Configure launch actions

Available for an ArcGIS organization licensed with the Indoors extension.

Launch actions allow users to report against assets and other features in the ArcGIS Indoors map and find additional details related to those features without getting lost in the transition between multiple apps.

Indoors includes support for launch actions to third-party apps directly from the info panel in Indoor Viewer and the info card in Indoors mobile apps. These launch actions enable organizations to integrate information related to Indoors items or items available in additional work order, asset, and other point of interest layers that may be included in the Indoors map. A launch action can be configured to open a web page or native mobile app to allow app users to submit incidents or requests against a selected feature. You can create launch actions to automatically populate form fields with information from the item, or open a web page or mobile app directly to information related to the item.

Access the Configure Indoors Launch Actions pane

The Configure Indoors Launch Actions pane allows you to interactively create and manage launch actions. When preparing your web maps and mobile map packages, you can define launch actions in the map for specific layers or categories before sharing it to your ArcGIS organization.

Launch actions are supported for use with feature layers and map image layers. When preparing a map to use with the Indoors mobile apps, check which layer types are supported.

Complete the following steps to access the pane in ArcGIS Pro:

  1. Click the View tab.
  2. In the Windows group, click the Indoors drop-down arrow and click Configure Indoors Launch Actions Configure Indoors Launch Actions.

    The Configure Indoors Launch Actions pane appears.

Create a launch action

You can create a launch action by clicking the Create Indoors Launch Action button in the Configure Indoors Launch Actions pane. This opens a wizard that guides you through the workflow to create a launch action for your active map. Once a launch action is created, it is listed in the Configure Indoors Launch Actions pane by its description.

Edit a launch action

You can edit a launch action by right-clicking a launch action in the Configure Indoors Launch Actions pane and clicking Edit.

Note:

Launch actions configured in the Configure Indoors Launch Actions pane can later be modified when editing a map or published web map in ArcGIS Pro or when configuring a Viewer app.
