Unable to Edit Hosted View with Editor Tracking

Question

has anyone come across this issue since the latest update?

i had field maps configured to edit againt a hosted view that also was set to maintain editor tracking. when users tried to edit a point there was no option edit, only the popup and navigate buttons.

there was an error message:

Expression Name: CreationDate Expression Title: CreationDate Error Domain: com.esri.arcgis.runtime.error Error Code: 15 Error Description: Invalid call., Unable to evaluate arcade expression. Evaluation_error_code::field_not_found Line :3 this expression was not used in any of the form fields and seems to have appeared after the update. after i turned off editor tracking on the hosted view, reloaded the map we were able to edit. but the message was still there. web applications not affected. tested on ios lastest version of field maps

This seems like a two-parter.  The edit button not showing up in the popup may not be related to form calcs.

Here's my theory (and it's just a theory):
- editor tracking was enabled
- edit settings were set such that editors could only edit their own features
- the user who attempted to edit the feature wasn't the one who collected the feature
   - unable to edit
- troubleshooting began
- editor tracking was disabled
- edit settings reverted to 'users can edit all features'
- you were able to edit features

If that's not the case, then I think you need to take a look at the form calculation.  If the calculation is providing an error, it's definitely being called.  The arcade in the function is trying to reference a field that's not in your schema.

I've never seen expressions for calculating the editor tracking data appear in the expressions list.  This might be new.  If that's the case, and if the expression is erroring out, then your editor tracking info may not be getting filled out correctly, which is causing issues with the edit settings shown above.

Maybe take a look at the data table and ensure your editor tracking fields are being calculated?
