ArcGIS<\/span> Hub assistant <\/span>(beta) search agent <\/span>available for anonymous users<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

Site administrators can now enable anonymous user access to the ArcGIS Hub assistant (beta) search agent. Powered by artificial intelligence (AI), this tool allows site users to search content catalogs in natural language. When a site administrator activates anonymous access to the ArcGIS Hub assistant (beta) search agent, users can access the search tool without logging into ArcGIS Online.<\/span><\/p>\n

The ArcGIS Hub assistant (beta) search agent is available to site administrators with an ArcGIS Hub Premium subscription. Navigate to a site\u2019s workspace to configure the agent, and toggle its access. Site administrators can now also provide their site search agent with a unique name.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":2972097,"id":2972097,"title":"hub-public-anonymous-access","filename":"hub-public-anonymous-access.gif","filesize":188949,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/hub-public-anonymous-access.gif","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-hub\/announcements\/whats-new-in-arcgis-hub-june-2026\/hub-public-anonymous-access","alt":"Enable anonymous access to the Hub assistant (beta)","author":"430633","description":"","caption":"Enable anonymous access to the ArcGIS Hub assistant (beta) search agent.","name":"hub-public-anonymous-access","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":2971717,"date":"2026-06-23 16:34:03","modified":"2026-06-23 16:38:29","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/gif","type":"image","subtype":"gif","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":768,"height":576,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/hub-public-anonymous-access-213x200.gif","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/hub-public-anonymous-access.gif","medium-width":348,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/hub-public-anonymous-access.gif","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":576,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/hub-public-anonymous-access.gif","large-width":768,"large-height":576,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/hub-public-anonymous-access.gif","1536x1536-width":768,"1536x1536-height":576,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/hub-public-anonymous-access.gif","2048x2048-width":768,"2048x2048-height":576,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/hub-public-anonymous-access-620x465.gif","card_image-width":620,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/06\/hub-public-anonymous-access.gif","wide_image-width":768,"wide_image-height":576}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

You can also now include a subaddress\u2014such as a room, floor, or building\u2014to an event location. This allows you to specify location details for your in-person events.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additional enhancements include a reconfiguration of the event view to show all key event information, and an update to the event gallery calendar appearance. The calendar layout option now displays a calendar without an event grid. This allows you to pair a calendar with other event layout options, granting you more customization.<\/span><\/p>\n

Along with these enhancements, classic events have now been retired and can no longer be edited. If edits are required to a classic event card, you must create a new event card and delete the old one.<\/span><\/p>\n
