esri flex api print widget exclude feature service

Question

Greetings,

I am creating a flex application that has both an edit widget and a print widget. Each of these tools work well independent of each other. However, when I integrate them into the same application, the print widget fails because of the feature layer that the edit widget is used to edit. the error I get is:

Error executing print task:

[RPC Fault faultString="Unable to complete operation." faultCode="400" faultDetail="Error executing tool.: Layer "Easements": Failed to create layer from service at http://myDomain/ArcGIS/rest/services/SharedMaps/editLayer/FeatureServer/0.

Failed to execute (Export Web Map).

Failed to execute (Export Web Map Task)."]

The feature service that causes the error does not need to be printed. How do I exclude the error inducing feature service from the print widget at runtime?

Thanks, Tyler

I was having the same issue.  It's a known bug in 10.1-10.2.2.  10.3 is supposed to have a fix.  I'm in the midst of testing it and it seems better.  I've come across a different issue though, so I'm not entirely certain it's fully functional yet...

Thanks for the documentation! I corrected my syntax and am getting the same error. Hmmm....

I'll post back if I find a solution.

Thanks, Tyler

When I tested I did not have to exclude anything. The docs give examples of how to use the excludelayerfromlegend: ArcGIS Viewer for Flex - Print Widget tags‌
