WAB: How to get popup info from feature layer via js function?

MarkJones7 — Mon, 09 Mar 2020 17:06:04 GMT

Good Afternoon,

I was just wondering if it is possible via JS to get a layers popup information? I was hoping to just grab the info and send it to another widget.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I don't believe this is possible when working from within the WAB framework of Portal. You would likely need to use the developer edition of WAB if you're not using it already.

I am using the Developer version of WAB.

Mark,

In JS the way you get the current popup info is:

var atts = this.map.infoWindow.getSelectedFeature().attributes;‍

Thanks Rob.

I gather I will need some type of handler to listen to the map for when a feature is selected? Using on click doesn't seem right since it would fire where ever the user clicks on the map. =]

figured it out. =]

evtHandler = this.map.infoWindow.on('set-features', function(){
        var atts = this.map.infoWindow.getSelectedFeature().attributes;
        console.log(atts);
      });

thanks again.
