This release focuses on improvements to a number of widgets based on feedback we heard from you during the User Conference this summer.<\/p>\n

Group Filter<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some of you want to perform dynamic filtering. The Group Filter widget now allows you to define multiple filtering values in a group or across groups using a URL parameter. For example, you can filter two states from the State group and capital cities from the City group automatically when you open the widget. The URL format will look similar to the following:<\/p>\n

https:\/\/<your portal url>\/apps\/webappviewer\/index.html?id=<itemid>&groupfilter={“State group”:[“Alabama”, “Ohio”], \u201cCity group\u201d:[\u201cY\u201d]}<\/strong><\/p>\n

The following screenshots show the difference with and without the URL. No more clicking around.<\/p>\n

Without the URL parameter:<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":624402,"id":624402,"title":"no URl para","filename":"no-URl-para-1.png","filesize":33642,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/10\/no-URl-para-1.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/web-appbuilder\/announcements\/whats-new-in-web-appbuilder-october-2019\/no-url-para-2","alt":"Without the URL parameter","author":"7611","description":"","caption":"","name":"no-url-para-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":624332,"date":"2019-10-03 00:31:42","modified":"2019-10-03 00:35:40","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":557,"height":297,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/10\/no-URl-para-1-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/10\/no-URl-para-1.png","medium-width":464,"medium-height":247,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/10\/no-URl-para-1.png","medium_large-width":557,"medium_large-height":297,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/10\/no-URl-para-1.png","large-width":557,"large-height":297,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/10\/no-URl-para-1.png","1536x1536-width":557,"1536x1536-height":297,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/10\/no-URl-para-1.png","2048x2048-width":557,"2048x2048-height":297,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/10\/no-URl-para-1.png","card_image-width":557,"card_image-height":297,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/10\/no-URl-para-1.png","wide_image-width":557,"wide_image-height":297}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

If an attribute field has coded domain values, use the coded domain values directly rather than the labels in the URL. In this case, the Owned By field has coded domain values of 1 and 2. 1 is labeled as \u201cOur Agency\u201d, and 2 is \u201cPrivate\u201d.

Near Me<\/strong><\/p>\n

A shipping company has been using the Near Me widget to see the number of undelivered packages within a certain distance from a distribution center. When doing a detailed analysis, the distances from a distribution center that need to be analyzed can vary greatly and are not always in mile increments.
