Use of Text Strings in Arcade

JennHat — Thu, 11 Jul 2024 15:50:40 GMT

Hi all,

I'm new to Arcade, and I'm trying to write code that based on the antenna name, it links to the calibration details and images of the antenna. The problem (I think) is the names of the antennas. The antennas are named things like TRM115000.00 NONE and TRM59800.00 SCIT. There's no other way to differentiate these antennas besides these names.

I've tried to enter in even basic code, but the code never seems to recognize the name. Here's the code I entered, and the "no" is what I got back.

IIf($feature.Name == "TRM115000.00 NONE", "Yes!", "No")

Any suggestions?

Is it possible that there are extra spaces in the antennae names? Try this to see if it returns "Yes!".

IIf(Trim($feature.Name) == "TRM115000.00 NONE", "Yes!", "No")

It turns out that there were four spaces between TRM115000.00 and None that didn't show up in AGOL. I got this fixed!
