Since version: 1.6
With the Form Constraint profile, expressions can be written to evaluate whether or not a feature meets the criteria defined in the expression. This profile is used for advanced attribute editing in Forms. The script should return a Boolean with true indicating the feature meets the constraint criteria or false indicating it does not meet the criteria.
Context
The following products implement this profile:
- ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript
- ArcGIS Online
- ArcGIS Enterprise
- ArcGIS Field Maps
Spatial reference
The spatial reference of the map in which the expression executes determines the execution context's spatial reference.
Time zone
The time zone of the map in which the expression executes determines the execution context's default time zone.
