I'm using nodeJS to edit my Feature-Layer using REST API. My intention is to:
My problem: If I edit my feature definition to "capabilities" : "Create, Update, Delete"
as mentioned here, then any unauthorised user can edit my layer, while if I don't, I get:
[ 'This operation is not supported.', 'Unable to add the features.', 'This operation is not supported.' ]
Authentication is declered in the documentation.
My code:
require("cross-fetch/polyfill");
require("isomorphic-form-data");
const featureLayer = require('@esri/arcgis-rest-feature-layer');
const auth = require('@esri/arcgis-rest-auth');
const apiKey = new auth.ApiKey({key: 'some key...'});
featureLayer.applyEdits({
url: "https://services3.arcgis.com/someID/arcgis/rest/services/someName/FeatureServer/0",
adds: [{
geometry: { x: 120, y: 45 },
attributes: { indexCity: "alive" }
}],
authentication: apiKey
})
.then(response => {
console.log(response)
})
.catch(err => console.log(err.response.error.details));
I'm running my code using node example.js
in terminal.
One option is to make your edits to a private feature layer (that's editable), and then have a public (non-editable) view of that feature layer.
