This workflow describes how to begin using ArcGIS Mission Responder. It assumes that you have access to ArcGIS Mission Responder but have not yet installed it on your device.
Acquire the app
ArcGIS Mission Responder is a mobile app for use with smartphones, although the specific device you use is determined by organizational requirements. Esri mobile apps are available through the respective mobile app stores, but your organization may provide the app to you through an MDM managed organizational environment.
Note:
For version 10.9.1 and prior ArcGIS Mission Responder is version dependent meaning that you must download the corresponding version of the application with the enterprise version that supports it. Versions 11.0 and 11.1 will also work with their corresponding enterprise version. At version 11.2, ArcGIS Mission Responder was released and is backwards compatible with enterprise 11.0 and 11.1. This application will be the only version of the application in the app store eventually. As versions 11.1 and back are retired, we will remove the version dependent applications from each of the respective stores.
App versions
Using the table below, ensure that your version of Responder matches the version of ArcGIS Mission and ArcGIS Enterprise you are using.
Enterprise version | 10.9 | 10.9.1 | 11.0 | 11.1 | 11.2 | 11.2 Patch |
Responder version | 21.2.1 | 21.2.0 | 22.1.0 | 23.1.0 | 23.2.0 | 23.3.0 |
Open the app
Upon opening the app, the splash screen displays the app title and attempts to connect to your ArcGIS account. If it cannot do so, you are prompted to sign in with your ArcGIS account.
This prompt appears under the following circumstances:
- This is your first time signing in to the app from this device.
- The app was updated or otherwise changed since your last sign in.
- You signed out of the app before closing it after a previous use.
However, ArcGIS Mission Responder stores your login credentials and does not ask you to provide them every time you sign in. For security reasons, your organization may require that you sign out of the app after every use.
Sign in
If you are prompted to sign in, tapping Sign In prompts you to provide your portal URL.
Your portal URL is provided to you by your organization and reflects the URL used by ArcGIS Mission Manager. Its format is similar to https://myorganization.me.com/portal/
To enter the portal, type your portal URL and tap Continue. Alternatively, you can use your device's QR code reader to sign in to your portal.
When you have entered the portal, you will be prompted to provide your ArcGIS login credentials. This login information can be your personal ArcGIS account, or it may have been generated by your organization specifically for use in ArcGIS Mission.
After entering your ArcGIS account information and selecting Sign In, you are taken to the mission list and can engage in a mission.
