Hi legends,
A layer I am trying to use has subtypes where some fields have different defined domain lists for the field. I have been trying to add a field to my table through Insights and wanting to use the value in the linked subtype fields for some calculations but it seems like these linked subtype fields are unable to be used for calculations.
Any layer circled in green above that is linked to the red subtype can't be used for calculations.
Anybody know how this is possible?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hey there,
I researched this for a bit and found that this is a limitation with using Subtype and Domain fields:
Insights does not support using fields with domains or subtypes for the following capabilities:
Found here: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/insights/latest/get-started/domains-and-subtypes.htm
If you are able to do so, you may create a new column that copies the integer / double value of the subtype column outside of Insights and use that.

Ok good to know there isn't any other way inside Insights.
The documentation you linked did mention copying the dataset to the workbook
Copy a dataset to your workbook—ArcGIS Insights | Documentation
Does this mean it would be a static copy of the data though?
Yes, that would be a static dataset I'm afraid.
