1—In ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3 and earlier, the corresponding user type is GIS Professional (Basic, Standard, and Advanced).

2—In ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3 and earlier, the corresponding user type is Editor.

3—Requires an administrator to assign the applicable add-on license (Manage add-on licenses > App bundles > Field Apps). For more information about configuring add-on licenses, see Manage licenses in ArcGIS Online or Manage licenses in ArcGIS Enterprise.

By default, ArcGIS Server allows cross-domain requests so that JavaScript clients can invoke the server's services from any domain. However, if ArcGIS Server has been configured to only trust specific domains, you must ensure that the https://www.arcgis.com/apps/quickcapture/ domain is trusted. If the domain is not trusted, the QuickCapture website will be unable to retrieve data and you will receive errors. For more information, see Restrict cross-domain requests to your portal.

Authentication

When working with ArcGIS Online, both the mobile app and web designer support built-in, SAML, and multifactor methods of authentication.

When working with ArcGIS Enterprise, both the mobile app and web designer support built-in, SAML, IWA, PKI, and LDAP methods of authentication. To learn more about authentication, see About securing your portal.

Note:

To sign in to a portal configured to use SAML PKI, the QuickCapture mobile app must use an external browser running on the device for sign in, instead of the default sign-in page. To enable this, you can manually add the externalBrowserSignIn URL parameter to your shared project link, or you can select Use external browser in the administrator settings of the QuickCapture designer, to apply this parameter to all shared project links and QR codes created from the organization.

The QuickCapture mobile app will not be able to use an external browser to sign in to versions of ArcGIS Enterprise earlier than 10.9 unless the arcgis-quickcapture:// redirect URI is manually added to the QuickCapture mobile app item. To add this redirect URI, do the following:

  • Open the Portal for ArcGIS admin application and sign in as a member with administrative privileges. The URL of this administrative page is in the format https://webadaptorhost.domain.com/arcgis/portaladmin.
  • Go to Home > Security > OAuth > Update App Info.
  • Enter {"appId":"QuickCapture","redirectURIs":["urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob", "arcgis-quickcapture://"]} and click Update App.

Supported languages

The following languages are supported by the mobile app and web designer. When the language is changed, app text is translated, and dates, times, and numbers display in the expected format for the language.

For the mobile app, the language used is determined by your device's language setting. (On iOS, the device region must also be set to match the language.)

For the web designer, the default language is determined by your ArcGIS organization user language setting. When a user is not signed in to an ArcGIS organization, the web browser settings are used in the web designer.
