Popups are there after layer style expression

Question

Hi,

I've been trying to use arcade expression to style a line feature in Portal for ArcGIS. The expression works for the desired style. It hides a few of the features from the layer. However, if I click on the hidden feature location on the map, the pop comes up. If I use the same expression in ArcGIS Pro, the expression works as a definition query and shows/removes features accordingly. But in the portal, too many popups.

1. Style expression working

2. Hidden Feature

3. Popups! Too many!

How do I limit the number of popups or make them correspond with the style expression?

Hi Xander Bakker‌,

This data was given to me. This data is basically an exported layer after a 1:n layer join.

As per your suggestions, we'll go with a 1:n relationship class.

Thanks for the above link. Cheers

Hi Rafi Haider ,

I can imagine that having a scheduled task that does the field calculation each night is not the optimal solution (however it is a valid one). I am still wondering why you have 56 features at that location. Is this something that you could resolver using a 1:n relationship? See an example here where the maintenance history of hydrants is shown for each hydrant: https://community.esri.com/docs/DOC-12773-using-featuresetby-functions-in-arcade-to-drill-down-to-other-layers-and-tables

Thanks, Xander Bakker‌.

I thought as it worked in ArcGIS Pro, it'll work the same way in Portal. In ArcGIS Pro, the Arcade expression categorizes a date field into two, symbolizes the categories and doesn't show the rest of the features if the condition isn't met. When you click for popups, it shows popups for those features which are visible, just like definition query.

Yes, the line feature has x numbers of features with the same geometry. For that location, the features were 56. I wanted to see only one popup which met the style expression.

I think I'll go with your solution. The problem is I'll need to have a task scheduler each day to perform a field calculation.
