ArcGIS Online Layer Data Default Value Not Saving

ZacharyStauffer

Hello,

I have a feature layer stored in my ArcGIS Online gallery that I am attempting to add an additional data field to. I accessed the layer by browsing to it in my gallery, then navigating to Data > Fields > Add. In the Add Field dialog box I entered the following values:

Field Name: INFO

Display Name: INFO

Type: String

Length: 512

Default Value: No Additional Information

Unique: No

When I hit the Add New Field button the field appears in the list but when i click on it to view the details it says None for Default Value. I also checked to see if the default value populated in the table but it did not.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

There is an issue displaying the default value on the Field Details page. It always shows none currently. This will be addressed in our next update, later this month.

Adding a new field and configuring a default value will not set that default to all existing rows in the layer. You can calculate the field if you want to set a value. The default value will appear in the popup when adding a new record. Note, however, that you can override the field's default value by defining a different one when defining a feature template for editing.
