Arcade expression for 6 years after effective date

L77

I need help writing an expression to use in ArcGIS online in a hosted feature service for symbolizing forest practice application data.

This is what I need it to display:

 If (The effective date plus 6 years)= date before today,  Label & Symbol: "6 year moratorium has ended"

 If (The effective date plus 6 years)= date after today,  Label & Symbol: "Active Permit"

 

This is the dataset I am using:

I started out writing this, but it isn't correct.

var startDate = $feature["EFFECTIVE_DT"];
var sixyears = DateAdd(startDate,6, 'years')
return sixyears;

You're almost there. The last step is to determine whether the date you calculated is before or after today:

var startDate = $feature["EFFECTIVE_DT"];
var sixyears = DateAdd(startDate,6, 'years')
return sixyears < Today()

 

This will return true for permits that passed the moratorium date, false for active permits.

 

 

 

Then you can change the legend labels:

 

And that's it.
