FeatureLayer.applyEdits not working sometimes...

ShaikhRizuan — Thu, 08 Sep 2016 04:32:59 GMT

Hi,

I am having an application developed in WAB, Where we have customized an identify widget to push the data to feature service after identifying the layer on map. There will be multiple users who will be updating the feature service. I am using FeatureLayer.applyEdits() method to update/insert /delete the feature.

Sometimes we could able to update/insert /delete the features in features service from application and sometimes it shows processing image in application for long time and there is no error logged in console.

We are having data in SQL server DB and ArcGIS 10.3. The features classes in DB are not versioned.

Kindly help me to get this solution.

Thanks,

Shaikh Rizuan

Shaikh,

If there are no errors in the browsers web console then have you checked your ArcGIS Server logs for any errors?

Hi Robert,

When i am trying to replicate the same attributes to the newGEometry, it is coming to "Edit Complete" Event only when there is any wrong attribute value. Like if i didn't include OBJECTID field to the array, it will go to "EditComplete" event. When i include OBJECTID, it will update the feature in background but not going to "EditComplete" event.

Below is the code

attr["APPLICATION_STATUS"] = existingFeature.attributes["APPLICATION_STATUS"];

...

....
attr["GIS_SITE_ID"] = existingFeature.attributes["GIS_SITE_ID"];
newUGraphics.setAttributes(attr);
newUFeatureLayer.applyEdits(null,[newUGraphics],null);

Hello Shaikh,

The information provided by you is insufficient. You are just sharing a code where you are calling applyEdits. We are not sure how your edit-complete event is setup. Also are you listening for error event? Is there any error there or in the console. It would be really helpful if you could setup as jsfiddler, where we can see the behaviour.

Thanks,

Thejus

Hello,

For feature service use for edit or modification need to have versioned layers..

What is a feature service?—Documentation | ArcGIS for Server

Hi Thejus,

In WAB add the draw widget and replace those 3 files:

1) Widget.js

2) Widget.html

3) strings.js (in nls folder)

yes, here you might need to change the URL and attributes. On map load i am searching a feature and drawing that graphics on map and from draw widget, user will draw the polygon and update the feature geometry for the feature which has been show as graphics on map load.

Hi Avinash,

we are having many ESRI Online feature services, which is open to the world. Any one can edit the features and those feature services are not versioned. PFB some links

Layer: Areas (ID: 9)

Hi,

Yes, i am also able to update the feature without any error, But after update of feature, it is not coming to "EditComplete" event for this service:Layer: Areas (ID: 9) . So, how do i know whether the feature has been updated or not ???

I am selecting the feature by drawing graphics on the map load and then draw a graphics from draw widget tool and update the geometry with the graphics made by draw widget:

var newUFeatureLayer = new FeatureLayer("https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/Military/FeatureServer/9" );
newUFeatureLayer.on("edits-complete", function(evt) {
if(evt.adds.length >0 && evt.adds[0].success == true)
{

}

else if(evt.updates.length >0 && evt.updates[0].success == true)
{

}

});

var newUGraphics = existingFeature.setGeometry(this._graphicsLayer.graphics[0].geometry);

newUFeatureLayer.applyEdits(null,[newUGraphics],null);

It is working fine, i.e. coming to "edit-complete" event when i am creating a new feature and then deleting the old one
