I am trying to select a feature (line) and edit its geometry only. (want to keep attributes and attachments of the feature the same).

  Hi Brendan,

   

  When you update a feature on ArcGIS Server it only updates the attributes that you provide and leaves the rest alone. So if you just provide just the objectid and a geometry, it won't update any attributes at all. The one exception would be if you've got the backing database set to make changes whenever an update is pushed through (eg, automatically adding a last edit time value)

   

  You could use a Create Feature activity to make a feature output that just has an objectid and a geometry, and then pass that into an Update Features activity. You'd need some upstream activities though for whatever logic you want to use to get the objectid, and something like a geometry picker to output a geometry to use.

  Is there a way to actually edit the Geometry on the map with a Geocortex Workflow?

  Something similar to web app builder Smart Editor, where vertex are drag'able and intersection segments can be split with a white circle) .

   

  At the moment the only way we can edit a geometry is to completely delete the old geometry and ask the user to re-draw the whole thing with a Geometry Picker activity.

   

  Is there a Geometry Editor activity?

  Hi Amanda, Is there a way to update a geometry with module workflow used in Mobile? We would very much like to do this. Now we Create a new feature, Delete the old and Update the new feature. A small hickup will cause this process to fail. We very much hope that there is a better way to do this.

  Thanks!
