Item Details assistant (beta)

The Item Details assistant (beta) can help you improve the quality of the information you store about your items, which, in turn, helps other users find, understand, and use the items.

The assistant provides suggestions for the detail values. You can use each suggestion provided by the assistant as is, or use it as a starting place that you modify it to suit your needs.

The Item Details assistant (beta) is supported for the following item types:

  • Hosted feature layer
  • Hosted feature layer view
  • Hosted table
  • ArcGIS Server feature layers
    Note:

    The underlying feature service cannot be secured with credentials.

For the hosted items listed above, you can also use the assistant to get suggestions for field properties.
