Workaround

identifyParameters.layerDefinitions needs to be created manually as it is an optional parameter. This code does not produce the error reported: // create an array to hold layer definitions // each array item corresponds to a single layer def identifyParams.layerDefinitions = []; // populate the array identifyParams.layerDefinitions[2] = "PSTLADDRESS= '4686 Brightmore Rd'";The documentation will be updated to be more explicit.
