Hello Everyone!

I am trying to update the existing value of "PCR_NBR" in featurelayer by looking at the sample code of ArcGIS API for JS using apply edits, but its not working. In this code I am just trying to replace the value by 20. Also is it possible to run loop to have conditional statement, for eg: if PCR_NBR is less than 50, replace it by 20, if it is more than 50, replace it by 100?

Thanks in advance!

As for doing it in a loop, try this (untested).

 

editFeatures = results.features;
editFeatures.forEach(editFeature => {
  if (editFeature.attributes.PCR_NBR < 50) {
    editFeature.attributes.PCR_NBR = 20;
  } else {
    editFeature.attributes.PCR_NBR = 100;
  }
});
const edits = {
  updateFeatures: editFeatures
};
featureLayer.applyEdits(edits);

Starting with the simplest things, have you verified the PortalItem is hosted as a Feature Service with Update capabilities? Are you getting an error in the console?

@BlakeTerhuneThanks for your reply. I am not sure if I understood your question properly or not. I just uploaded a shapefile to arcgis for developers and got portalid from there. I didn't add any additional settings to it. Also, I don't want this code to make changes to the original data in server, I just want to make temporary change on workspace only.

No worries. Looks like you were able to get to the root of the problem. Carry on!

You are calling applyEdits outside the queryFeatures function, meaning it's trying to apply the edits before the query is finished. Try moving it inside the "then" function

 

featureLayer.queryFeatures({
  outFields: ["*"],
  returnGeometry: true
})
  .then(function(results) {
    if (results.features.length > 0) {
    editFeature = results.features[0];
    editFeature.attributes.PCR_NBR = 20;
    const edits = {
      updateFeatures: [editFeature]
    };
    featureLayer.applyEdits(edits);
  }
});

    editFeature.attributes.PCR_NBR = 100;
  }
});
const edits = {
  updateFeatures: editFeatures
};
featureLayer.applyEdits(edits);

Thank you very much @KenBuja, it works. One more question: once we update the attribute value, shouldn't the value in popup window update by itself? Also the value in featuretable widget (assuming we have it in this code)?
