Edit tables (Map Viewer)

Note:

Some functionality is not yet supported in the new Map Viewer. (The new Map Viewer was previously available as a separate beta installation but is now available in the portal automatically.) See the compatibility guide for more information, and use Map Viewer Classic (formerly known as Map Viewer) as needed for unsupported workflows.

If the owner of an editable feature layer shares the layer with you, you can show the layer's table in Map Viewer and edit the attribute values.

Edit field values

You can edit values in a table layer and in the attribute table of a feature layer.

Follow these steps to edit values in a table in Map Viewer:

  1. Confirm that you are signed in and, if you want to save your changes, that you have privileges to create content.
  2. In Map Viewer, open the map containing the layer or add the layer directly.
  3. If you're editing table values for a feature layer, open the layer's table.
  4. Double-click in the cell that contains the value you want to edit and type a value, or, if the field is configured to provide a list of values, choose the correct value from the drop-down list. To delete the value when there is a list, choose empty.
  5. Press Enter to save your changes.

Add related photos and files

Feature and table layers can include related photos or other files as attachments. If the layer owner has enabled attachments on the layer and you have privileges to edit the layer, you can attach related photos and files to records in the table.

Note:

Adding attachments to table layers in Map Viewer is not supported at this time.

Add related files to a feature layer

Follow these steps to add related photos and files as attachments to a feature layer:

  1. Confirm that you are signed in and, if you want to save your changes, that you have privileges to create content.
  2. In Map Viewer, open the map containing the layer or add the layer directly.
  3. On the Settings (light) toolbar, click Edit Edit.
  4. In the Editor pane that appears on the map, click Edit feature.
  5. Select the feature on the map to which you want to attach a photo or other file.

    The fields and values for the selected feature appear in the pane.

  6. Scroll down to the Attachments section.
  7. Click Add and click Select file.
  8. Browse to the file you want to attach, and click Open.
