Attribute Rules constraint issue

[V1212]

Hi, Im trying to create a constraint that prevents a field (name_id) from being edited

I can't figure out what's wrong with this statement: 

if ($feature.name_id !=$feature.name_id)

{

return false;

}

else 

return true;

Thanks for the help!

Do you have more information about the issue, what is wrong with the script, or what the behavior of the script is unexpected?

Based on a cursory glance, I think you should be using the $originalfeature global to check if the edit that triggers the rule is changing the attribute for that field (name_id). 

if ($feature.name_id !=$originalfeature.name_id)

Check out the blog here to learn more about the $originalfeature https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-pro/data-management/originalfeature-new-attribute-r...
