Attribute Inspector not Updating Features - Anything to do with the proxy page?

ionarawilson1 — Fri, 04 Oct 2013 19:33:01 GMT

Does anybody know why the Attribute Inspector does not save the changes? I have used my own data and the example data and both don't work. Do I need to add something to the proxy page perhaps? Thank you!

I noticed this when I tried to change to AMD model. When I used the legacy dojo.require it worked fine.

ionarawilson1 — Sat, 05 Oct 2013 03:03:14 GMT

So what would be the option?

Re: Attribute Inspector not Updating Features - Anything to do with the proxy page?

ThomasRoussell — Sun, 12 Dec 2021 06:29:30 GMT

I would try changing

      require([
        "esri/map",
        "esri/layers/FeatureLayer",
        "esri/dijit/AttributeInspector", ...

to the old format and see if that works:

    dojo.require("esri.map");
    dojo.require("esri.layers.FeatureLayer");
    dojo.require("esri/dijit/AttributeInspector"); ...

    function init() {...

    dojo.ready(init);
    </script>

I tried one sample with that and it is also not working. Do you have any examples that work? Thanks

This code works for me. You will have to change my server, featurelayer and fieldinfos to match your data.

Thanks a lot Thomas!

You're Welcome. Hopefully ESRI will find the problem with the new AMD model soon. I am just getting started with JavaScript and I would like to switch to the new format before I create a lot of code in the old format.

RayGreen — Tue, 15 Oct 2013 18:40:17 GMT

Thomas I copied your code and made the changes needed, but for some reason it still doesn't update the data. Does anyone know if this has to do with my services being https and not using a designated port?
