Immediate Attribute Update for Generated IDs in Sweet for ArcGIS Without Refresh

Rune_Van_Severen — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 15:37:09 GMT

When adding or splitting a polygon in Sweet for ArcGIS, I want a unique ID to be generated automatically in the background.
This is done using an Attribute rule that uses a sequence table. The trigger logic works correctly: a new unique ID is generated and stored.

However, the behavior is currently the following:

The Arcade trigger runs successfully on add or split
The unique ID is created, but
The ID does not immediately appear in the feature’s attributes
The attribute value only becomes visible after a manual refresh
I’ve also verified that when ‘Wait for server triggered changes’ is checked in the Data Processing settings of Sweet, nothing changes: the ID still only appears after a manual refresh.
Question:
Is there a way in Sweet for ArcGIS to apply the generated ID immediately to the feature attributes, without requiring a refresh, and without having to loop through all records (which is too slow)?
Why this matters:
- Editors expect the ID to be available instantly after create or split
- Manual refresh breaks the editing flow
  Looking for:
  - A way to force an immediate attribute update
  - Or confirmation whether this is a technical limitation of the current editing workflow
    This is my Attribute rule:
    return "VLA" + Text(NextSequenceValue("seq_bedrijventerreinperceel"), "000000");
    
    Any insights into whether this can be handled client-side, via configuration, or via a different trigger approach, without iterating over all existing records, would be greatly appreciated.
