ArcGIS Instant Apps assistant overview

The ArcGIS Instant Apps assistant uses generative artificial intelligence (AI) to do the following:

  • Translate custom input text when configuring an app.
  • Enable users of Reporter apps to complete forms by uploading photos.

AI capabilities and assistants may be in preview or beta.

Note:

Your ArcGIS Online administrator needs to configure assistants before you can access the Instant Apps assistant capabilities. You must also have the privilege to use AI assistants. For beta capabilities, your administrator must turn off the Block Esri apps and capabilities while they are in beta setting. Other account types, such as public accounts, are not currently supported.

For more information about each generative AI capability, see the following:

Security and privacy

The translation assistant (preview) aligns with the following principles:

  • Prompts are not used to train Esri or third-party AI models.
  • Prompts are not used to improve any Esri or third-party product or service.
  • Prompts are not stored or shared.
  • Prompts are not used to improve the assistant for your own use.

AI transparency cards are available with more security and privacy details.

Limitations and bias

Translations and suggestions generated using AI can be misleading or inaccurate. To avoid potentially reinforcing any unintentional biases in the AI models used by the Instant Apps assistant (preview), human judgment should be applied to interpreting and acting upon the assistant's outputs.
