Searching a feature id in multiple feature classes

ab1

Hello,

I'd like to look for all features, existing in all feature classes (located on the server side), that have an id equal to myId.

I'm using FindTask to do that, but it doesn't return anything. It is supposed to return one feature!

Is there a way to do that without using QueryTasks on all feature classes?

Thanks 🙂

in "Find features in Map Layers" example used FindTask.
Set FindParameters -> searchFields="[your id field name]".

Rhett,

Thank you for the answer. But I'm not using Flex Viewer. I'm developing a Flex Web application with the ArcGIS Flex API.

Regards.

In version 3.1 or 3.2 the headercontroller widget has the single line search/locator (seach box in upper right next to about) that can be configured to search multiple layers and fields.
