How to toggle visibility of all layers at once?

Hey everyone,
does anyone know if there's a way to toggle the visibility of all layers in the app at once, regardless of whether they're part of the web map by default or added later via workflows or the Portal Item Picker?

  Hi Johanna,

  You will need to create a workflow. It will loop through the layers in the map and set their visibility to off.

  There might be a better way but here is what I have.
   

  

  Create Value for layers with expression: =[] 

  Set For Each Items: =$map1.map.map.allLayers.items

  In the loop Add item with collection: =$layers.result and item =$forEach1.item.title

  Finally Run Command with command name: layers.set-visibility and command parameter: ={"layers": $layers.result, "visible": false}

  You can also Run Command: map.refresh

  You can save the following as a .json file

  {"_properties":{"isServerWorkflow":false},"components":[{"id":2,"steps":[{"id":3,"inputs":{},"position":"0,0","purpose":"start","title":"Start","transitions":[{"id":37,"position":"90,60 90,120","sourceConnector":"bottom","target":{"id":16},"targetConnector":"top"}]},{"action":"gcx:wf:core::Annotation","description":"Loop through map layers","id":14,"inputs":{},"position":"240,110","title":"Get All Layers"},{"action":"gcx:wf:core::CreateValue","id":16,"inputs":{"expression":{"accessors":[],"annotations":[],"code":"[]","source":"[]"}},"name":"layers","position":"-30,120","title":"Create Value","transitions":[{"id":30,"inputs":{},"position":"90,180 90,240","sourceConnector":"bottom","target":{"id":18},"targetConnector":"top"}]},{"action":"gcx:wf:arcgis::GetMap","id":18,"inputs":{},"name":"map1","position":"-30,240","title":"Get Map","transitions":[{"id":32,"inputs":{},"position":"90,300 90,360","sourceConnector":"bottom","target":{"id":20},"targetConnector":"top"}]},{"action":"gcx:wf:core:loop:ForEach","id":20,"inputs":{"items":{"accessors":["$map1"],"annotations":[{"count":5,"index":0,"kind":"idref"}],"code":"$map1.map.map.allLayers.items","source":"$map1.map.map.allLayers.items"}},"name":"forEach1","position":"-30,360","title":"For Each","transitions":[{"id":34,"inputs":{},"position":"90,480 90,530","sourceConnector":"bottom","target":{"id":22},"targetConnector":"top"}]},{"action":"gcx:wf:core::Log","id":22,"inputs":{"message":{"accessors":["$layers"],"annotations":[{"count":7,"index":0,"kind":"idref"}],"code":"$layers.result","source":"$layers.result"}},"position":"-30,530","title":"Log","transitions":[{"id":36,"inputs":{},"position":"90,560 90,610","sourceConnector":"bottom","target":{"id":24},"targetConnector":"top"}]},{"action":"gcx:wf:app::RunCommand","id":24,"inputs":{"commandName":"layers.set-visibility","commandParameter":{"accessors":["$layers"],"annotations":[{"count":7,"index":11,"kind":"idref"}],"code":"{ \"layers\": $layers.result, \"visible\": false }","source":"{\"layers\": $layers.result, \"visible\": false}"}},"position":"-30,610","title":"Run Command","transitions":[{"id":39,"position":"90,640 90,700","sourceConnector":"bottom","target":{"id":38},"targetConnector":"top"}]},{"action":"gcx:wf:core::Annotation","description":"Turn off Layers","id":26,"inputs":{},"position":"260,620","title":"Set Layer Visibility"},{"action":"gcx:wf:app::RunCommand","id":38,"inputs":{"commandName":"map.refresh"},"position":"-30,700","title":"Run Command"}]},{"id":6,"steps":[{"id":8,"inputs":{},"position":"0,0","purpose":"start","title":"For Each","transitions":[{"id":12,"inputs":{},"position":"90,60 90,110","target":{"id":10}}]},{"action":"gcx:wf:core::AddItem","id":10,"inputs":{"collection":{"accessors":["$layers"],"annotations":[{"count":7,"index":0,"kind":"idref"}],"code":"$layers.result","source":"$layers.result"},"item":{"accessors":["$forEach1"],"annotations":[{"count":9,"index":0,"kind":"idref"}],"code":"$forEach1.item.title","source":"$forEach1.item.title"}},"position":"-30,110","title":"Add Item"}]}],"deploymentConfig":{"supportedApps":{"VSW":true}},"designerVersion":"5.50.0+14","licenseInfo":{"licenseUrl":"https://acura.kmc.nsw.gov.au/vertigisstudio/workflow/service/auth/license"},"start":{"id":3},"transitions":[{"branch":"loop","id":28,"inputs":{},"source":{"id":20},"target":{"id":8}}]}
