Is there a way for someone to add a feature to a editable layer anonymously? I have created map and would like for people to add points to it. I do not want them to log in if possible. Is there a way to make this happen?

Do you mean an editable layer within your map? Or are you accessing an ArcGIS Server Feature Service?

If it's the former, the answer is no, regardless of whether you're signed in or not. While they can add a feature to the map, they won't be able to save the map because it's your map. The can save their own copy of it with their edit, but that's not what you're looking for.

Thanks,

Mike

Yes, I mean an editable layer. (we do not have a public facing ArcGIS Server) I would like for people to be able to got to the map and contribute to the editable layer (add points). I was hoping they would not need to log in because some of the contributors are not GIS people.
