Prerequisites
Before starting, make sure that:
- You have an ArcGIS Online organization account that is provisioned with access to our imagery. For information on how to be provisioned with access to Nearmap's ArcGIS Online offering, click here.
- You are Portal user who is able to add items from ArcGIS Online and can share/publish content within Portal to other users.
- Portal can access items from ArcGIS online. Check that there are no firewall restrictions between Portal and ArcGIS Online.
NOTE: If your corporate security policies restrict your Portal from communicating to the internet, you may need set up a collaboration workspace between ArcGIS Online and your ArcGIS Portal. This allows interaction between the two in a secure fashion, and, in turn, to authenticate access to Nearmap Marketplace item. This Esri article explains how to do this and we recommend that you consult your Esri implementation specialist on the specifics of setting it up.
