Limit the number of edits on a web map configured using ArcGIS API for JavaScript

Summary

The ability to disable editing a web map is possible using JavaScript by implementing the drawToolbar.deactivate() and editToolbar.deactivate() functions in a script.

To set a certain number of allowable edits in a web map configured using ArcGIS API for JavaScript before editing is disabled, the script requires a counter with a preset number that triggers the deactivate function when the counter reaches the specified number.

Procedure

1. Set up a counter parameter for added graphic.

...
//Set up the counter for graphic added
count = count + 1; 
console.log("Graphic Count", count);
...

2. Set an if...else statement to a activate the drawToobar.deactivate() and editToolbar.deactivate() function with specified number of edits.

...
//Editing is enabled for 3 or less edit points
if(count <= 3) {
appliedEdits = selectedTemplate.featureLayer.applyEdits([newGraphic], null, null);
}
else
{
drawToolbar.deactivate();
editToolbar.deactivate();
alert(" You have successfully completed 3 edits!"); 
}
return count; 
 });
...

Note:
Edit the code segment, "if(count <= 3)" with the desired number of edits allowed.
