Opening in ArcGIS Online

If the web service for an item is an ArcGIS Rest Service, the geoportal provides a shortcut for adding it to ArcGIS Online. For these items, you will see a button labeled Open in ArcGIS. Click this button and it will open a new instance of ArcGIS Online with the service loaded.

Working with the data in ArcGIS Online

Once the data is in ArcGIS Online, you can change the symbology or perform geospatial analysis. To save your work, you will need to sign in to ArcGIS Online and save the maps.

Adding additional layers to ArcGIS Online

The Open in ArcGIS Online button will only open one dataset at a time. To add more layers, paste the web service URL into your map, or download a geoportal item and upload it to ArcGIS Online.
