Heat Map Widget for ArcGIS Viewer for Flex

[ErnestCacciaglia]

Though the Heat Map widget appears to work properly, it does not return any features when I attempt to use the query function.  I am querying for string values.  Below, please find the query portion of the widget's config file.  Can anyone tell me what is wrong here?


<outFields>MATERIAL</outFields>
   <useamf>true</useamf>
   <defaultquery>1=1</defaultquery>
   <querytemplate>MATERIAL = 'REPLACE_STR'</querytemplate>
   <types>Other,Wood,Metal</types>
   <type_descs>Material = Other, Material = Wood, Material = Metal</type_descs>


Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Hi Ernest,

You might check the CaSe of the values in your field MATERIAL?  The queries are case SenSitive.

Returns 132 records.
http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Earthquakes/Since_1970/MapServer/0/query?...

Returns 0 records.
http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Earthquakes/Since_1970/MapServer/0/query?...

See the sample below for an earthquakes query using a LIKE operator on the field Name
The values in the <types></types> markup must match the values in your data (File Geodatabase Featureclass, etc).

Hope this helps,

Lloyd
