Arc GIS
Hi,
I am relatively new to Arc GIS and am using Arc GIS online for PowerBI. I am wondering how to create my own reference layer and save it for future use?
Any links would be of great help!
Thanks in advance.
Hi skolungade ，
To create reference layer, you should use ArcGIS map visual. Here are links for your reference:

Hi Liu Yang,
This was really helpful, it was something I was looking for. Thanks
Let me know if you have any additional questions. You can create a layer from scratch and start drawing features and attributes, or you can publish a shapefile or GeoJSON to create a Hosted Feature Layer. These layers are your reference layers that you can use in Layer Joins.
