How to prevent users from drawing a polygon or dropping the point outside South African borders?

Hi All

I have this JavaScript code that displays an Esri map. The users of this map can draw a polygon and retrieve information like the coordinates, the province name, ward, local municipality and district municipality. Now I want to limit the users to only drawing the polygon inside South Africa only. If they draw the polygon outside the boarders, they should get an error message telling them that this is outside South Africa. How can I do that? Below is my code:

You can use the geometryEngine's contains or intersects methods (or a combination of both) to determine if the sketched geometry is within your boundary. This sample shows one way to do that.

If you'd rather warn the user while drawing, you could use the Draw class (this sample provides feedback as the user draws a line)
