Moving a point to a line
Need some assistance, I'm building a workflow that allows a user to right click on the map to create new points; problem is, I need those new points to be ‘snapped’ to the road line before it gets written to the feature service. When I create a point at an existing intersection, this is not an issue, a simple reverse geocode with the option to return intersection gets me what I need.
Where I'm currently struggling is when points are created mid-block, not at an intersection. I'm able to identify the closest road to the point by buffering the point and querying the roads layer. Where I'm having issues is when I try to identify the closest part of the road (ideally perpendicularly) and then moving the point.
Any Ideas would be appreciated.

The easiest way would be to enable snapping on the Road Lines layer. This will make sure that a selected point will be located on a road. (unless the point is too far from the road to begin with, but that's easily tested)
Alternatively, you could use the Find Nearest Coordinate activity (https://docs.vertigisstudio.com/workflow/latest/help/activities/nearest-coordinate-engine-task.html)
