ArcGIS Knowledge Studio is a web app for creating and working with knowledge graphs. The app offers entity-centric tools to visualize, analyze, compile, and share your data. Knowledge Studio is included in your ArcGIS Knowledge Server license.
Note:
Knowledge Studio is available as a beta release in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.2. While in beta, it may not be feature complete and, as such, may have known performance or quality issues and will not be supported by Esri Technical Support.
Knowledge Studio projects created at this release will not be compatible with future releases of ArcGIS Enterprise and Knowledge Studio.
Knowledge Studio allows you to work with knowledge graphs on the web. A knowledge graph lets you construct a model that simulates a real-world system. To learn more about knowledge graphs, see What is ArcGIS Knowledge?
You will need access to a knowledge graph in your portal to use Knowledge Studio. You can create a knowledge graph using ArcGIS Pro, the ArcGIS REST API, or the ArcGIS API for Python. If you are working with a user managed knowledge graph service and you make schema changes such as adding or removing an entity type, you will need to sync your data model before using that service in a Knowledge Studio project.
Knowledge Studio projects
ArcGIS Knowledge Studio organizes your work into projects. A Knowledge Studio project is a workspace for exploring and analyzing knowledge graph data. Each Knowledge Studio project contains one investigation, which includes a reference to a knowledge graph, a knowledge graph view, and a dashboard view. The investigation may also reference related maps, link charts, and data cards. A Knowledge Studio project gives you a comprehensive view of the items in its investigation.
Opening ArcGIS Knowledge Studio from the app launcher in portal brings you to the Knowledge Studio landing page, where you can create a new Knowledge Studio project or open an existing project. You can return to the landing page at any time by clicking the Knowledge Studio icon at the top of the application.
To learn more about Knowledge Studio projects, see Knowledge Studio project.
Anatomy of Knowledge Studio
Creating or opening a Knowledge Studio project opens the main workspace. From here, you can explore your knowledge graph, create maps, link charts and data cards, and search your project. There are six key areas in the main workspace.
- The Title Bar displays the title of your project and provides access to Global Search and the Documentation .
- The Main Menu lets you navigate your project. It includes the following buttons:
- Investigation Contents
- View Contents
- Save
- This area displays panes opened by the Main Menu buttons. It includes the Investigation Contents pane and the View Contents pane. The View Contents pane will update based on the type of content item that is open.
- Each open content item will appear as a tab in this area. You can open a maximum of 13 tabs. If you reach this limit, you will need to close a tab before you can open a new content item.
- The main view of the active content item.
- The Context Toolbar includes tools for the active content item.
