Question about Creating Expressions in Experience Builder Text Widget Dynamic Content

bphillips — Mon, 01 May 2023 20:30:33 GMT

I am trying to use the Text Widget in Experience Builder Developer Edition (ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7.1) using Dynamic Content to return data using specific fields. I am trying to return a "0" if a selected address (Point) falls in a specific City Limits (Polygon) and an "2" if it falls outside them. Maybe using a if / else statement. I can't seem to get it to work. Is this possible or is the Dynamic Content Expression only limited to the Expression Functions Average, Count, Sum, Max, and Min? I was also thinking I could use a Count function using a view saying if the count is greater than 0 return "0" else return "2". I wasn't able to get that to work either. Is there a way to do this in the Text Widget or some other way to do this? Any help would be appreciative. Thank you in advance!

Hi @bphillips ,

The text widget supports Arcade expressions in the June 2025 AGOL release.

You can connect the text widget to both the point and polygon layers and use a similar script:

// SelectedPts is the selected address (Point) var selectedPts = $dataSources["dataSource_id1"].selectedFeatures; // If no point is selected if (Count(selectedPts) == 0) { return "No features selected." } // Specific City Limits (Polygon) var cityLimits = $dataSources["dataSource_id2"].layer; var cityPoly = First(cityLimits); // Check to see if there are any selected features within the polygon. var insidefeatures = Contains(cityPoly, selectedPts); if(Count(insidefeatures) > 0) { return "The selected point falls inside the polygon."; } else { return "No selected point falls inside the polygon."; }

Please let me know if you have other questions.
