I'm trying to use the detect gaps tool to detect changes in a polygon feed. But when I try to connect the feed to the tool I get an error

Geometry type mismatch. Data must match the supported input geometry types: esriGeometryPoint

 

I don't see anywhere in the documentation that only points can be used as an input. The Gap tool works on track_id so I wouldn't have thought the geometry type matters?

Hi @DrewDowling thanks for raising this. We plan to enhance the Detect Gaps tool to support polyline/polygon in a coming release but you are correct that this is not currently available for non-point geometry.
