UtilityNetworkTrace

The UtilityNetworkTrace widget provides a way to run traces in a Utility Network based on connectivity or traversability from set input flags. Input flags (starting points and barriers) can be set by clicking the view. Alternatively, the widget allows setting input flags programmatically on creation, or at runtime, by setting the flags property. The widget can execute one or multiple traces concurrently by selecting them from the trace types dropdown. Trace types can be preset in the widget programmatically on creation, or at runtime, by setting the selectedTraces property. tracetypes_flags

The trace results are returned as a selection or as graphics, or both (if aggregated geometry is set as a Result Type). result_select

The resulting selection of features can be visualized in a list organized by asset groups and asset types if the showSelectionAttributes property is true.

results_panels In the image above, the left image displays a list of trace results filtered by asset group. The center image displays a list of asset types for the asset group "Service Connection". The right image displays a list of features for the asset type "Residential".

Notes

Requires a WebMap published with a Utility Network and shared named trace configurations (Available at Enterprise 10.9).
The network topology must be enabled and the results of a trace are not guaranteed to be accurate if dirty areas are traced. The network topology for the area to be traced must be validated to reflect the most recent edits or updates made to the network.
Running traces on map services is not supported.
