Issue Identifying Single Features in Clustered Layers using identifyLayers

[t-schaal]

Hello everyone,

We're currently using the identifyLayers function from MapViewProxy to identify features in our layers. This generally works well, but we've noticed an issue with layers where clustering is enabled:

Clicking on a cluster returns the expected result using identifyLayers. ✅
Clicking on a single, non-clustered feature does not return a result. ❌

Is this an issue of identifyLayers, or is there a better way to reliably identify all features, including non-clustered ones, in clustered layers?

We considered using identify(on layer: ArcGIS.Layer) as shown in this example . However, since we have multiple layers, calling this function repeatedly for each layer is not ideal.

Any suggestions or best practices would be appreciated—thanks in advance!

let result = try? await proxy.identifyLayers(...)
-> result is an empty array here if clustering is active for the layer and you click on a single feature that is not clustered

Want to check in if you have received my DM and been able to run the snippet.

Just want to check, are you setting the `maximumResult` count on the identify method?

Thanks! I found the issue. We were setting maximumResultsPerLayer to nil, which caused problems identifying single features. Leaving it unset fixed the issue for us. 🙂

Thanks for the update. This might be a bug and we are looking into fixing it on our end. Glad it worked out.
