Use case

For displaying web maps stored on ArcGIS Online (e.g. terrestrial ecosystems, as demonstrated in this sample).

How to use the sample

A web map can be selected from the list. On selection the web map displays in the map view.

How it works

  1. Create a URL comprised of the Organization's Portal URL and the webmap of interest.
  2. Create a Map using the URL.
  3. Set the map to the MapView.
