png","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":730,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_initial_screen.png","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":912,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_initial_screen-826x392.png","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":392,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/02\/notebooks_assistant_initial_screen.png","wide_image-width":1920,"wide_image-height":912}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

The first time you access the assistant in a browser session,\u00a0you\u2019ll\u00a0see a consent acknowledgement screen. This screen provides\u00a0important information\u00a0about using AI-powered\u00a0assistance\u00a0and ensures you understand how the feature works before\u00a0proceeding. Once acknowledged, the prompt dialogue box becomes\u00a0available\u00a0and\u00a0you\u2019re\u00a0ready to get started.<\/p>\n

As you experiment with prompts and responses, you can also provide feedback without leaving the app with a simple thumbs up or thumbs down.\u00a0 This information, along with your prompt, will be used to improve the assistant in future releases.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0use of the ArcGIS Notebooks\u00a0assistant\u00a0(beta)\u00a0does not consume ArcGIS Online credits.\u00a0\u00a0Depending on the workflow, results from the assistant may include steps that consume credits if the code is run, such as geocoding, routing, and analysis tools.<\/p>\n
