Seems like this should be simple, but I'm stumped. i need the functionality to be done in such a a way that on button click the identify task should be run properly on every click function on map . and on the same time when i press the same button again it should stop the API calls, and the event should be removed and vice-versa. how do it can be possible?

var identifyButton = dom.byId("identify")
on(identifyButton"click"function (evt) {
    map.on("click"executeIdentifyTask);

    //create identify tasks and setup parameters
    identifyTask = new IdentifyTask(textbox.value);

    identifyParams = new IdentifyParameters();
    identifyParams.tolerance = 3;
    identifyParams.returnGeometry = true;
    identifyParams.layerIds = [02];
    identifyParams.layerOption = IdentifyParameters.LAYER_OPTION_ALL;
    identifyParams.width = map.width;
    identifyParams.height = map.height;
  })
  function executeIdentifyTask(event) {
    identifyParams.geometry = event.mapPoint;
    identifyParams.mapExtent = map.extent;

    var deferred = identifyTask
      .execute(identifyParams)
      .addCallback(function (response) {
        // response is an array of identify result objects
        // Let's return an array of features.
        return arrayUtils.map(responsefunction (result) {
          var feature = result.feature;
          var layerName = result.layerName;

          feature.attributes.layerName = layerName;
              var Templates = new InfoTemplate("");
              feature.setInfoTemplate(Templates);

              return feature;
        });
      });

    // InfoWindow expects an array of features from each deferred
    // object that you pass. If the response from the task execution
    // above is not an array of features, then you need to add a callback
    // like the one above to post-process the response and return an
    // array of features.
    map.infoWindow.setFeatures([deferred]);
    map.infoWindow.show(event.mapPoint);
  }

Hi Steffi Antony,

You can use the connect and disconnect to disable the events. And if I understand your requirement correctly, I have put together a sample for you. Have a look at it at Identify with Popup 

The source code you can find at https://codepen.io/mrpatel/pen/OJNwMeE 

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Thank you. Manish Patel‌ meanwhile i added 2 line of code.

    identifyClickHandler = on(map'click'executeIdentifyTask);

  identifyClickHandler.remove();

is this ok??

  var identifyButton = dom.byId("identify")
  on(identifyButton"click"function (evt) {
    identifyClickHandler = on(map'click'executeIdentifyTask);
    identifyTask = new IdentifyTask(textbox.value);

    identifyParams = new IdentifyParameters();
    identifyParams.tolerance = 3;
    identifyParams.returnGeometry = true;
    identifyParams.layerIds = [02];
    identifyParams.layerOption = IdentifyParameters.LAYER_OPTION_ALL;
    identifyParams.width = map.width;
    identifyParams.height = map.height;
  })
  function executeIdentifyTask(event) {
    identifyParams.geometry = event.mapPoint;
    identifyParams.mapExtent = map.extent;

    var deferred = identifyTask
      .execute(identifyParams)
      .addCallback(function (response) {
        return arrayUtils.map(responsefunction (result) {
          var feature = result.feature;
          var layerName = result.layerName;

          feature.attributes.layerName = layerName;
          // console.log(feature.attributes);
          var Templates = new InfoTemplate("");
          feature.setInfoTemplate(Templates);

          return feature;
        });
      });
    map.infoWindow.setFeatures([deferred]);
    map.infoWindow.show(event.mapPoint);
    identifyClickHandler.remove();
  }
