Property Overview

Property Details

actionsCollection<(ActionButton|ActionToggle)>autocast

Autocasts from Object[]

A Collection of action or action toggle objects. Each object represents an action or function that may be executed by clicking the icon or image symbolizing them in the Popup. By default, every Popup has a zoom-to action styled with a magnifying glass icon . When this icon is clicked, the view zooms in four LODs and centers on the selected feature.

PopupTemplates do not have default actions. To override actions on the Popup using PopupTemplate see overwriteActions. Actions defined in a PopupTemplate will only appear in the Popup for features or layers that apply that particular PopupTemplate.

The order of each action in the popup is the same order in which they appear in the actions Collection.

The Popup event in Popup fires each time an action in the popup is clicked. This event should be used to execute custom code for each action clicked. For example, if you would like to add a zoom-out action to the PopupTemplate that zooms the view out several LODs, you would define the zoom-out code in a separate function. Then you would call the custom zoom-out function in the trigger-action event handler. See the sample code snippet below for more details on how this works.

Actions are defined with the properties listed in the ActionButton or ActionToggle class.

• Sample - Custom popup actions per feature

Example:

// Defines an action to zoom out from the selected feature
var zoomOutAction = {
  // This text is displayed as a tooltip
  title: "Zoom out",
  // The ID by which to reference the action in the event handler
  id: "zoom-out",
  // Sets the icon font used to style the action button
  className: "esri-icon-zoom-out-magnifying-glass"
};
// Adds the custom action to the PopupTemplate.
popupTemplate.actions.push(zoomOutAction);
// Apply this PopupTemplate to a layer (or graphic)
layer.popupTemplate = popupTemplate;
// This action will only appear in the popup for features in that layer
// The function to execute when the zoom-out action is clicked
function zoomOut() {
  // In this case the view zooms out two LODs on each click
  view.goTo({
    center: view.center,
    zoom: view.zoom - 2
  });
}

// This event fires for each click on any action
// Notice this event is handled on the default popup of the View
// NOT on an instance of PopupTemplate
view.popup.on("trigger-action", function(event){
  // If the zoom-out action is clicked, fire the zoomOut() function
  if(event.action.id === "zoom-out"){
    zoomOut();
  }
});

contentString|Object[]|Function|Promise

The template for defining and formatting a popup's content. Content may be defined with one of four types of values.

• String - A popup's content can be a simple text or string value referencing field values or Arcade expressions. Expressions must be defined in the expressionInfos property. These values are referenced via placeholders. Within the string, placeholders are denoted by {fieldName} or {expression/expressionName} which are used to specify which values from field attributes or expressions to display within certain locations in the string. When the application runs, substitution occurs and the placeholder is replaced with the actual attribute or expression value for the selected feature. The string can also include HTML markup and formatting functions.
• Popup elements - You can also display content as popup elements defined as an array of Objects. These elements can be used individually or combined. The order in which they are set determines how they display within the popup. See the items below describing each element.
  • text - Object that provides descriptive text as content. This object must be defined using the text popup element specification table.
  • media - Array of objects used to display media such as charts and/or images. This object must be defined using the media popup element specification table.
  • fields - Array of fieldInfos objects. If fieldInfos is not set directly within the content property, the popup will display whatever is set in the PopupTemplate.fieldInfos property. This must be defined using the fields popup element specification table.
  • attachments - Array of attachmentInfos objects listed in the popup. This object must be defined using the attachments popup element specification table.
• promise - The PopupTemplate's content may also be defined with a promise that resolves to any of the above-mentioned elements. This is useful for cases when you run a task or execute a query and want to display the results in the popup. Simply pass the promise to the popupTemplate's content and ensure that it resolves to a string or other popup element.
• function - Content may be defined with a JavaScript function that returns any of the above-mentioned elements. This is handy when your popup requires additional processing or functionality than what is provided with the four content types listed above. For example, let’s assume that you would like to display charts using third-party JavaScript libraries or categorize information into separate tabs. In these cases, you can use a function that returns either a string, a reference to an HTML element, a popup element, or a promise. When the feature is clicked, the feature is passed as an argument to the function and provides access to the feature’s graphic and attributes. The function then executes and returns a value to display in the popup template. It is also possible to check a specific feature attribute and determine whether to apply a function based on its value. Out-of-the-box formatting functions can be used to format date, time, and number values. The syntax for using an out-of-the-box formatting function is: {field-name:format-function-name(option-a: value, option-b: value)}

The formatter functions are described below:

Type	Description
DateString	Formats the date into a human-readable format. Supports the following options: hideTime: false - When true shows time. Default value is false. local: false - Displays date and time in the local time zone. Default value is false. When false the date will display in UTC. systemLocale: false - Displays date and time in the system locale (local time zone). Default value is false.
DateFormat	Converts date fields into a human-readable format using dojo/date/locale.format method. Supports the same options as dojo/date/locale.format. The following snippets show some usage examples: {DATE_FIELD:DateFormat} produces 3/8/08 4:00 PM. {DATE_FIELD:DateFormat(selector: 'date', fullYear: true)} produces 4/8/2009.
NumberFormat	Formats numbers into various formats using the dojo/number.format method. Supports the same set of options as dojo/number.format. The following snippets show examples of usage pattern examples: {Magnitude:NumberFormat} produces 4.23456. {Magnitude:NumberFormat(places:2)} produces 4.23.

Out-of-the-box formatting functions and custom functions are supported as of version 4.1.

expressionInfosObject[]

Since: ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.4

An array of objects that reference Arcade expressions. These expressions evaluate to either a number or a string value on a feature-by-feature basis at runtime. The values display within the view's popup as if they are field values. They can be displayed in a table using the fieldInfos of the popupTemplate's content or referenced within a simple string. See the object specification table below for a description of the properties that may be set in each object.

Properties:

name String The name of the expression. This is used to reference the value of the given expression in the popupTemplate's content property by wrapping it in curly braces and prefacing it with expression/ (e.g. {expression/expressionName}). See the code snippets below for more examples.

title String optional The title used to describe the value returned by the expression in the popup. This will display if the value is referenced in a fieldInfos table.

expression String An Arcade expression evaluating to either a string or a number. This expression can reference field values using the $feature global variable and perform mathematical calculations and logical evaluations at runtime.

returnType String optional Indicates the return type of the Arcade expression. This is an optional property. Possible Values: string | number

Examples:

// Displays two values returned from Arcade expressions
// in a table within the popup when a feature is clicked
layer.popupTemplate = {
  content: [{
    type: "fields",
    fieldInfos: [{
      fieldName: "expression/college"
    }, {
      fieldName: "expression/nocollege"
    }]
  }],
  expressionInfos: [{
    name: "college",
    title: "Completed a college degree",
    expression: "$feature.bachelor + $feature.master + $feature.doctorate"
