Editor

AMD: require(["esri/widgets/Editor"], (Editor) => { /* code goes here */ });
ESM: import Editor from "@arcgis/core/widgets/Editor.js";
Class: esri/widgets/Editor
Inheritance: Editor Widget Accessor
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.11

This widget provides an out-of-the-box editing experience to help streamline the editing experience within a web application. It automatically recognizes if there are editable feature layers within the map. If it recognizes that they are editable, the layers can be used by the widget. In addition, it is also possible to configure how the Editor behaves by setting its layerInfos property. This property takes an array of configuration objects which allow you to configure the editing experience for these layers.

The widget has different workflows based on the functionality needed and are discussed below.

  • CreateWorkflow (deprecated as of 4.23) - This workflow is primarily designed for existing custom workflows that target single feature creation. This workflow will eventually be removed in favor of,
  • CreateFeaturesWorkflow (new at 4.23) - This workflow allows both individual and continuous feature creation at once.
  • UpdateWorkflow - This workflow allows you to update and/or delete existing features within an editable feature layer.

Beginning with version 4.23, the Editor widget has undergone some significant updates including both its UI and the underlying API. These updates are just a few of the improvements on the Editor roadmap. Expect to see more updates as future versions are released. Some of these updates include:

  • The initial Editor dialog has been removed and updated to include one initial panel that consolidates the creates and update workflows.
  • An additional create features workflow was added to include continuous editing. It is now possible to continuously create multiple features of the same type at once. After the initial sketch is created, the attribute form will display with the specified field elements. These fields can be updated as the user creates new features. The existing create workflow will still work but has been marked as deprecated in favor of using create features workflow. This new workflow is designed for both individual and multiple feature creation.
  • Snapping is automatically included in the widget's UI. By default, snapping is disabled. Toggle "Enable snapping" to enable it. By default, both geometry constraints and feature to feature snapping is enabled. Geometry constraints allow the editor to specify how they want their geometries to be drawn. For example, if lines are needed to be at exact right angles, the snapping indicators display as such and vertices can be created appropriately. Feature to feature snapping allows the new or existing geometries to be snapped to geometries in other layers, as shown within the Snapping layer list, or with geometries within the layer that is currently being edited. By default, all layers that can be configured for snapping are automatically added to this list. If needing to update this, update the Editor's snappingOptions by setting the FeatureSnappingLayerSource directly.

Known Limitations

The Editor widget is not yet at full parity with the functionality provided in the 3.x Editor widget. For example, there is currently no support editing related feature attributes. Also, it is not recommended to set a very low refreshInterval on an editable layer as this can potentially degrade performance within the application.

Property Details

A property indicating the current active workflow. This is either CreateFeaturesWorkflow or UpdateWorkflow.

allowedWorkflows String

An array of string values which specifies what end users are allowed to edit. For example, a feature layer with full editing privileges may be available. But you may only want the end user to have the ability to update existing features. Set the allowedWorkflows to only update.

Possible Value Description
create This allows the end user to create a new individual feature in the feature service. (deprecated as of 4.23, use create-features as noted below.)
create-features This allows the end user to create either individual or continuous features in the feature service. (Since 4.23)
update This allows the end user to update and/or delete features in the feature service.

These workflows are only enabled if the feature service allows these operations.

Possible Values:"create-features"|"create"|"update"

See also
Example
const editor = new Editor({
  view: view,
  allowedWorkflows: ["update"] // allows only updates and no adds
});

The ID or node representing the DOM element containing the widget. This property can only be set once. The following examples are all valid use cases when working with widgets.

Examples
// Create the HTML div element programmatically at runtime and set to the widget's container
const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
  view: view,
  container: document.createElement("div")
});

// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
  position: "top-right"
});
// Specify an already-defined HTML div element in the widget's container

const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
  view: view,
  container: basemapGalleryDiv
});

// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
  position: "top-right"
});

// HTML markup
<body>
  <div id="viewDiv"></div>
  <div id="basemapGalleryDiv"></div>
</body>
// Specify the widget while adding to the view's UI
const basemapGallery = new BasemapGallery({
  view: view
});

// Add the widget to the top-right corner of the view
view.ui.add(basemapGallery, {
  position: "top-right"
});
declaredClass Stringreadonly inherited

The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className.

headingLevel Number
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.20

Indicates the heading level to use for title of the widget. By default, the title (i.e. "Editor") is rendered as a level 4 heading (e.g. <h4>Editor</h4>). Depending on the widget's placement in your app, you may need to adjust this heading for proper semantics. This is important for meeting accessibility standards.

Default Value:4
See also
Example
// "Editor" will render as an <h3>
editor.headingLevel = 3;
iconClass Stringreadonly

The widget's default CSS icon class.

The unique ID assigned to the widget when the widget is created. If not set by the developer, it will default to the container ID, or if that is not present then it will be automatically generated.

label String

The widget's default label.

Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.24

Options to configure the labels shown next to each segment of the geometry being created or updated.

Known Limitation

Sketch labels are currently only supported when working with a SceneView.

layerInfos LayerInfo[]

An array of editing configurations for individual layers. It is possible to iterate through the map's editableLayers and configure these individual layers as needed.

If you have an editable feature layer but do not want the end user to do any type of editing, you can limit this by setting the enabled property to false.

See also
Example
const editor = new Editor({
  view: view,
  layerInfos: [{
    layer: featureLayer, // pass in the feature layer,
    formTemplate:  { // autocastable to FormTemplate
      elements: [
        { // autocastable to FieldElement
          type: "field",
          fieldName: "fulladdr",
          label: "Full Address"
        }
      ]
    },
    enabled: true, // Default is true, set to false to disable editing functionality.
    addEnabled: true, // Default is true, set to false to disable the ability to add a new feature.
    updateEnabled: false // Default is true, set to false to disable the ability to edit an existing feature.
    deleteEnabled: false // Default is true, set to false to disable the ability to delete features.
    attributeUpdatesEnabled: true // Default is true, set to false to disable the ability to edit attributes in the update workflow.
    geometryUpdatesEnabled: true // Default is true, set to false to disable the ability to edit feature geometries in the update workflow.
    attachmentsOnCreateEnabled: true //Default is true, set to false to disable the ability to work with attachments while creating features.
    attachmentsOnUpdateEnabled: true //Default is true, set to false to disable the ability to work with attachments while updating/deleting features.
  }]
});
snappingOptions SnappingOptionsautocast
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.19

The SnappingOptions for editing. Supports self snapping and feature snapping. Starting with version 4.23, the SnappingControls UI is automatically integrated into the Editor widget. Modify the snappingOptions if modifications are needed from what is provided in the default UI.

See also
Example
// Creates the Editor with SnappingOptions with no snapping UI
const editor = new Editor({
  view: view,
  snappingOptions: { // autocasts to SnappingOptions()
    enabled: true,
    featureSources: [{layer: streetsLayer}] // autocasts to FeatureSnappingLayerSource()
  }
});

// Add the widgets to the view
view.ui.add(editor, "top-right");
supportingWidgetDefaults SupportingWidgetDefaults

This property allows customization of supporting Editor widgets and their default behavior. These widgets include FeatureForm, FeatureTemplates, and the SketchViewModel.

This property is useful for basic overrides of the default widgets. There may be some limitations to what the Editor can do with these overridden properties. For example, the Editor will disable the multipleSelectionEnabled property in Sketch.defaultUpdateOptions no matter what is set within this property.

Indicates whether the Editor should default to use the deprecated CreateWorkflow. By default, the Editor allows creating multiple features in one workflow using CreateFeaturesWorkflow. Set this to true if needing to revert to the deprecated single feature creation workflow.

Default Value:false
See also

A reference to the MapView or SceneView. This view provides the editable layers for the Editor widget.

The view model for this widget. This is a class that contains all the logic (properties and methods) that controls this widget's behavior. See the EditorViewModel class to access all properties and methods on the widget.

visible Boolean inherited

Indicates whether the widget is visible.

If false, the widget will no longer be rendered in the web document. This may affect the layout of other elements or widgets in the document. For example, if this widget is the first of three widgets associated to the upper right hand corner of the view UI, then the other widgets will reposition when this widget is made invisible. For more information, refer to the CSS display value of "none".

Default Value:true
Example
// Hides the widget in the view
widget.visible = false;
visibleElements VisibleElements
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25

The visible elements that are displayed within the widget. This property provides the ability to turn individual elements of the widget's display on/off.

Example
editor.visibleElements = {
  sketchTooltipControls: false,
  snappingControls: true,
  snappingControlsElements: {
    featureEnabledToggle: false, // removes "Feature to feature" toggle
    layerList: false // removes Snapping layers list
  }
