I import a shape file but I can't create a query with it. Why?

JiayoChiang

I download an San Francisco Elected District shaple (attached zip file).
The shape file import sucessful. "San Francisco District Test"
I would like to only show district number greater than 0 and not null.
Next I try to query. I got a message " There are no feature layers present in the map to define a query upon". I thought I have one imported shape layer.
Please help, thanks

Jiayo

I'm afraid queries on imported data is not currently supported, but we hope to add this in a future release. You can always add this suggestion at http://ideas.arcgis.com where other users can vote on its importance.

Shelly,

Is this still the case? This would be an extremely useful functionality.

Hi,

Queries are still not supported on imported data and unfortunately I don't have a timescale for this either.

If this is really important for you then you could consider signing up for ArcGIS for Organizations (i'm not sure if you'd be able to join the beta now as its release is not too far off) which allows you to import data to create a feature service, against which you would be able to run queries.

It would be good if you could include "Queries are still not supported" in the error message

I am trying to do the same thing - Is this functionality ever going to be added? What good is adding a shapefile if you can't create a simple query against it.

I strongly agree. I just spent a good deal of time -- unneccessarily -- trying to figure out why my layers could not be queried. The current message makes it sound as if the query would be possible, but that the current feature layers are missing some feature that would allow them to be queried. It doesn't make sense that there is a button labeled "New Query", when queries are not supported. Why is that function even there?

I have the same problem. I could really use simple query functionality for my basic online map. Otherwise users unfamiliar with the mapped area can only hope to click the correct location and find what they are searching for.

Thanks

Yeah, query and editing are the most commonly functions for GIS, if it's not supported by ArcGIS online, how can we use it?

LefterisKoumis

One reason to use arcgis online is the ability to query. if that is not available, then the explorer online it is more like a viewer rather a gis application. So, it is more like google maps. wher you can import shp files in your personal free account and create map for other users to view. If esri want users to distinguish google maps (where no plug is necessary) and arcgis explorer online, they must introduce gis features to the arcgis explorer online that is free (so far).

Mike,
We are Silver Partners with ESRI. I appreciate if you can forward me (madhu.reddy@aecom.com) more information about using the queries functionality with ArcGIS for Organizations.
Thanks,
