ArcGIS Form Connector

ArcGIS Form Connector

After adding and authenticating an ArcGIS Connection, you can easily send form entry data to the ArcGIS API by configuring the ArcGIS form connector, as shown in this article.

Adding an ArcGIS Connector

Form Connectors can be added to push data to other systems in the Form Connector’s area of any Data Entry Form. Navigate the side menu to Design Tools > Forms and hover over the Connect option of the desired form.

Or when viewing the Forms in the designer. 

Once on the Form Connectors page:

  • Click the Add Connector button on the top right to bring up a list of connectors.
  • Then click on the ArcGIS option.

Configuring

After adding the form connector, the following configuration options are available.

  1. Feature Layer URL
    This is where you enter the feature layer URL to which you would like to send data. This article provides instructions on how to find your feature layer URL.
  2. Action

    This is where you specify the action you would like to perform on the feature layer specified. Options are: Add Feature, Delete Feature, or Update Feature.

Getting the Feature Layer URL

On the ArcGIS portal, access your content and add a new item (feature layer). When the feature layer is added, click on the “Layers” section, as shown in the screenshot below:

When the layer details page loads, look on the right-hand side for the URL property. The URL specified here is the URL you need to use as your Feature Layer URL in order to configure the form connector, as shown in the screenshot below.

To complete the configuration of your form connector, paste the feature layer URL from the ArcGIS portal into our platform and click the Get Fields button.

All the data columns associated with your feature layer will be imported, and you will be able to map the ArcGIS data to a field on your form.

When your form connector successfully pulls in the fields from the ArcGIS layer, you can specify which field to use to specify a single X and Y coordinate.
