Discovery Day v4 | ArcGIS Pro Attribute Rules and Arcade #3152

Closed jaime-mckeown closed 4 years ago

jaime-mckeown commented 4 years ago

Challenge or Solution

Migrating to ArcGIS Pro requires moving data that is currently using Attribute Assistant to Attribute Rules in Pro. Attribute Rules use Arcade for the expressions. Today, I need to start by learning more about Arcade, find good help documents, and eventually work on creating new Attribute Rules using a copy of the Markings GIS data as test data to work with.

Prerequisites

Copy the Markings GIS data into a FGDB to have test data to work with.

Deliverable

Creating Attribute Rules expressions that work.

Watched Suzanne's video on Arcade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIhHkTBYcmA&t=8s The content concentrated on using Arcade in AGOL for label expressions. I need to learn more about how to use it in conjunction with Attribute Rules.

Found a video online from 2019 Esri Developer Summit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2W1H0xr90o Video has good demos with examples of creating different Attribute Rules.

What was my mission?

To explore ArcGIS Pro Attribute Rules and the Arcade scripting language

Was it hard?

The integration into Pro with the Attribute Rules is great, but learning Arcade will be a little challenging. They say it is similar to JavaScript, but I'm not a developer. I do have a good knowledge base with Python to help.

What did you learn?
