Additional Information

The classic Esri Story Map templates (such as Series and Shortlist) are in extended support. This bug has a low impact and there is a workaround, so it is not something in the plan to be addressed in an ArcGIS Enterprise patch. For more information about the status of the classic storytelling templates, see https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-storymaps/announcements/transition-timeline-for-classic-story-maps-august-2021/.

Workaround

The user is able to manually disable the 'Share Link' icon by conducting the following workflow:

  1. On the machine where Portal for ArcGIS is installed, open File Explorer.
  2. Navigate to (default) C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Portal\apps\{StoryMapTemplate}\app\config.js.
  3. Open config.js in a Notepad++ or Notepad.
  4. In lines 21-22, change "true" to "false".

  5. Save and close the config.js file.

Reference Documentation: https://github.com/Esri/storymap-series#configuration.

Note: This workaround is an unsupported workflow and makes a support case out of scope if a user submits a case against this issue in the future. It also applies to all current and future ArcGIS StoryMaps templates selected for this workaround, therefore a user may not pick and choose which ArcGIS StoryMaps to share or not.
