Hi, my requirement is that on a ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.x web app, a user needs to create a short segment along a route/line/road by specifying the distance, starting point and/or route name.
Examples would be:
- Create a segment along route ABC, 300 meters from an intersection.
- Create a segment along route ABC, 300 meters from a particular point on route 123, in the west/east/north/south direction.
I'm not sure where to start on such task. Has anyone done anything similar? Any pointers would be appreciated!
Would something like this be right?

Do I need the ArcGIS Roads and Highways extension?
We already have a network service published. We are using ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.x, ArcGIS for Server 10.6.
(note I duplicated the question from the ArcGIS-Rest-API-Questions place as I didn't get an answer there, trying my luck here. If anyone knows how to move questions around, that would be great).
