It is very much possible but it is beyond the scope. We also got that requirement few months earlier. Small answer is use DB and a server side language (PHP/ JSF / ASP or whatever you are comfortable with). Detail answer is: 1. Introduce a token mechanism before redirecting users to viewer page, save their details in DB. Ensure that users land on default page of the site, save their detail and then redirect them to main application page that should check token first else should redirect them back. 2. Convert index.html page of the viewer into dynamic server side language page like index.asp or index.php that should log entries in DB when fired. Hope that it will help you. Many thanks Abdul, Sound to be a bit heavy for non-developer or IT! I thought it might be straightforward and quite easy to be handled by an end user Best Jamal ... View more

I am not sure what the problem is, but try the following: 1. Delete the uploaded add-in from the Builder > Settings. 2. Upload it again and make sure the .xap file is accessible to the machine from which you use Builder. 3. Restart the IE and open the Builder again. The QueryAddIn should show the description (Settings menu). 4. Clear the IE cache if it still doesn't show up. 5. Install SL Viewer 3.1 (I am pretty sure the add-in is supposed to work with 3.0 too, but I am personally running 3.1) and run the upload again. Many thanks Alexey for the massive efforts, Correct, it was an issue of internet brewer! I used the IE instead of Chrome and it worked fine By the way, the tool is very powerful. Really very useful [ATTACH=CONFIG]23681[/ATTACH] Appreciated Best Jamal ... View more

Hi Jamal, You would need to export the features in each polygon to it's own separate feature class, then assign privileges for the desired user to each feature class. The option you mentioned for the replication limits the features that are replicated.  It essentially just clips the feature class being replicated. For a web application, you have a little more flexibility when it comes to editing features when Editor Tracking is enabled.  You have the ability to 'Enable ownership-based access control on features'.  [ATTACH=CONFIG]23644[/ATTACH] This is based on features though, not an extent.  This will only allow editors to make edits to features they created.  They cannot edit other features unless 'Update' and 'Delete' are granted. Many thanks Jake for the elaboration, It sounds that I couldn�??t express what I wanted to achieve, Scenario: Suppose that I have the following layers (which extend across country): 1. roads, 2. rivers 3. forest 4. governorates (district, states) boundary Now, what I wanted is to give a particular user the permission to edit the portion of the layer of roads, river and forest that lies with his/her governorate (state) ONLY. For example, if I need to grant a particular user the permission to edit the portion of the layers (roads, river and forest) that lies only within the CALIFORNIA state, then this user is supposed to edit these layers only within the boundary of CALIFORNIA and not able to edit the portion of these layers that lies within the NEW YORK state. It should be considered that I need to keep the layer of roads, river and forest all across the country; I don�??t need to clip them for each state (as an example). Otherwise, it is easy to do what I want On other words, I�??m looking for permissions that are granted based a particular boundary such that a user is permitted to edit/update/delete inside this boundary and have no permissions outside it. Is that possible? On database level? Web level? Best Jamal ... View more

Jamal, there is a small user guide that is included in the .zip file you download. From this file: Deploy, enable, use, and debug the Query Tool add-in as describled in the sections below. =================== Tool deployment =================== 1.) Open the ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight's Application Builder 2.) In the Application Builder, click Settings 3.) On the Settings page, click the Add-Ins tab. 4.) On the Add-Ins tab, click the Upload Add-In button. 5.) In the Open File dialog, browse to the QueryTool.AddIns.xap file (included with the sample) and double-click it. Once these steps are complete, the Query Tool will be available in the Application Builder for users to add to their Viewer Applications. ===================================================== Enabling the Query Tool in a Viewer application ===================================================== 1.) From the Application Builder home page, start creating a new Viewer application by clicking the Create New Application button. 2.) Choose the map you wish to start with in your Viewer application. 3.) On the Tools tab of the Application Builder's toolbar, click the Add Tool button. 4.) In the Add Tool dialog, select the Query Layer tool from the Query category and click Next. 5.) Define the tool's toolbar, label, toolbar, and icon as desired.  Then click Next.  6.) Specify the URL to the layer to query and click connect.  The URL must be to a layer or table within a map or feature service, such as http://serverapps10.esri.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/California/MapServer/1.  Once the connection completes, click Next. 7.) Choose the field and operator to use for the query statement.  Optionally, you may specify a default value or a list of values to choose from.  Then click Next. 8.) To add another query statement, click the Add New link.  Otherwise, click the Next button. 9.) Specify the desired options for the behavior of the query tool and click Next. 10.) Specify the tool's dialog title and labels.  Optionally, query statements can be hidden by unchecking the associated checkbox.  Click OK to complete tool configuration. ========================== Using the Query Tool ========================== 1.) Click the Query Layer button.  If there is at least one visible (non-hidden) query statement, the query dialog will appear.  Otherwise, the configured query will execute and results will be shown. 2.) If the query dialog is shown, specify the desired values to query against.  Then click OK to run the query. 3.) When the query is complete, results will be shown.  If the results are geographic, they will be shown on the map and in the attribute table.  If they are tabular (i.e. non-geographic), they will only be shown in the attribute table. =============================================== Setting up the Query Tool for development =============================================== The source code for the Query Tool has been provided so that developers may customize the tool's behavior and use it as a reference for developing other add-ins.  To setup the tool for development: 1.) Open the QueryTool.sln file contained in the Source Code folder that was packaged with the add-in.  This solution contains two projects - a Silverlight project containing code for the Query Tool and a Viewer website project for debugging the add-in. 2.) To debug the add-in, press the F5 key or the play button in Visual Studio.  This will load a Silverlight Viewer website with the Search Tool included on the main toolbar. Many thanks Alexey for the help, The tool is added but it doesn�??t appear under the query category. Please, have a look in the screenshots below [ATTACH=CONFIG]23638[/ATTACH], [ATTACH=CONFIG]23639[/ATTACH] What might be the issue? Best Jamal ... View more

Jamal, I have found recently a great Query Add-in Esri has just released a couple of weeks ago. It looks almost the same as the Query task we had in WMA in Server 9.3. I don't think you need to try get your model working - just download the add-in and enjoy!
