Geoportal build's it's URL parameter to pass through 'url=' trailing a HTML encoded map service URL. In ArcGIS Online and Portal for ArcGIS, both resources have the ability to pass through URL parameter to define operational layers like: webmap, layers, url, or urls (SOURCE: Use URL parameters to modify maps-ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS ). Geoportal does this by building a URL parameter to tag onto an existing map viewer link.Ĭurrently, all versions of Web AppBuilder only allow to pass through URL parameters like: webmap, center, extent, find, marker and query (SOURCE: Use URL parameters-Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS | ArcGIS ).

Using the open-sourced Geoportal Server, my team would like to use a Web AppBuilder app to pass through the resulting map service record from the search results. I have a need to pass through the same URL parameters to a Web AppBuilder app (Development Edition) as one would expect to use with the default viewers in ArcGIS Online or Portal for ArcGIS.
