List Widget Search Does Not Give Suggestions in Developer Edition 1.12

[JeffreyThompson2]

I have just upgraded from 1.11 to 1.12 version of developer edition and the search function of the List Widget is not giving suggestions in the 1.12 version.

Version 1.11 (Search bar from list widget on right side. Left side is a custom list widget.)

Version 1.12

The area where suggestions should appear greys, but no actual suggestions.

Hi @JeffreyThompson2 ,

Thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately, I am not able to reproduce the problem with my data. 

We are actually releasing a new 1.12 downloadable on next Monday (7/10). Would you be able to test it again with the new package then and see if the problem still exist for you? 

Thanks,
Wei

@JeffreyThompson2  does your Map Widget contain an Extent changes trigger? If so, it would be interesting to see if you deleted this trigger and see if that fixes your problem.

I have found that if you have an Extent change trigger applied to the Map Widget that it can corrupt data sources feeding other widgets including the Search & Filter widget. 

I raised a case with ESRI which landed in a Bug BUG-000159496. It is rather painful as it means we cannot use the Map Widget extent changes triggers in tandem with Search and Filter widgets.

We are operating within ArcGIS Portal 11.0 and the data source I am using is a Feature Service coming from SDE.

I do not have an extent change trigger.

Hi @JeffreyThompson2 ,

After conducting an investigation, it has been determined that this issue is not related to regression. The issue stems from a filter applied to a geometry field in the original data source.

DISTINCT is not supported with geometry. However, when querying for suggestions, distinct values are being used.

To address this issue, we have planned an enhancement: when querying for suggestions, the returnGeometry parameter will be set to false.

Please refer to the rest API documentation at: https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/services-reference/enterprise/query-feature-service-layer-.htm 

As a temporary solution for this release, a workaround would be to remove the filter from the original data source.

Thanks,

Shengdi

I would like to reiterate that  suggestions were working just fine in 1.11. 

The filters from the filter widgets are all turned off. There is a filter on the data source in the webmap, but it cannot be removed as it is hiding information that should not be shown to the public. (We have parks which are not yet open to the public, so we don't want them shown to potential visitors yet.)

The primary purpose of upgrading was to try out the Near Me widget, but in testing, I found the interface to be too clunky for civilian use. The ideal version of Near Me for this application would just be a search bar in which the user could enter their address and it would filter or sort the list by proximity.

For now, we will keep using the 1.11 version.
