Supported content

To add content to a site's content library or layout, the content must be supported in ArcGIS Hub as an item type.

Collections of item types

The ArcGIS Online item types below are supported in ArcGIS Hub, and organized into the following collections which can be used to narrow content searches.

Families of item types

Supported items are organized into non-configurable families. The preview page that opens for an item when viewing it in the context of ArcGIS Hub is based on its content family. The following table shows which preview page (route) opens by default for a given item type.

Note:

To display a user-friendly URL that includes the dataset title in a content view (only available for public content on Hub), enable the anonymous access setting in your ArcGIS Online organization. Hub accesses this organization anonymously to enrich public content by creating a URL that is based on the organization's URL key and the dataset name: orgShort::item-title-with-dashes. If anonymous access is not enabled, a content view URL displays the item ID (a series of numbers). To enable anonymous access, see Configure security. Content can be viewed via the URL: family/item_ID even when a user-friendly URL (with dataset title) is generated.
