DatasourceFilterChangeMessage does not appear to match documentation

Hello All,

I'm using ArcGIS Experience Builder Developer Edition v1.12. The v1.11 release notes show that DataSourceFilterChangeMessage should now contain dataSourceIds property as string[] rather than dataSourceId property as a string and this is what the type definition describes. However inspecting the message actually received from the framework shows something like:

{ "type": "DATA_SOURCE_FILTER_CHANGE", "widgetId": "widget_28", "dataSourceIds": "dataSource_1-17d1b07042b-layer-6" }

Can someone please clarify?

Thanks!

A TypeScript type definition ending with [] indicates 'an array of'. So, string[] is an array of strings.

This is a warning that they pluralized dataSourceIds. I would expect the dataSourceIds to be in brackets, so I'm not sure about that part.

thanks for your reply but I read the release notes to say they made the property name plural and changed the type from a primitive string to an array of strings. The typescript definitions supports this but the actual code does not seem to.

Finally found the (apparent) answer. The widget had been ported from v1.9 and didn't seem to pick up the v1.12 version of jimu-core until it was removed and re-added to the Experience. Now the message received from the framework matches the documentation.
