Attribute Rules and ArcGIS Collector

Question

Hi there,

We have done some extensive testing with Collector and it looks like attribute rules are not support for client side evaluation especially during offline workflows @10.8. Can someone confirm this is the case and if so, what is the time frame for this support?

Thanks

Fraser

Hi Dallas,

We aren't using objectid or globalid for PK / FK due to some other limitations we have - so the attribute rule just uses the Arcade function Guid() to generate a new guid for the key.

Thanks

Yes, I'm using something like that. I pass our primary key (globalid) to the foreign key (guid) in the attributes list. I went through a few versions of the rules (we have about 20) and sometimes did have a problem where edits wouldn't update the other class when made offline.

Can you share more about how you're generating your primary key?

Sorry - one more - I'm assuming you do something like this right:

return { 'result': noAddress + ' addresses found in the district.', 'edit': [{ 'className': 'Address_pnts', 'updates': AddList }] }

As in for your inspection you are adding predefined values for the fields - the user in offline mode cannot edit the related table record unless its using objectid or globalid as the PK / FK

Thanks!
