Register the Widgets with Web AppBuilder in Portal for ArcGIS

Prev Top Next More

This registration procedure applies to on-premises installations of VertiGIS Studio Reporting only.

After registering VertiGIS Studio Reporting, you may want to modify the widgets so they do not access any resources on the Internet. See Point the Widgets to Local Resources.

To register the Reporting widgets with Web AppBuilder in Portal for ArcGIS:

1.Sign in to your ArcGIS portal and open the Content page.

2.2D Widget: Add an item for the 2D widget:

a.Add an application: In My Content, click Add Item and select An application.

b.Set the Type to Application Extension (App Builder).

c.Specify the URL to the 2D widget's manifest.json file.

You can either use your on-premises copy of the manifest.json file or, if your portal has Internet access, the copy in the cloud:

On-Premises Manifest: Locate the manifest.json file in your VertiGIS Studio Reporting deployment and enter its URL in the Manifest URL box.

If you used the default IIS settings in the VertiGIS Studio Reporting Post Installer, then the URL will look something like this:

[http]://[host.mydomain.com]/vertigisstudio/reporting/wab/widgets/2d/reporting/manifest.json

Use the correct protocol, HTTP or HTTPS, and replace [host.mydomain.com] with your host name.

Cloud Manifest: Paste the following URL in the Manifest URL box:

https://apps.vertigisstudio.com/reporting/wab/widgets/2d/reporting/manifest.json

d.Click away from the Manifest URL box to retrieve the Title from the manifest.json file.

You can change the title if you want.

e.Add one or more tags for the item, for example, VertiGIS Studio, Reporting, and widget.

f.Click Add Item.

The 2D Reporting widget is now registered with your portal.

3.3D Widget: If your organization uses 3D Web AppBuilder apps, add an item for the 3D widget:

a.Add an application: in My Content, click Add Item and select An application.

b.Set the Type to Application Extension (AppBuilder).

c.Specify the URL to the 3D widget's manifest.json file.

You can either use your on-premises copy of the manifest.json file or, if your portal has Internet access, the copy in the cloud:

On-Premises Manifest: Locate the manifest.json file in your VertiGIS Studio Reporting deployment and enter its URL in the Manifest URL box.

If you used the default IIS settings in the VertiGIS Studio Reporting Post Installer, then the URL will look something like this:

[http]://[host.mydomain.com]/vertigisstudio/reporting/wab/widgets/3d/reporting/manifest.json

Use the correct protocol, HTTP or HTTPS, and replace [host.mydomain.com] with your host name.

Cloud Manifest: Paste the following URL in the Manifest URL box:

https://apps.vertigisstudio.com/reporting/wab/widgets/3d/reporting/manifest.json

d.Click away from the Manifest URL box to retrieve the Title from the manifest.json file.

You can change the title if you want.

e.Add one or more tags for the item, for example, VertiGIS Studio, Reporting, and widget.

f.Click Add Item.

The 3D Reporting widget is now registered with your portal.

4.Portal for ArcGIS 10.5.1 Only: If you use version 10.5.1 of Portal for ArcGIS, you must modify your Portal installation to support the Reporting widgets. To do this, you will copy some files from Web AppBuilder (Developer Edition) 2.4 to Web AppBuilder in your Portal for ArcGIS installation, as follows:

a.Sign in to ArcGIS for Developers.

If you don't have an ArcGIS for Developers account, you can get a free account here.

b.Download Web AppBuilder (Developer Edition) 2.4.

c.Extract the contents of the archive.

d.Locate the jimu.js folder in Web AppBuilder (Developer Edition).

The folder is here:

WebAppBuilderForArcGIS\client\stemapp\jimu.js

e.Open a second File Explorer window and locate the jimu.js folder in your Portal for ArcGIS installation.

If Portal for ArcGIS is installed at the default location, the folder is here:

C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Portal\Apps\webappbuilder\stemapp\jimu.js

f.Copy the LayerInfos folder and all the files from the jimu.js folder in Developer Edition to the jimu.js folder in Portal for ArcGIS.

g.When prompted, overwrite the existing files.

The main.js and oauth-callback.html files will be overwritten.

h.Clear your browser's cache.

The next time you open or reload Web AppBuilder in Portal for ArcGIS, you will be able to access the Reporting widget from an app's Widgets panel (Widget | Set the widgets in this controller | Custom | Reporting). In 2D apps, you can access the 2D widget. In 3D apps, you can access the 3D widget.
