I have uploaded a simple SHP file to a map in ArcGIS Online.  I've added some customization within a map (symbology, custom popup, etc.). 

I'd like to keep managing that data set in desktop (adding, deleting records). How can I replace the data without losing my customizations.  When I go to "Add Layer from File", I get another copy of the layer, with no customization.

Hi Daniel,

If you go to the item details of the hosted feature service you should see an option to overwrite on the right side:

Thanks Jake.

For some reason, my uploaded layers are not available for those options. It seems that if you add/upload into a map, you cannot access its properties.

I’ve since uploaded into my “content” and it seems to have all the options I’m looking for.
