Before starting this tutorial:

You need an ArcGIS Location Platform or ArcGIS Online account.
Ensure your development environment meets the system requirements.

Optionally, you may want to install the ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET to get access to project templates in Visual Studio (Windows only) and offline copies of the NuGet packages.

Develop or download

You have two options for completing this tutorial:

Option 1: Develop the code or
Option 2: Download the completed solution

Option 1: Develop the code

To start the tutorial, complete the Display a map tutorial. This creates a map to display the Santa Monica Mountains in California using the topographic basemap from the ArcGIS Basemap Styles service The ArcGIS Basemap Styles service, also referred to as the Basemap Styles service, is a location service that provides basemap styles and data for the world. It returns styles as Mapbox styles and web maps, and data as vector tiles and/or map tiles. It supports all of the styles in the ArcGIS Basemap style and Open Basemap style family. An ArcGIS Location Platform or ArcGIS Online account is required to use the service. Learn more .

Open a Visual Studio solution

Open the Visual Studio solution you created by completing the Display a map tutorial.
Continue with the following instructions to display a web map hosted in ArcGIS Online in the map view.

Update the tutorial name used in the project (optional)

The Visual Studio solution, project, and the namespace for all classes currently use the name DisplayAMap. Follow the steps below if you prefer the name to reflect the current tutorial. These steps are not required, your code will still work if you keep the original name.

The tutorial instructions and code use the name DisplayAWebMap for the solution, project, and namespace. You can choose any name you like, but it should be the same for each of these.

Update the name for the solution and the project.
- In Visual Studio, in the Solution Explorer, right-click the solution name and choose Rename. Provide the new name for your solution.
- In the Solution Explorer, right-click the project name and choose Rename. Provide the new name for your project.
Rename the namespace used by classes in the project.

Learn more , and display it in your app.

In Visual Studio, in the Solution Explorer, double-click MapViewModel.cs to open the file.

The project uses the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) design pattern to separate the application logic (view model) from the user interface (view). MapViewModel.cs contains the view model class for the application, called MapViewModel. See the Microsoft documentation for more information about the Model-View-ViewModel pattern.

Add additional required using statements at the top of the class.

MapViewModel.cs

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Geometry;
using Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Mapping;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;

using Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Portal;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

In the MapViewModel class, remove all the existing code in the SetupMap() function.

MapViewModel.cs

        private void SetupMap()
        {

            // Create a new map with a 'topographic vector' basemap.
            var map = new Map(BasemapStyle.ArcGISTopographic);

            // Set the initial viewpoint around the Santa Monica Mountains in California.
            var mapCenterPoint = new MapPoint(-118.805, 34.027, SpatialReferences.Wgs84);
            map.InitialViewpoint = new Viewpoint(mapCenterPoint, 100000);

            // Set the view model's Map property with the map.
            Map = map;

        }

Modify the signature of the SetupMap() function to include the async keyword and return Task rather than void.

When calling methods asynchronously inside a function (using the await keyword), the async keyword is required in the signature.

Although a void return type would continue to work, this is not considered best practice. Exceptions thrown by an async void method cannot be caught outside of that method, are difficult to test, and can cause serious side effects if the caller is not expecting them to be asynchronous. The only circumstance where async void is acceptable is when using an event handler, such as a button click.

See the Microsoft documentation for more information about Asynchronous programming with async and await.

Modify the call to SetupMap() (in the MapViewModel constructor) to avoid a compilation warning. After changing SetupMap() to an asynchronous method, the following warning appears in the Visual Studio Error List.

Because this call is not awaited, execution of the current method continues before the call is
completed. Consider applying the 'await' operator to the result of the call.

Because your code does not anticipate a return value from this call, the warning can be ignored. To be more specific about your intentions with this call and to address the warning, add the following code to store the return value in a discard.

Complete the Create OAuth credentials for user authentication tutorial to obtain a Client ID and Redirect URL.

A Client ID uniquely identifies your app on the authenticating server. If the server cannot find an app with the provided Client ID, it will not proceed with authentication.
The Redirect URL (also referred to as a callback url) is used to identify a response from the authenticating server when the system returns control back to your app after an OAuth login. Since it does not necessarily represent a valid endpoint that a user could navigate to, the redirect URL can use a custom scheme, such as my-app://auth. It is important to make sure the redirect URL used in your app’s code matches a redirect URL configured on the authenticating server.
Copy and paste the Client ID and Redirect URL into a safe location. They will be used in a later step.

            // Call a function to set up the AuthenticationManager for OAuth.
            UserAuth.ArcGISLoginPrompt.RegisterOAuthConfig();

        }

Best Practice: The access token is stored directly in the code as a convenience for this tutorial. Do not store credentials directly in source code in a production environment.

From the Visual Studio Solution explorer window, open the ArcGISLoginPrompt.cs file.

Set your values for the client ID (OAuthClientID) and the redirect URL (OAuthRedirectUrl). These are the user authentication settings you created in the Set up authentication step.

ArcGISLoginPrompt.cs

    internal static class ArcGISLoginPrompt
    {
        private const string ArcGISOnlineUrl = "https://www.arcgis.com/sharing/rest";
        // Specify the Client ID and Redirect URL to use with OAuth authentication.
        // See the instructions here for creating OAuth app settings:
        // https://developers.arcgis.com/documentation/security-and-authentication/user-authentication/tutorials/create-oauth-credentials-user-auth/

        private const string AppClientId = "YOUR_CLIENT_ID";
        private const string OAuthRedirectUrl = "YOUR_REDIRECT_URL";

In Visual Studio, in the Solution Explorer, click App.xaml.cs to open the file.

Remove the line of code that sets an API key access token.

App.xaml.cs

        protected override void OnStartup(StartupEventArgs e)
        {
            base.OnStartup(e);

            // Set the access token for ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET.
            Esri.ArcGISRuntime.ArcGISRuntimeEnvironment.ApiKey = "YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN";

            // Call a function to set up the AuthenticationManager for OAuth.
            UserAuth.ArcGISLoginPrompt.RegisterOAuthConfig();

        }

Best Practice: The OAuth credentials are stored directly in the code as a convenience for this tutorial. Do not store credentials directly in source code in a production environment.

Run the solution

Click Debug > Start Debugging (or press <F5> on the keyboard) to run the app. If your app uses user authentication, enter your ArcGIS Online credentials when prompted.

You should see a map of trails, trailheads and parks in the Santa Monica Mountains . Click, drag, and scroll the mouse wheel on the map view to explore the map.
