External Command that starts feature-attribute editing

Is there any external command that can be passed to "run external command" activity to start editing a selected feature's attributes? If so, what is the appropriate parameter that should be used with it?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Hani

  Just checked the API, not that I see, but why not use a workflow? We find our users prefer a workflow interface. We can prepopulate data easier, perform data consistency checks, and not have to expose the Feature Service in the map. 

  • Create a workflow with an input parameter of either OBJECTID or other unique id.
  • Add a hyperlink to the Feature Description that calls the workflow and passes in the search key.
  • Query the feature to edit
  • Use a Display Form to give the user access only to the fields they need to edit but also do any data pre- or post-processing, like capture user id and modification data.
  • Save the data back to the feature class.

  Hi Hani, 

   

  If you look at the API reference included with the viewer template download file, there is a command called "ShowFeatureAttributeEditor" that should do what you are looking for.

  Thanks Carmen,

   

  What is the proper parameter for this command? Itried featureset, but it did not work.

   

  Also, I am not able to find the API reference document, I only have the following files:

   

  Administrator and Developer Guide, Installation Guide, and Release Notes

   

  Best,

  Hi Hani, 

   

  Were you able to get this to work in your workflow?
