Can Arcade expressions in pop-up pull the last modified date of the Layer

Question

Does anyone know if Arcade expressions in the pop-up can pull data from the layer settings, specifically when the layer was last modified in ArcGIS Online?

I'm looking to create a pop-up expression that states the layer was last updated on <Insert Modified Date>, however this isn't a field within the attribute table

Hi @cat206,

I was wondering if you found a solution? I'm looking for something similar.

Thanks!

Hi Hillary_E,

Thank you for responding. The features itselves don't get edited/updated, but the overall layer does get amended, which is why i wanted to try and grab the overal modified date of the layer instead of each feature, although i'm not sure if this is possible

Hi @cat206 ,

Are you hoping to create an attribute expression for a pop-up that shows the last time a record was edited?

This is possible by first creating a field that provides the last date and time that a record was edited as well as the user who edited it. To do so, enable editing and track changes in the Settings page of that feature layer (See screenshot below).

Once these settings are enabled, you can turn on this field from the Data tab of the feature layer (See screenshot below).
