I use the following sample to add a shapefile to FeatureLayer but attributes won't carry over.
ArcGIS API for JavaScript Sandbox
Any idea how I can retain all attributes from shapefile?
You just need to specify the Feature Layers fields and outFields properties in that sample.
<SPAN class="keyword token">var</SPAN> featureLayer <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">new</SPAN> <SPAN class="token class-name">FeatureLayer</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">{</SPAN> popupTemplate<SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN> popupTemplate<SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN> objectIdField<SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN> <SPAN class="string token">"FID"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN> source<SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN> graphics<SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN> outFields<SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN> <SPAN class="punctuation token">[</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">'*'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">]</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN> fields<SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN> layer<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>layerDefinition<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>fields <SPAN class="punctuation token">}</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN></SPAN>
Thanks! adding "fields: layer.layerDefinition.fields" solved the issue.
Hi Xiaowen,
Do you have screenshots or code you can share? Off the top of my head I would think that perhaps your shapefile is not a zip folder or your zip folder does not have all the necessary files in it to draw it with attributes.
