Bug
When the Legend widget in ArcGIS Experience Builder is used in a different Section widget view than the Map widget, the layer information cannot be retrieved if the view with the Legend widget is opened first.

Additional Information
This behavior is as designed. The Map widget is lazy loading for performance purposes. Map widgets are not rendered until they are visible. In this case, the Legend widget is rendered before the connected Map widget is rendered, so the Legend widget is displayed as blank. Though the Section widget loads content inside the views by default, this does not change the default lazy loading behaviour of the Map widget. Wherever the Map widget is placed, the widget is always lazy loading.Workaround
Place the Map widget outside the section views, or make the view containing the connected Map widget the default view.
