Need a basic spatial query, point in a selected polygon

TracySchloss — Wed, 16 Mar 2016 16:37:40 GMT

I am looking for a widget that let's the user select a polygon feature by a a value and then use that selection as the basis for a spatial query to find all the point features within that polygon.

I see a few options out there, but most deal with map extent or a user drawn shape. Am I missing something obvious or do I need to write something? I see there is a new District Lookup widget in AGOL, but from what I can tell, it's based on an existing data relationship, not an on the fly selection.

Tracy,

You can use the eSearch widget that allows for this exact workflow. The only thing is that it is a custom widget and thus can not be used in a AGOL hosted WAB App.

I've looked at the widget, but it's really way more complex than what I'm looking for. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Tracy,

You can disable may options and even tabs that you will not use.
