Property DetailsInherited
Property declaredClass Stringreadonly
The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className
.
The element's description providing the purpose behind it.
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.23 FieldElement since 4.16, editableExpression added at 4.23.
A reference to the name of an Arcade expression defined in the expressionInfos of the FormTemplate.
When this expression evaluates to true
, it is possible to edit the field value, and vice-versa if false
. If the referenced field on the feature service is not editable, the editable expression is ignored and the element is not editable.
$feature
global input and must return either true
or false
.$map
variable.The field name as defined by the feature layer. Set this property to indicate which field to edit.
Contains a hint used to help editors while editing fields. Set this as a temporary placeholder for text/number inputs in either TextAreaInput or TextBoxInput.
The input to use for the element. The client application is responsible for defining the default user interface.
A string value containing the field alias. This should not be used for referencing fields in Arcade expressions. Rather, the service fieldName should be referenced.
A reference to the name of an Arcade expression defined in the expressionInfos of the FormTemplate. An expression that evaluates to true
results in the field element requiring the end user to provide a value for fieldName for the feature to be created or edited. If the expression evaluates to false
, the end user is not required to provide a value to the element.
If the referenced fieldName is non-nullable, the requiredExpression
is ignored and the element is always required.
$feature
global input and must return either true
or false
.$map
variable.Examples
// The diameter field requires a value to be created or edited
// if the inspectionStatus value is "Complete"
// if the status is not complete, then this field value is optional
const dbhFieldElement = new FieldElement({
fieldName: "diameter",
input: {
type: "text-box"
},
requiredExpression: "tree-dbh",
editableExpression: "editable"
});
layer.formTemplate = new FormTemplate({
elements: [ dbhFieldElement ],
expressionInfos: [{
expression: "$feature.inspectionStatus == 'Complete'",
name: "tree-dbh",
title: "Tree DBH",
returnType: "boolean"
}, {
expression: "true",
name: "editable",
returnType: "boolean"
}]
});
// The field value will ALWAYS be required when editing with a form
const dbhFieldElement = new FieldElement({
editable: true,
fieldName: "diameter",
input: {
type: "text-box"
},
requiredExpression: "always-required",
editableExpression: "editable"
});
layer.formTemplate = new FormTemplate({
elements: [ dbhFieldElement ],
expressionInfos: [{
// An expression that always returns true
expression: "true",
name: "always-required",
returnType: "boolean"
}, {
expression: "true",
name: "editable",
returnType: "boolean"
}]
});
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.23 FieldElement since 4.16, valueExpression added at 4.23.
A reference to the name of an Arcade expression defined in the expressionInfos of the FormTemplate.
Once the expression evaluates, the form's field value updates to the expression's result.
Example
// Calculates the diameter based on the circumference field
const dbhFieldElement = new FieldElement({
fieldName: "diameter",
input: {
type: "text-box"
},
valueExpression: "tree-dbh",
// element must not be editable to enable valueExpression
editableExpression: "not-editable"
});
layer.formTemplate = new FormTemplate({
elements: [ dbhFieldElement ],
expressionInfos: [{
expression: "Round(DefaultValue($feature.circumference, 0) / PI, 1)",
name: "tree-dbh",
title: "Tree DBH",
returnType: "boolean"
}, {
expression: "false",
name: "not-editable",
returnType: "boolean"
}]
});
A reference to the name of an Arcade expression defined in the expressionInfos of the FormTemplate.
When this expression evaluates to true
, the element is displayed. When the expression evaluates to false
the element is not displayed. If no expression is provided, the element is always displayed. Care must be taken when defining a visibility expression for a non-nullable field as to make certain the specified field has either 1) a default value, or 2) is made visible to the end user to enter a value before submitting the form.
Example
// Expression created within ExpressionInfos and is referenced in element
const expression = new ExpressionInfo({
name: "alwaysHidden",
expression: "false"
});
// Reference an already-defined visibilityExpression set within the ExpressionInfos
const fieldElement = new FieldElement({
type: "field",
fieldName: "inspemail",
label: "Email address",
visibilityExpression: "alwaysHidden"
});
formTemplate.expressionInfos = [ expression ];
formTemplate.elements = [ fieldElement ];

Method DetailsInherited
Method addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey)
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25 Accessor since 4.0, addHandles added at 4.25.
Adds one or more handles which are to be tied to the lifecycle of the object. The handles will be removed when the object is destroyed.
// Manually manage handles
const handle = reactiveUtils.when(
() => !view.updating,
() => {
wkidSelect.disabled = false;
},
{ once: true }
);
this.addHandles(handle);
// Destroy the object
this.destroy();
Parameters
Handles marked for removal once the object is destroyed.
groupKey *
optionalKey identifying the group to which the handles should be added. All the handles in the group can later be removed with Accessor.removeHandles(). If no key is provided the handles are added to a default group.
Creates a deep clone of the FieldElement class.
Returns
Type Description FieldElement A deep clone of the FieldElement instance.Inherited
Method fromJSON(json){* |null |undefined}static
Creates a new instance of this class and initializes it with values from a JSON object generated from an ArcGIS product. The object passed into the input json
parameter often comes from a response to a query operation in the REST API or a toJSON() method from another ArcGIS product. See the Using fromJSON() topic in the Guide for details and examples of when and how to use this function.
Returns
Type Description * | null | undefined Returns a new instance of this class.Inherited
Method hasHandles(groupKey){Boolean}
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25 Accessor since 4.0, hasHandles added at 4.25.
Returns true if a named group of handles exist.
Parameter
groupKey *
optionalA group key.
Returns
Type Description Boolean Returnstrue
if a named group of handles exist.
Example
// Remove a named group of handles if they exist.
if (obj.hasHandles("watch-view-updates")) {
obj.removeHandles("watch-view-updates");
}
Inherited
Method removeHandles(groupKey)
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25 Accessor since 4.0, removeHandles added at 4.25.
Removes a group of handles owned by the object.
Parameter
groupKey *
optionalA group key or an array or collection of group keys to remove.
Example
obj.removeHandles(); // removes handles from default group
obj.removeHandles("handle-group");
obj.removeHandles("other-handle-group");
