Share a layer on ArcGIS

Sharing your Esri Maps for SAP BusinessObjects layers to ArcGIS is a quick and easy way to share information with others in your organization or in the ArcGIS public community. You can share individual layers or the entire map.

Note:

You can only share layers to ArcGIS if you are signed in with an organizational account that has publisher permissions. If you are unsure of your account permissions, contact your ArcGIS subscription administrator.

Only layers that have been created with Esri Maps for SAP BusinessObjects can be shared. You cannot share layers to ArcGIS that you have added using the Search.

  1. Sign in to ArcGIS if you are not already signed in.
  2. Press the Show map contents button to display the Contents pane.
  3. On the Contents pane, press the arrow to the right of the layer you want to share.
  4. Press Share layer.

    Share layer will only be visible if you have selected a layer that can be shared on ArcGIS. Layers you create with data from your business system can be shared on ArcGIS. Layers you have added using the Search cannot be shared.

  5. Specify a title, tags, and a description for the layer and choose whether to share it with everyone (public), your organization, or any groups to which you belong.
  6. Press Share.
