Question 1ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator needs to see which members of an ArcGIS Online organization have not signed in for the past 90 days. Which built-in capability provides this information without exporting data to a spreadsheet?

  1. The organization's public profile page on ArcGIS Online
  2. The item details page of each member's shared content
  3. The credit usage dashboard on the subscription tab
  4. The member status report available to administrators in Organization settings Correct answer.

Explanation

Administrators can open member status reports in Organization settings, which summarize last login dates and activity status for all members. This report is generated from platform records, so no manual export to a spreadsheet is required to identify inactive accounts.

Question 2ArcGIS Online administration

A new staff member must be able to publish hosted feature layers and create groups but must not be allowed to invite users or change organization security settings. Which default role fits these requirements?

  1. Viewer
  2. Administrator
  3. User
  4. Publisher Correct answer.

Explanation

The Publisher role is designed for members who create and share content, including hosted feature layers and groups, without administrative privileges over members or security. Administrator grants organization-wide control, and Viewer restricts editing and publishing.

Question 3ArcGIS Online administration

An organization wants every new member to be placed automatically into a specific group that provides basemaps and templates. Which configuration supports this?

  1. Set the group as the organization's default group for new members Correct answer.
  2. Convert the group to a view-only group
  3. Add the group to the organization's featured content gallery
  4. Publish the group's items to the organization's public website

Explanation

Administrators can designate a group as the default group so that new members are added automatically upon joining the organization. This ensures consistent access to shared basemaps and templates from the first login.

Question 4ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to require that all members use multifactor authentication when signing in to the organization. Where is this enforced?

  1. In the credit budgeting settings for the subscription
  2. In the organization security settings for the whole organization Correct answer.
  3. In the sharing settings of each hosted feature layer
  4. In each member's personal profile security settings

Explanation

Multifactor authentication enforcement is configured at the organization level in the security settings, applying to all members rather than requiring individual opt-in. This centralizes the control and supports compliance requirements.

Question 5ArcGIS Online administration

A hosted feature layer must be updated nightly from an external database. Which item property should the administrator configure to allow automated overwrite of the layer's data?

  1. Change the layer's sharing level to public
  2. Set the layer to allow overwrite in its item settings Correct answer.
  3. Add the layer to a featured content group
  4. Enable editing on the feature layer

Explanation

Overwrite capability is an item-level setting that permits the data and schema of a hosted feature layer to be replaced through publishing or an automated process. Enabling editing alone only allows feature-level changes, not a full data replacement.

Question 6ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator is setting up an organization and needs to ensure that members cannot share content outside the organization. Which sharing configuration accomplishes this?

  1. Require members to use the Publisher role
  2. Disable sharing to groups outside the organization and to everyone Correct answer.
  3. Turn off the organization's public profile
  4. Restrict members to view-only access to basemaps

Explanation

Organization security settings include controls that prevent members from sharing items publicly or with external groups. Disabling these sharing options keeps content accessible only within the organization.

Question 7ArcGIS Online administration

A department wants to monitor how many credits its members consume so it can allocate costs internally. Which approach uses ArcGIS Online administration tools?

  1. Assign members to a custom role with credit limits and review the credit usage report Correct answer.
  2. Remove the department's members from all groups
  3. Disable hosted feature services for the department
  4. Ask each member to record their credit use in a shared spreadsheet

Explanation

Administrators can review credit usage reports that break down consumption by member and by item, supporting internal cost allocation. Custom roles and credit budgeting settings can further constrain usage.

Question 8ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator needs to add 200 users from a human resources export. Which method is the most efficient native approach?

  1. Create a group and ask users to request membership
  2. Send a public link that allows self-registration
  3. Invite each user individually through the member invitation form
  4. Use the bulk member import with a CSV file of email addresses and roles Correct answer.

Explanation

Bulk import accepts a CSV containing member details such as email addresses and roles, creating or inviting many accounts in one operation. Individual invitations do not scale well for hundreds of users.

Question 9ArcGIS Online administration

An organization requires that all newly created hosted feature layers be discoverable only to organization members by default. Which setting should the administrator adjust?

  1. The organization's home page banner
  2. The member's notification preferences
  3. The basemap gallery configuration
  4. The default sharing level for new items in organization settings Correct answer.

Explanation

Organization settings include a default sharing level applied to newly created items, which can be set to organization visibility. This reduces the risk of accidental public sharing at creation time.

Question 10ArcGIS Online administration

A group owner leaves the organization. The administrator wants the group's content to remain available and managed by someone else. What is the appropriate action?

  1. Convert the group to a view-only group
  2. Remove all members and re-invite them
  3. Delete the group and ask members to recreate it
  4. Reassign ownership of the group to another member Correct answer.

Explanation

Administrators can transfer ownership of groups and items so that content remains accessible and manageable after a member departs. Reassigning ownership preserves the group's membership and shared items.

Question 11ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to verify which items in the organization are shared publicly before an audit. Which tool provides a consolidated view?

  1. The organization's subscription billing page
  2. The member's personal profile page
  3. The basemap gallery
  4. The item status report filtered by sharing level Correct answer.

Explanation

Item status reports let administrators review content by sharing status, including items shared publicly, supporting audit preparation. This provides a consolidated inventory rather than checking items one by one.

Question 12ArcGIS Online administration

A custom role is needed for GIS analysts who must edit features in hosted layers but must not delete layers or change their sharing. Which privilege combination should the administrator assign?

  1. View-only privileges for all content
  2. Publishing privileges with share-to-public enabled
  3. Full administrative privileges
  4. Editing privileges plus content creation, without delete or share privileges Correct answer.

Explanation

Custom roles allow granular privilege selection, so editing and content creation can be granted while withholding delete and sharing privileges. This follows least-privilege practice for analyst workflows.

Question 13ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator notices that a member's account may be compromised. Which sequence best limits risk while preserving evidence?

  1. Immediately delete the account and all of its content
  2. Change the organization's default sharing level to public
  3. Remove the member from all groups without disabling the account
  4. Disable the account, review recent activity and shared items, then reset credentials Correct answer.

Explanation

Disabling the account stops further access while preserving the account and its content for investigation. Reviewing recent activity and items before resetting credentials supports evidence gathering and containment.

Question 14ArcGIS Online administration

An organization wants members to sign in using their existing corporate identity provider rather than separate ArcGIS Online passwords. Which capability should the administrator configure?

  1. Enterprise logins through a SAML-based identity provider Correct answer.
  2. Multifactor authentication for each member individually
  3. A custom basemap gallery
  4. A featured content group

Explanation

Enterprise logins use SAML federation so members authenticate with corporate credentials managed by the identity provider. This centralizes account lifecycle management and reduces separate password handling.

Question 15ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to ensure that when a member is removed from the organization, the hosted feature layers they own are not lost. Which practice supports this?

  1. Reassign ownership of items before or during member removal Correct answer.
  2. Require members to share all layers publicly before leaving
  3. Disable editing on all hosted layers
  4. Convert all layers to map image layers

Explanation

Items owned by a removed member can be lost or become inaccessible, so administrators should transfer ownership to another member or the organization. Planning reassignment preserves data continuity.

Question 16ArcGIS Online administration

A hosted feature layer is approaching its storage limit and the administrator wants to reduce storage without losing authoritative data. Which action is most appropriate?

  1. Archive older records to a separate layer and remove them from the active layer Correct answer.
  2. Change the layer's sharing to public
  3. Delete the oldest records from the layer permanently
  4. Increase the organization's credit budget

Explanation

Archiving older records to a separate layer preserves the data while reducing the storage consumed by the active layer. Permanent deletion risks losing authoritative records, and credit budgets do not change storage usage.

Question 17ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator must design a governance model where different departments manage their own groups while a central team controls organization-wide security. Which approach best fits ArcGIS Online administration?

  1. Grant Administrator role to every department lead
  2. Give all members the Publisher role and rely on informal agreements
  3. Disable groups entirely and share all content organization-wide
  4. Create custom roles with group management privileges and reserve organization security settings for central administrators Correct answer.

Explanation

Custom roles can grant group management to department leads while organization security remains restricted to central administrators, balancing autonomy with control. This applies least privilege across administrative functions.

Question 18ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator needs to confirm that a specific member's published layer is consuming credits unexpectedly. Which combination of reports is most useful?

  1. The credit usage report and the item status report Correct answer.
  2. The basemap gallery and the home page editor
  3. The member's notification settings and profile photo
  4. The organization's public profile and featured content

Explanation

The credit usage report identifies which items and members consume credits, while the item status report provides context about the item's configuration and sharing. Together they support diagnosis of unexpected consumption.

Question 19ArcGIS Online administration

Which ArcGIS Online role is intended for members who only need to view maps and apps shared with them and cannot create content?

  1. Administrator
  2. User
  3. Publisher
  4. Viewer Correct answer.

Explanation

The Viewer role is limited to viewing shared content without creating or publishing items. It is appropriate for audiences that only consume maps and apps.

Question 20ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to brand the organization's sign-in page and home page with a logo and custom text. Which area of the administration interface is used?

  1. Organization settings for branding and appearance Correct answer.
  2. The credit usage report
  3. The sharing settings of a hosted feature layer
  4. The member invitation form

Explanation

Organization settings include branding options such as logos, banners, and custom text for the sign-in and home pages. These settings control the organization's visual identity for members.

Question 21ArcGIS Online administration

A group must allow members to contribute items but prevent them from inviting others. Which group setting should the owner configure?

  1. Set the group to allow members to invite others only if the owner approves Correct answer.
  2. Remove all members and re-add them as viewers
  3. Change the group's sharing level to public
  4. Convert the group to a view-only group

Explanation

Group settings include controls over whether members may invite others, and these can be restricted to owner approval. This preserves contribution while limiting membership growth to owner oversight.

Question 22ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to prevent members from accidentally publishing layers that are shared with everyone. Which control is most direct?

  1. Disable the basemap gallery
  2. Restrict public sharing in organization security settings Correct answer.
  3. Require members to use the Viewer role
  4. Turn off notifications for new items

Explanation

Organization security settings can disable public sharing so members cannot share items with everyone. This directly prevents accidental public publication while allowing internal sharing.

Question 23ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator needs to audit which members hold administrative privileges. Which approach is most reliable?

  1. Check the organization's public profile
  2. Review the member list filtered by role and privilege in organization settings Correct answer.
  3. Ask members to report their own role
  4. Inspect each group's item list

Explanation

The member list in organization settings displays each member's assigned role and custom privileges, allowing administrators to audit administrative access. This is a direct platform record rather than self-reporting.

Question 24ArcGIS Online administration

An organization's security policy requires that inactive accounts be identified and disabled regularly. Which administrative workflow best supports this requirement?

  1. Remove inactive members from all groups but leave accounts enabled
  2. Change the default sharing level to private
  3. Delete all accounts that have not published content
  4. Generate a member status report, review last login dates, and disable accounts exceeding the inactivity threshold Correct answer.

Explanation

Member status reports provide last login information so administrators can identify accounts exceeding the inactivity threshold and disable them. Disabling preserves the account for potential reactivation while meeting policy.

Question 25ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator is preparing to migrate content from a departing employee to a successor. Which item-level capability should be used?

  1. Change the item's sharing to public
  2. Change the item owner to the successor account Correct answer.
  3. Convert the item to a different item type
  4. Delete the item and ask the successor to republish it

Explanation

Administrators can change the owner of items so the successor manages and maintains the content without interruption. This preserves item IDs, sharing, and dependent maps and apps.

Question 26ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to allow members to use ArcGIS Pro without granting them the ability to create or edit content in the organization. Which license configuration accomplishes this?

  1. Assign an ArcGIS Pro add-on license to a member with a Creator user type.
  2. Assign an ArcGIS Pro add-on license to a member with an Editor user type.
  3. Assign an ArcGIS Pro add-on license to a member with a Viewer user type. Correct answer.
  4. Assign a GIS Professional user type without any add-on licenses.

Explanation

Add-on licenses such as ArcGIS Pro are assigned independently of the user type. A Viewer user type can be granted an ArcGIS Pro add-on, which permits use of the desktop application while the user type still restricts content creation and editing in ArcGIS Online. Assigning a Creator or Editor user type would grant broader privileges than required.

Question 27ArcGIS Online administration

Which statement accurately describes the default credit allocation behavior for a new ArcGIS Online organization?

  1. Credits are unlimited for members with the Creator user type.
  2. Credits are assigned equally to each member automatically upon invitation.
  3. Credits are pooled at the organization level and can be allocated to members by an administrator. Correct answer.
  4. Credits are consumed only when publishing hosted feature layers, not when using spatial analysis tools.

Explanation

ArcGIS Online organizations receive a pool of credits that administrators can allocate to members or groups as needed. Credits are consumed by various transactions, including spatial analysis and storage, not solely by publishing. They are not automatically distributed equally, nor are they unlimited for any user type.

Question 28ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator needs to enable multi-factor authentication for all members. Where is this configured?

  1. In each member's individual profile settings.
  2. In the group settings for the organization's default group.
  3. In the organization's security settings, under the authentication section. Correct answer.
  4. In the ArcGIS Online Config.json file on the hosting server.

Explanation

Multi-factor authentication is an organization-level security setting that administrators enable for all members or for specific roles. It is not configured per member or per group, and ArcGIS Online is a cloud service without a local Config.json for this purpose.

Question 29ArcGIS Online administration

Which item type in ArcGIS Online is used to store a collection of layers and maps that can be shared as a single unit?

  1. Project package Correct answer.
  2. Feature layer
  3. Web map
  4. Web scene

Explanation

A project package is an item that bundles maps, layers, and data for sharing, often used to distribute ArcGIS Pro projects. Web maps and web scenes are single-map items, and feature layers are individual data layers, not collections.

Question 30ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to ensure that when a member shares a hosted feature layer with a group, only group members can access the layer. Which sharing level should be used?

  1. Shared with the organization
  2. Shared with the group Correct answer.
  3. Shared with everyone
  4. Shared with the organization and the group

Explanation

Sharing an item with a group restricts access to members of that group. Sharing with the organization makes it available to all organization members, and sharing with everyone makes it public. Combining organization and group sharing does not restrict access to the group alone.

Question 31ArcGIS Online administration

Which role in ArcGIS Online is designed for members who need to create and edit content but should not manage other members or organization settings?

  1. User
  2. Administrator
  3. Viewer
  4. Editor Correct answer.

Explanation

The Editor role allows members to create and edit content, including hosted features, but does not include administrative privileges such as managing members or organization settings. The Viewer role is read-only, the User role (in older role models) typically allows content creation but not editing of others' content, and Administrator has full control.

Question 32ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to review the status of all members' accounts, including last login dates. Which area of ArcGIS Online provides this information?

  1. Groups > All Groups
  2. Content > My Organization
  3. Organization > Settings > Security
  4. Organization > Members tab Correct answer.

Explanation

The Members tab under Organization lists all members and includes details such as last login date, role, and status. Settings and Content areas do not provide a consolidated member login report, and Groups shows group membership, not account activity.

Question 33ArcGIS Online administration

Which statement about the default sharing level for new items in an ArcGIS Online organization is correct?

  1. New items are private by default and must be explicitly shared. Correct answer.
  2. New items are shared with the organization by default.
  3. New items are shared with everyone by default.
  4. New items inherit the sharing level of the folder they are created in.

Explanation

By default, newly created items in ArcGIS Online are private to the owner until the owner or an administrator explicitly shares them. Organization or public sharing requires deliberate action. Folders do not have sharing levels that items inherit.

Question 34ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to create a custom role that allows members to publish hosted feature layers but prevents them from deleting any content. Which privilege should be disabled?

  1. Create groups
  2. Share content publicly
  3. Publish hosted feature layers
  4. Delete content Correct answer.

Explanation

The 'Delete content' privilege controls the ability to delete items. Disabling it while enabling publishing privileges achieves the desired restriction. Publishing, group creation, and public sharing are separate privileges that do not affect deletion.

Question 35ArcGIS Online administration

A member has left the organization, and the administrator needs to transfer ownership of the member's hosted feature layers to another member. Which method is most appropriate?

  1. Delete the member's account; ArcGIS Online automatically reassigns items to the organization administrator.
  2. Change the sharing level of the layers to public and then have the new owner copy them.
  3. Ask the new owner to recreate the layers from scratch.
  4. Use the 'Reassign' option in the member's item list to select a new owner. Correct answer.

Explanation

Administrators can reassign ownership of items from one member to another through the member management interface. Recreating layers or making them public are workarounds that risk data loss or exposure. Deleting an account does not automatically transfer ownership to the administrator; items may be orphaned or deleted.

Question 36ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator needs to ensure that members cannot share content with everyone (public) but can share with groups. Which organization setting controls this?

  1. Member settings: require members to use groups only.
  2. Content settings: set default sharing to private.
  3. Group settings: restrict group creation to administrators.
  4. Security settings: disable public sharing for the organization. Correct answer.

Explanation

The organization's security settings include an option to disable public sharing, which prevents members from sharing items with everyone. Default sharing and group creation settings do not enforce this restriction. Requiring group-only sharing is not a standard toggle.

Question 37ArcGIS Online administration

Which ArcGIS Online capability allows an administrator to monitor credit consumption by member and by activity over time?

  1. Item view counts in the item details page.
  2. Credit usage reports available in Organization > Status. Correct answer.
  3. Group activity reports in the group's settings.
  4. Member activity logs in each member's profile.

Explanation

Credit usage reports, found under Organization > Status, provide detailed breakdowns of credit consumption by member and by transaction type. Member profiles and group settings do not include credit reports, and item view counts do not reflect credit usage.

Question 38ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to automate the addition of 50 new members using a CSV file. Which tool should be used?

  1. The ArcGIS API for Python with the arcgis.gis module.
  2. The 'Batch Import' tool in ArcGIS Pro.
  3. The 'Invite Members' option in the Members tab, uploading the CSV. Correct answer.
  4. The 'Add Members' wizard in ArcGIS StoryMaps.

Explanation

ArcGIS Online provides a built-in 'Invite Members' workflow that accepts a CSV file for bulk invitations. The ArcGIS API for Python can also add members but requires scripting and is not the native CSV upload tool. ArcGIS Pro and StoryMaps do not have member import tools.

Question 39ArcGIS Online administration

A group owner wants to allow group members to contribute items to the group but prevent them from inviting others. Which group setting should be configured?

  1. Set 'Who can contribute to this group?' to 'Only group owner' and enable 'Members can invite others'.
  2. Set 'Who can contribute to this group?' to 'All group members' and disable 'Members can invite others'. Correct answer.
  3. Set 'Who can join this group?' to 'By invitation only' and enable 'Members can contribute'.
  4. Set 'Who can view this group?' to 'Organization' and enable 'Members can invite others'.

Explanation

Group settings include separate controls for contribution and invitation. Allowing all members to contribute and disabling member invitations meets the requirement. Other combinations either restrict contribution or allow invitations.

Question 40ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator needs to ensure that all new members are assigned a specific custom role by default. Which configuration achieves this?

  1. Use the 'Role Assignment' rule in the security settings to auto-assign the role.
  2. Create a group with the custom role and require all new members to join it.
  3. Set the custom role as the default role for new members in the organization settings. Correct answer.
  4. Manually assign the role to each member after they join.

Explanation

ArcGIS Online allows administrators to designate a default role that is automatically assigned to new members upon joining. Manual assignment is error-prone and not automatic. Groups do not assign roles, and there is no role assignment rule in security settings.

Question 41ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to enable members to use their enterprise logins (SAML) while still allowing a few external collaborators to use ArcGIS Online accounts. Which configuration is appropriate?

  1. Enable SAML and configure a separate organization for external users.
  2. Use built-in ArcGIS Online accounts for all members and disable SAML.
  3. Enable SAML for the organization and allow specific external users to be invited as members with ArcGIS Online accounts. Correct answer.
  4. Require all members to use SAML and disable the ability to invite external users.

Explanation

ArcGIS Online supports enterprise logins via SAML while still permitting individual ArcGIS Online accounts for external collaborators. Disabling invitations or SAML would not meet both needs, and creating a separate organization is unnecessary for a few external users.

Question 42ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator needs to provide a map to the public but ensure that the underlying feature layer cannot be edited by anyone. Which sharing and permission combination is correct?

  1. Share the feature layer publicly with editing disabled, and share the web map publicly. Correct answer.
  2. Share the feature layer with the organization only, and share the web map publicly.
  3. Share the feature layer publicly and keep the web map private.
  4. Share the feature layer publicly with editing enabled, and share the web map publicly.

Explanation

To allow public viewing without editing, the feature layer must be shared publicly but with editing capabilities disabled. Sharing with the organization only would prevent public access, and enabling editing would allow modifications. Keeping the map private would not provide public access.

Question 43ArcGIS Online administration

Which ArcGIS Online tool allows an administrator to review all items that are shared publicly and identify their owners?

  1. The 'Public Items' filter in the Content > My Organization view. Correct answer.
  2. The 'Item Report' in each member's profile.
  3. The 'Security Dashboard' in Organization > Settings.
  4. The 'Sharing Report' in Group settings.

Explanation

The Content > My Organization view includes filters to show items by sharing level, including public items, along with their owners. The Security Dashboard does not list public items, and member profiles or group settings do not provide a consolidated public item report.

Question 44ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to enforce that all members use strong passwords and change them every 90 days. Which setting should be configured?

  1. ArcGIS Online does not support password expiration policies.
  2. Group settings for password requirements.
  3. Organization security settings for password policy. Correct answer.
  4. Member profile settings for password expiration.

Explanation

ArcGIS Online organization security settings include password policy options such as minimum length, complexity, and expiration. These are organization-wide and not controlled at the member or group level. Password expiration is supported.

Question 45ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator needs to grant a member the ability to manage groups but not to modify organization settings. Which role or custom role configuration is appropriate?

  1. Assign the 'Group Administrator' custom role with group management privileges. Correct answer.
  2. Assign the 'Administrator' role.
  3. Assign the 'User' role and make the member a group owner.
  4. Assign the 'Editor' role and enable group creation.

Explanation

A custom role can be created with privileges to manage groups without granting organization-wide administrative rights. The Administrator role grants full control, which exceeds the requirement. The User and Editor roles do not include group management privileges beyond owning groups.

Question 46ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator is reviewing credit consumption and notices a spike from a specific member. Which two reports should be compared to identify the cause?

  1. Storage report and feature layer edit history.
  2. Credit usage by member and credit usage by activity. Correct answer.
  3. Group membership list and item sharing levels.
  4. Member login history and item view counts.

Explanation

Credit usage reports can be broken down by member and by activity type (e.g., geocoding, spatial analysis). Comparing these reports identifies both who consumed credits and what operations caused the spike. Login history, view counts, and sharing levels do not explain credit consumption.

Question 47ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to ensure that when a member is removed from the organization, their content is not deleted but is reassigned to the organization. Which setting should be enabled?

  1. Enable 'Reassign content' in the member removal workflow. Correct answer.
  2. Enable 'Orphan content protection' in security settings.
  3. Enable 'Automatic transfer' in the member's profile.
  4. Enable 'Content retention' in organization settings.

Explanation

When removing a member, administrators can choose to reassign the member's content to another member or to the organization. This is part of the removal workflow. There is no 'content retention' or 'automatic transfer' setting in the member profile.

Question 48ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator needs to configure a custom role that allows editing features in hosted layers but prevents deleting the layers themselves. Which privilege combination is required?

  1. Enable 'Publish hosted feature layers' and disable 'Edit features'.
  2. Enable 'Edit features' and disable 'Delete content'. Correct answer.
  3. Enable 'Delete content' and disable 'Edit features'.
  4. Enable 'Edit features' and enable 'Delete content'.

Explanation

The 'Edit features' privilege allows editing of features within layers, while 'Delete content' controls deletion of items. Disabling 'Delete content' prevents layer deletion while still allowing feature edits. Enabling both would allow deletion, and the other combinations do not meet the requirement.

Question 49ArcGIS Online administration

An organization requires that all hosted feature layers be discoverable only to organization members by default. Which setting should be configured?

  1. Configure a group that contains all members and share all items with it.
  2. Set the organization's sharing policy to 'Private only'.
  3. Enable 'Restrict public sharing' and set default sharing to 'Organization'.
  4. Set the default sharing level for new items to 'Organization'. Correct answer.

Explanation

The default sharing level for new items can be set to 'Organization' so that newly created items are automatically shared with all organization members. A 'Private only' policy would prevent organization sharing. Using a group or restricting public sharing alone does not set the default to organization.

Question 50ArcGIS Online administration

An administrator wants to audit which members have administrative privileges. Which approach is most reliable?

  1. Check each group's owner list for administrators.
  2. Review the organization's security settings for a list of administrators.
  3. Use the credit usage report to identify administrators.
  4. Filter the Members tab by role to list all administrators. Correct answer.

Explanation

The Members tab can be filtered by role to display all members with the Administrator role, providing a reliable audit. Security settings do not list administrators, group owners are not necessarily administrators, and credit reports do not indicate roles.
