Change Editor to use the Changeset Diff Upload #89

Closed ajturner closed 9 years ago

ajturner commented 9 years ago

Change from using the Element API to instead use the Changeset Diff Upload

Per @pnorman at SOTMUS 2015 the single Element is not preferred and likely will be going away in the future

The future is not going to be the immediate future, but the diff upload should be faster with fewer individual requests as well as more resilient in cases of interrupted connections.

This functionality is already implemented under the "Bundle Data Upload(s)" parameter for the uploader geoprocessing tool. It should be the recommended way to upload local edits. If you run into upload error the user can uncheck the option so the conflict resolution editor can detect and address the potential versioning issues.
