Specify gdbVersion for the IdentifyTask

NaciDilekli

I have a project that makes use of multiple GDB versions that I use for editing. My mapper also has an identify tool, and as expected it returns the identify results of the default version (default SDE). I saw in the docs that one could use the options property to specify the gdbVersion. So I wrote the following line:

identifyTask <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">new</SPAN> <SPAN class="token class-name">IdentifyTask</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>systemURL<SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN> versionName<SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN>‍<SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

But the identify is still returning the results from the default SDE version. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks, Naci

Figured it out by some wild guess. Passed the following JSON object (not just the string) and voila. 

<SPAN class="punctuation token">{</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">'gdbVersion'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">:</SPAN> <SPAN class="string token">'sde.'</SPAN> <SPAN class="operator token">+</SPAN> sysName <SPAN class="operator token">+</SPAN> <SPAN class="string token">'Editor'</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">}</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

Hey ESRI support, someone should fix the JS documentation.
