Editor Widget - Configure identifier for selected feature?

wdigis — Wed, 29 Oct 2025 20:25:56 GMT

Question about formatting/settings for the Editor widget:

I've built a simple ExB app to allow non-tech savvy team members to easily update a subset of attribute values.

Is there a way to change the identifier circled below?

I have access to ArcGIS Pro if that helps. Hoping this can be done without having to delve into ExB Dev.

Hi @wdigis, I think setting a display field on the data using ArcGIS Pro will work. It's using the objectID as the default 😊

I have the display field set up and it works for the other widgets. Interestingly enough, it also works correctly when using the "Interact with a Map widget" option.

The Editor widget using the "Attribute only" option is the only instance where it shows the objectID for some reason...

@wdigis There are some limitations remaining around this in Experience Builder that the team is working on resolving.
