ArcGIS Pro SDK add FeatureLayer to map

FilipKuzman

I know this is a very simple question, however, I find it difficult to find an answer. How do I add an existing layer to my map using ArcGIS Pro SDK? I saw several examples where the layer is added while being created (for example

LayerFactory.Instance.CreateFeatureLayer(new Uri(strUri), map);

), however, how this is being done using the existing FeatureLayer?

Thanks

 int indexNumber = 0;
 shp_path = "C:\path to your shapefile"
 var mapView = MapView.Active;

 if (mapView != null)//Check if there is a map
 {
    System.Uri shp_uri = new System.Uri(@shp_path); //creating uri for the shpfile
    QueuedTask.Run(() =>
    {
       Layer shp_layer = LayerFactory.Instance.CreateLayer(
         shp_uri, mapView.Map, indexNumber, "YourlayerName");
       var selectedLayer = mapView.GetSelectedLayers()[0] as FeatureLayer
      //Do something with selected layer
    });
 }
