Attribute Rule Validation

Since version: 1.5

With the Attribute Rule Validation profile, expressions can be written to evaluate whether or not a feature meets the criteria defined in the expression. This profile is used for validation attribute rules in ArcGIS Pro. The script should return a Boolean with true indicating the feature meets the validation criteria or false indicating it does not meet the criteria.

Context

The following products implement this profile:

• ArcGIS Pro
• ArcGIS Enterprise
• ArcGIS Maps SDKs for Native Apps

Spatial reference

The spatial reference of the layer from which $feature originates determines the spatial reference of the expression's execution context.
