Share your work in ArcGIS Pro

ArcGIS Pro provides numerous options for sharing your work.

Share web layers

You can share your maps or selected layers in a map as web layers. Web layers are designed for map visualization, editing, and query. You can also share stand-alone tables for viewing and editing on the web.

Share web maps

With ArcGIS Pro, you can share your maps as web maps to your active portal. A web map is an interactive display of geographic information you can use to tell stories and answer questions. Web maps are composed of web layers. In ArcGIS Pro, you can author your map with existing web layers or with data layers that are shared as web layers when you share your web map. Web maps can be opened in ArcGIS Pro as well as in standard web browsers.

Share web scenes

With ArcGIS Pro, you can author and share web scenes to your active portal. Web scenes are interactive displays of geographic information, which are useful when you need to display 3D data on the web for visualization and analysis.

Share packages

A package is a compressed file containing GIS data. You share a package in the same way as any other fileā€”via email, FTP, the cloud, thumb drives, and so on. You share it between colleagues in a workgroup, between departments in an organization, or with other users via ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise. The recipient of your package unpacks it and can immediately begin using its contents. You can also use packages to archive your work.

Share web styles

In ArcGIS Pro, you can share a custom style as a web style to ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise to use in the Scene Viewer symbol gallery. You can also share a style with dictionary symbology to ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise to use in ArcGIS API for JavaScript.

Share locators

Sharing a locator allows users in your organization to use the geocoding service in web apps, ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS Online, and other client applications.

Share web tools

Web tools allow you to share your analysis with others in your organization. Data is stored and processing occurs on a server that is federated with your portal, which allows a number of client applications in ArcGIS to run the analysis, even at the same time.

Share geodata services

Sharing a geodata service provides access to a file geodatabase or enterprise geodatabase remotely using ArcGIS Server. The service allows you to perform geodatabase replication operations, make copies using data extraction, and run queries in the geodatabase.

Share a Statistical Data Collection

A Statistical Data Collection (SDCX) is a set of custom variables that define how data is apportioned and aggregated in Business Analyst tools, Business Analyst Web App, and other ArcGIS apps. With ArcGIS Pro, you can share .sdcx files to your active portal. Sharing .sdcx files allows others in your organization to access custom data in their client applications.

Create item files

You can create files that store the item's definition and, in most cases, references to underlying datasets. You can create the following:

Automate sharing workflows

Many sharing workflows can be automated with Python using ArcPy functions and classes in the Sharing module and geoprocessing tools in the Publishing, Caching, and Package toolsets.
