Function to grab the selection from another widget

[MartinOwens1]

I've created a feature action in eSearch that can open another widget and send the selected featureSet, but I'm having trouble retrieving the selection from the other widget. I'm trying to use the selection from the eSearch wiget as an input for the results of another widget. Any help would be great!

Martin,

   Very likely. The fields in that config need to be fields that exist in the eSearch widget result layer.

The thing is they are. They derive from the same original feature layer. I've even narrowed the config to just one field with no luck.

Martin,

  So now you need to debug the construct table function then placing a breakpoint in the code to inspect the objects.

So here's what I've learned. If the this.reportFeatures = (addressPtsLayer) from the getFeatures function the _constructTable function never even gets called, and there are no object. If I set it to the addressPtsLayer.graphics it finds the objects begins to build the array of fields from the config, but the [field.fieldName] is undefined. If I assign it to a particular field name such as [PARID] it builds, but obviously assigns the parid to ever field in the array.

Martin,

   So you said that the fields in the eSearch result layer are the same as what is the _this.config.pdfReportFields have you actually verified this? Just because they are based on the same layer the eSearch result layer will not have a field if you did not configure that field to be visible in the results.

That's it! The eSeach config was missing a couple of field definitions that are in the Feature Service! Thanks so much Robert!
