Issue of Client-Side FeatureLayer: featureLayer.source not updated after calling featureLayer.applyEdits(edits)

I update a Client-Side FeatureLayer by calling featureLayer.applyEdits(edits), but featureLayer.source doesn't get updated.

Hi there,

You cannot use source to get the features that are added or updated once after the client-side feature layer is initialized. You need to use FeatureLayer.queryFeatures to get the features in your client-side query.

@UndralBatsukh

I use FeatureTable with client-side FeatureLayer. FeatureTable is not updated after calling featureLayer.applyEdits(edits).

How do I update FeatureTable?

Please see my another post:

Thanks.

You can listen the layers "edit" event and call the featureTable refresh method.

@ReneRubalcava

It works after calling featureTable refresh method in

featureLayer.applyEdits(edits)

.then( editsResult => {

featureTable.refresh();

});

Thanks.

By the way, how to clear/remove all features in FeatureLayer?

Is it the right approach?

clear(): void {

featureLayer.queryFeatures().then(featureSet => {

const edits = {

deleteFeatures: featureSet.features

};

featureLayer.applyEdits(edits)

.then(editsResult => {

featureTable.refresh();

});

}
