Alright, so I finally figured out a way around the dynamic layer and using the polygon feature layer instead. My final issue is setting the definition expression on the polygon layer. I have the expression written out that matches the GUIDs I have in the polygon layer. Unfortunately, after I set the definition expression, it doesn't seem to apply because none of my polygons show up in the map.
hbMgmtTableFL.on("load", function () {
var recordIDs = new Query();
recordIDs.where = "1=1";
hbMgmtTableFL.queryIds(query, function (OIDs) {
var relatedRecordsQuery = new RelationshipQuery();
relatedRecordsQuery.objectIds = OIDs;
relatedRecordsQuery.outFields = ["MgmtTractID"];
relatedRecordsQuery.relationshipId = 0;
hbMgmtTableFL.queryRelatedFeatures(relatedRecordsQuery, function (fset) {
var MgmtTractIDsArr = [];
for (i = 0; i < OIDs.length; i++) {
var OID = OIDs[i];
var feature = fset[OID].features;
var mgmtTractId = feature[0].attributes.MgmtTractID;
if (!(MgmtTractIDsArr.includes(mgmtTractId))){
MgmtTractIDsArr.push(mgmtTractId);
};
}
var whereClause;
for (i = 0; i < MgmtTractIDsArr.length; i++) {
if (i == 0) {
whereClause = "MgmtTractID = '" + MgmtTractIDsArr[i] + "'";
}
else {
whereClause = whereClause + " || MgmtTractID = '" + MgmtTractIDsArr[i] + "'";
}
}
console.log(whereClause);
hbMgmtTractFL.setDefinitionExpression(whereClause);
hbMgmtTractFL.refresh();
});
});
})
Instead of on load of the table feature layer, I've tried doing it on the map after all the layers have been drawn, but no dice. I've tried calling the refresh function on the polygon feature layer after I have set the definition expression as well. I can't return the whereClause variable because it's inside a queryRelatedFeatures method so what would be returned is a deferred object, granted I don't think that getting the whereClause out of the functions would make a difference. There are no errors in the console and I've verified the whereClause variable comes through correctly. I'm stumped.
The ultimate goal is that when the map initializes the layer will display with the definition expression set without the user having to click any buttons beforehand.
