How to web enable feature layers from shapefiles?
To web enable feature layers from shapefiles (packaged in a.zip file) or GeoJSON files (.geojson or.json), upload your files to Esri’s cloud and have them hosted as services. These services are referred to as hosted feature layers. This is a useful workflow if you do not have any ArcGIS products installed locally.
How are scene layers published in ArcGIS Online?
