Hello,

I am aiming to customise the FME Flow map interface by integrating a bespoke ArcGIS Online (AGOL) web map. The objective is to allow users to delineate an Area of Interest (AOI) and subsequently export relevant data directly from the application.

The intended FME Flow map should utilise a basic AGOL web map that includes basic features layers (e.g. polygon) which are intended to assist users in understanding the extends of the dataset.

I attempted to modify the basemap URL (Map Configuration) by embedding the public AGOL web map URL; however, this approach was unsuccessful.

Would you happen to have any guidance or suggestions on how to properly embed an AGOL web map into the FME Flow ‘Draw an Area of Interest’ interface?

 

 

Thanks

:)

For clarity, this is what I’m after...below an example of the FME Flow ‘Draw Area of Interest’ tool with a an AGOL public web map embedded. The blue polygon (e.g. feature hosted layer) shows the user the extend of the data available to download,

 

I have done research but can’t find an answer on how to ember AGOL webmaps onto the FLow Map configuration...


I am not really familiar with how AGOL generate web services, but geometry type parameters only accept public WMTS URL for the basemap. The URL must look like this : https://<service_url>/{z}/{x}/{y}

So you’ll have to create an WMTS URL from AGOL. The following link might be helpful :

Thanks ​@alexbiz for the info,

Unfortunately I think isn’t possible to embed AGOL or Portal WMTS into the Map Configuration. I have checked the link you suggested and also looked into the following: 

https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407744364941-Using-the-Geometry-Parameter#SetCustomBasemap

‘How to Set Up a Custom Basemap’

...but couldn’t get to work the {z}/{x}/{y} in my WMTS URL (which is public).

I think for the time being I will use the default basemap or potentially use one of the public tile layer services suggested by Safe.
